Only vintage Realistic headphones I personally can recommend are the Pro-50 as they were made by AKG (rebadged K250).
Just need to be sure you got something that can drive high impedance 'phones as they are 600 ohm cans.
I own two pairs of these and they are fantastic sounding headphones that also have a crazy cool vintage look.
They're a perfect match to any vintage silverface rig.
They're the ones on the left vvvv below.
On the right are a pair of AKG K240 Sextett (also 600 ohm cans).
Hoepfully someone else here can shed some light on those Nova 10 for you.
FWIW
