Below are excerpts from the review: The screws are made of genuine steel, while the support rod is made of aluminum, with a genuine leather and aluminum alloy head beam frame. The stand is quite tall at 270mm, and the base frame has a large diameter of 102mm. As ddHIFI is a proper company for accessories, the best part about the HS270 is that it is about an inch taller than most headphone stands, which offers more space for the headphone cables, to avoid stressing the connectors at the headphone side.
