Interessant dat ze hier (zoals iedereen herkent) HB-7 koptelefoons dragen die vnl voor militair gebruik waren.

A surprising sight but maybe not *that* surprising: Skipping the pre-war history, on the US market, the first commercially available headphones for music (Koss SP-3) were introduced only 1958 and they were quite expensive. Also, headphone usage in studios just had become a thing because “overdubbing” was still a new production concept that had just begun to pick up momentum and having larger quantities of performers needing them for monitoring was a new challenge. I guess the money for a single pair of Koss cans bought them their entire stock of surplus headphones.



Also, if I got that right, “HB-7” was just the designator for the head band number 7, which could be equipped with different “receivers” for different purposes (e.g. ANB-H1 , R14) and separate cushions for them. They were likely all 600 Ohms or similar, so it was relatively easy to have a whole bunch of them wired in parallel in a breakout box hooked up to pretty much any kind of amplifier.

Mooi voor de cultuur dat een aantal mensen weer naar concerten en dergelijke gaat.

Ik mijd nog een poosje grote groepen. Mijn zusje die alle prikken en boosters heeft gehad ging laatst naar twee salsafeesten en een paling-eetfestijn in een vissersdorp (niet handig) en had daarna hetzelfde als Mick Jagger
