The stand won't mar your headphones or your table surface

Finally got something to hang my headphones on besides the corner of my monitors

Other reviewers have noted this, too, but I hasten to add that your headphones will look good on here even if they are not aluminum

In testing the stand, it holds up my heavier headphones well

Overall it's wonderful, I have the space gray MBP with a new set of space gray headphones from B&W and wanted an excellent quality, space gray, and beautiful headphone stand to put on my desk.

It not only looks snazzy, but it's a functional piece that compliments your headphones

The hook and the base have a silicone mat to protect your headphone and table
