What are you all using for a headphone stand when your headphones are not in use? Show us a picture...

I'm looking for a headphone stand that will not deform the fit or pads of my headphones. (Audeze LCD-3 and Focal Clear)

Thanks,
Martin

My thinking is a soft memory foam or styrofoam angled block would be the best solution. It would mitigate the pad degradation we see with long-term stands without relying completely on the suspension strap. The suspension strap will still wear down (especially with LCDs) but that's relatively replaceable with audeze selling the replacement parts.

I honestly keep my LCDs in their pelican case when not in use. Currently have my modified Ether CX out and I just put them on the carpet under my desk when I'm being lazy. It's unlikely I figure it cause's less gravity strain on leather suspension bands and pads over time. I tend to prefer carrying cases for storage in general. I also have cats so headphone stands are dangerous.

I like that solution. It elevates headphones to the level of fine art, which is really where they belong.
