Further Information:

Good condition McIntosh MHP1000 headphones with factory stand. Unfortunately, I misplaced / lost the original factory box (and factory supplied cables that were in the box), during a house move. However, I was using a Cardas Audio Parsec cable which is a significant improvement over the supplied cables and hadn’t used the factory cables since purchasing the Cardas. The Cardas is included in the sale and is 2m long with 6.3mm plug at the amp end. I’ll also include a high quality Grado 6.3mm to 3.5mm adapter, a Meze Audio 3m long cable with 3.5mm amp plug, and copy of the manual.

These headphones live up to the hype and IMO sit somewhere between the Focal Radiance and Focal Utopia I also own, but being much closer to the Utopia in quality. Crystal clear and beautiful sound stage with tight bass.

No longer available and super rare on the used market.
