The Museum of Portable Sound in UK https://museumofportablesound.com/ is what it sounds like. Consumer electronics evolve, blow up, and die out. Here are Jecklin Float electrostatic headphones from 1975.

These have been the punchline of my pictorial jokes more often than even shameless I care to admit.

Stax Lamda Pro's weren't really much better. Big rectangles on the side of your head. A bit more conventional headband. Most comfortable phones I've had actually. I owned a pair for a decade or so. Had to use a power amp to run them. Used a Sumo Andromeda on them for a while, and a C-J MV45 for a time too.
