As a lot of our followers are aware, our love of high-end headphones has been growing over the years along with our passion for all things portable audio related.
In the current remote working climate the demand for full size headphones has increased and is becoming the norm for home workers but that leaves the dilemma of where to store your beloved audio treasures.
So casual listeners and audiophiles are keen to accessories their Headphones with custom after market cables and luxury stands to store their headphones.
This is where the awesome team at Room’s audio online come in, the premium Headphone stand company from the home of precision engineering – Germany.
Known and respected by many in the industry, Rooms audio online have been producing Headphone stands since 1989 primarily for the Luxury Hi-fi, High end professional, recording and broadcasting market but in recent years the audiophile crowd has gravitated towards them also.
So it is with great delight that the team at earphonia.com have been given the opportunity to take a hands on look at their flagship Headphone stands, the FS Pro VC Series Headphone stands.
Product features:
- VC Series (Variable Concept)

- Height adjustment
- Maximum slip and tilt safety
- Dimensions (W x D x H): 115 x 185 x 260 – 300 mm
- Weight: 1.5 kg

We were provided 2 units one in Matt Black and the other in Matt Silver but they also have another model in White available.
The product name contains VC, which stands for Variable Concept, this is the centre metal shaft that gives the option to vary the specific height that the ‘resting’ headphones can lower and raise to. You can raise the stand from the lowest height of 26cm to around 30.00CM for the largest height, measured from bottom of the base. You can adjust the shaft incrementally across this 4CM upper height range to suite your specific height of suspension needed for your range of Headphones, as we know Headphones come in many different shapes and sizes.
The build quality is excellent and you can tell that quality control is a major aspect for Room’s audio online, as can be seen with the attention to design aesthetic and precision manufacturing on the FS Pro VC stands.
The stands are primarily 2 pieces the main base and the top curve variable stand, secured by the circular dial which clamps in the bolt, which is rotated by hand when adjusting the stands height.
When an appropriate height is selected, the bolt, when secured is tight and stable, forming the stand into a solid singular unit of German engineering elegance.
Not only are these designed in Germany but they are also manufactured there as well to make sure the highest of standards can be attained.
The earphonia.com team certainly are impressed with the build quality, these are very solid and well made.
The majority of the stand is built from solid high grade steel, which is why each stand is around 1.5KG in weight.
In conjunction with the carefully chosen centre of gravity placement due to the curved aspect to the design, wide base and narrow top, these stands are very stable and there seems no chance of these toppling over.
The underside of the stands have 4 rubber feet, to raise the stand and also provide more resistance to movement.
3 soft foam circular discs are attached on the top of each of the curved top component of the stand.
This tactile soft material has a non invasive grip to help them to hold the Headphones headband in place and avoid any slipping or tilting once the headphone is placed on the stand. These do not leave any residue or debris on the headphones once removed.
iBasso Headphones – SR1 and SR2, each have very different ear pad sizes and both work well using the Rooms audio online headphone stands.
The rich bold red Fostex TH900 headphone suspended in all its glory with even weight distribution.
HifiMan HE1000 V2 ‘Egg shaped’ ear pieces, looks awesome resting securely on the curved top band of the versatile VC series stands.
Perfect fit even for the more obscure shaped dual split band headphones found on the the Pioneer SE-L40 vintage beautiful headphone.
iBassoAudio SR1 securely resting on the solid minimal looking German design Headphone stand, providing excellent centre of gravity balance.
HifiMan HE1000 V2 and HifiMan Susvara flagship headphones with band suspension and both circular and oval ear pieces adjusted perfectly using the solid VS stands.
As you can tell the earphonia.com team are very pleased with the Rooms audio online headphone stands, extremely well built, solid, functional and with a minimal elegance that radiates quality.
We certainly will be getting a few more in future to help with our Headphone inventory.
Rooms audio online does justice to the demanding expectation of German engineering and design, with their excellent headphone stands.
