my friends it is finally here that one's empty the solution to the ultimate in first world problems how to store your racks upon racks of headphones in such a way that you will be easily able to pick out exactly the one you want for exactly the genre of music that you are in the mood to listen to and we are taking it a step further so we're going to convert an ordinary corner of the office into the ultimate headphone auditioning room and I'll be doing it with the help of my wife and my infant daughter today okay so before we get started Yvonne's unpacking the wack ton of these EBA zero to s that we have I feel like this product deserves a little bit of history because this is not not your everyday headphone holder I mean yes it holds headphones but it's special I had a problem I was trying to get all my headphones off my desk and up onto the wall so they could be more organized and like look really cool and not take out so much space so we announced a contest in partnership with Silverstone where members of our community submitted their 3d model designs my mini factory printed for us free of charge those guys are super cool all of the top designs and then sent them to us to evaluate in person which ones we thought was best so Matthew the doll ended up having the best balance between something that looked really clean and professional and something that could actually be manufactured so the way it mounts is you kind of throw it on the wall a little something like that you throw this on a little something like that okay I'm doing this from why don't we just why don't we just get started then I buy power and MSI's new lineup of gaming laptops feature Intel seventh generation core i7 processors check them out at the link below so the idea is that whatever cell phone or computer or whatever device someone brings in here they would be able to plug it in to the amp and DAC of their choice and plug in the headphones of their choice for the most custom possible listening experience so wow this thing is really crappy where do you even buy furniture this crappy it's fantastic I love their packing list one cheap bag got it yes it's pronounced exactly like you think this is the Valhalla - so I'm not actually sure which tubes go where but holy cow look at that build shoot I'm losing track of which adapters go with what this one's 16 ok that's ok everything's labeled here's the other big dog this is the Jochen I'm in Norse mythology it's the land of the giants so this maybe this should just be a storage shelf then so it's 5 4 & 5 which means this is actually going to take up like a wack ton of space like almost the whole wall so I want we lay them out on the floor ok so that's pretty much the spacing that we need then how high do you think you could realistically go before it becomes a problem hey Taryn can I borrow you for a minute love his enthusiasm you gotta just prototype well I can reach higher than that well how high can you I can reach to here does that seem to horizontally spaced out no I'm saying if I don't compress them more we're gonna be watching with we're gonna be watching with it letterboxed I'll use I'll use video terminology I know what you're talking about so we don't want black to see black bars right so they're still 60 high but they're less wide so it's letterboxed and has black bars please don't use analogy yes compress them together okay great so we won't compress them so mark your 13-inch spot so the first thing I need to do is draw a level line yeah you can hold the level actually I can probably just use a gravity no like I can't easily oh yes I can no I can use gravity I'll use gravity no no it's fine all right that's not good look how bent it is you know I don't have the mark you know what I'm gonna fold the level level it'll put the cut that I need to draw a line along the ruler so ruler on the mark and then the level needs to be level it's on the markets not leveled okay I'm just gonna draw a light line does this even earase have we checked given we shouldn't have all of these all over the table oh that's like level ish what you mean it communitive we've had a level you are so talkative oh you must get up daddy actually we need to do we need to do the whole grid so Brandon you might as well cut for him a few minutes here so day two of a task that we really thought would be finished a lot sooner the ah we have to take these off because otherwise we're gonna like we're gonna see them from the bottom they're just gonna have these ugly barcodes on them I don't think that's the end of the world yeah that looks stupid no one's gonna be like that looking at the bar well you don't have to be I mean look you will obviously see it so the way it goes together is actually pretty simple you just kind of pop these guides in here well and you don't do that it's only stripped a little okay so five down 13 to go hey honey are you microwaving your shoes are you gonna open it breasts get laid it's not ready oh okay are you giving her a power tool I'm not giving her a power tool I'm helping her operate the power tools you press that button oh look you put the screw in motor crews should I hold them in my hand would that work better okay so we marked out our entire grid in pencil we're just gonna go ham and put drywall screws straight into the wall so basically three screws then we slide that onto there look at that it's like it's professionally installed or something I'm liking this check that out face mouth yeah daddy did put those in his mouth but you don't put those in your mouth okay she probably learned the microwaving shoes from you oh come on now she learned anything about cooking it's from you can you pass me three of those honey that's a measuring tape darling I said my helper who passes new screws oh that's not a screw with the black ones how many of that there's a little magnetic thing yep that's better than the mouth and the hand I mean for certain things are they level how many of them are there uh there's ten of these silver ones and eight of the brown ones trying to do rhinos with babies is not easy it's fine I got the door I got more headphones for you okay over under over under Oh actually I didn't do it that way I put the cable through here that's not how you do it well I don't know at least it won't fall off I can do it properly now - we'll make this a PSA this is how you use a velcro tie you take one part of the wire you run it through then you secure it to that spot on the wire that way it doesn't get lost perfect every time perfect dish so the fact that we're three short means that your count was off thought you were supposed to be good at math aren't you our accountant one accounting class does not make you an accountant the fact that you hold a position called accountant at our company makes you an accountant it don't make you a good play I don't call myself an accountant but you're our accountant I happen to do accounting that does not make me an accountant I was sure there was a switch in this room on the drawing remember when I asked the contractor to figure out if they drywalled over the switch well I guess they drywalled over the switch because I have no idea where this I knew it see there's no switch for this light there's one over there - we drywalled over a light switch the original plan was to actually have it on this wall which is light purple with a light right there so if wise had actually listened to me and put it where it was supposed to go maybe it wouldn't look so dark well we couldn't have put it on that wall wasn't gonna fit on that wall with the thing we went through this you agreed with me no not really I just went along with your plan anyway changing the subject entirely we're done what do you want me to do sorry what's your head we have two more oh yeah we have two more decks so Silverstone sent us what are these they're EB o1e and EB Oh three this looks like ventilation holes so I guess this probably shouldn't sit on top of it and we should really anchor that shelf to the wall before you put some more stuff on there oh sure okay fine I think this basically just has to be a storage shelf yeah yeah I don't think having everything plugged in here makes any sense if you're gonna have to bring your device over here okay so it's just finishing touches timed out I just need to put this here put in a couple drywall anchors oh crap we hit a stud that's a drywall anchor brilliant now we have like a gigantic gaping hole in the wall yep no tilt perfect alright good so this is pretty much it well personally I think I am gonna go for the LCD 2s because I have never heard these off of a tube amp and I have already pre-selected the valhalla - tube amp its tubular yo you can just plug an audio source directly into the amp mission accomplished well this does not about how they look Eady it's about how they sound and they sound very good by the way I can listen to Taylor Swift if I want to I'm a strong independent woman okay so let's get some other people to try a cornice um okay look do the cats 100 cuz it's the only one it looks different oh this was double current dog seat oh yeah this is what I did okay it's ready ish just why did she do it this foot Vaughn I can't wait yeah just hold on hold on as your Katy Perry ever sounded better yeah can you actually try some good headphones so let's let Dennis be the judge this project success yeah I like it that's right but maybe we get it more RGB here okay John come in this isn't a prank as a child the headphone wall oh yes these definitely okay isn't this the worst experience ever no don't don't okay why don't you listen first and then decide anything I thought such a headphone slob right now is clear but that's about the most interesting act thing I can say about it it's clear actually here by the dt9 is anybody's I have 880 250 ohms on my desk by this so these are a little bit different yeah these are very engaging I like them the other ones I feel like you're always losing something in the low-end but these ones are a little more fun okay so give me a score on a scale of one to ten cool project you plan to use it oh.hello 11 absolutely yeah yeah that's right ed I eat it's gonna hate okay we've got our next test subject do I register is anything wrong here and she's anything you want oh it's like Willy Wonka's candy shop but all they have is headphones and you can't eat them and you don't take them home this is school on a scale of one to ten what do you think of this project pretty cool you'll use it yeah this is really cool whoa as I drop these headphones eight out of ten only because if you go to like Best Buy our future shop or whatever they have it already plugged in and then you just push the button on which one to change to but they don't have a bunch of different sources but you can try out an experiment with true yes yeah I guess so it's good I like it do you use Amazon we do we think they're great we put links to the Amazon purchase page in the descriptions of almost every video we create and you can check out where to buy almost anything we feature down there I mean up down there like down there below the video they also have Amazon Prime which costs $99 us annually and gets you access to a ton of cool features like prime now which is free to our delivery or scheduled delivery on over 10,000 items in select areas as well as prime video which is unlimited streaming of movies and TV episodes they've got twitch prime included now which gives you exclusive discounts on physical games and new releases and of course the classic free 2-day or same-day delivery to specific zip codes and more so check it out at the link in the video description so there you have it people like the project if you guys just like this video you can hit that like button but if you liked it hit the like button get subscribed and maybe check out where to buy the stuff we featured at the link in the video description a huge shout out to Silverstone for actually producing this headphone holder that allowed us to make this whole project possible I think it looks absolutely fantastic I'm a little biased I'll let you guys be the judge and a huge shout out to audio for providing us with all of their stamps and DACs for everybody to you know listen to on their lunch breaks or after hours or what ever yes that's pretty much it get subscribed
