That's for a pack of five. Got a better one than that!

http://www.russandrews.com/superclamp-kit/

Varistor - typical unit price 50p - in quantity about 22p
Schottky diode - about 30p - in quantity maybe 10p

But better still read the benefits..................!!!

OR

Put these components into a 13A plug (price 75p) and you can increase
the overall price by 242%!!

AND still they buy from him...............

D'oh!

Yes indeed, and do they also offer an ear testing and repair service as
well?
Most of us suffer from imbalanced ears and tinnitus and lots of other
problems, so attempting to actually use phones that are better than good is
probably a bit of a waste of time.

Somebody once told me that the only way to get headphones to work properly
was the clamp the head so tightly that most people would find them
impossible to use for long periods. it all has to do with the loading of the
drivers.

I don't have an attitude problem. If you have a problem with my

"Orpheus is the first electrostatic headphone with a Cool Class A
MOS-FET high voltage amplifier integrated into the ear cups."

So what are the eight Sennheiser-branded valves for?

Do you have to get yoour head remodelled to fit the phones or does a person
come around and custom fit them to your current head.
Sounds a bit like this item has been taken from a lost chapter of Hitch
Hikers guide to the Galaxy.
