Headphone Amp

My headphones with headphone amplifier with tungsten lamp (not shown) for use so that I can see the controls, I took this using my Pentax K-S2 with Pentax-F SMC 50mm lens at f4.6, ISO 800 for 8 seconds.

Nice! And Magnetic Planar headphones, back in the day I had a pair of Wharfedale's ground breaking Isodynamic headphones they were so inefficient that they had to be connected directly to the power amplifier's output! But they sounded great, alas in the end one of the capsules failed.

Ah Yes..!
Here's someone who has a lot of knowledge with audio equipment, thank you for the comment the reason I started using headphones is I don't have the room at the moment for all my audio equipment, also you can get almost the same stereo sound as using pre/power amps with speakers.
Going back to the image it took me a couple of shots to get the effect I wanted especially to show the tube fluorescent lit up but it's all about getting comments which could help.
