My current favorites for CW are a pair of Koss UR-15s that I got at Radio Shack, in a combination pack with a pair of in-ear Koss phones, for $15 total. They are very light, cover my whole ear, and are comfortable for extended periods. They are a little less sensitive than most, and of course your radio should have some sort of high frequency roll-off, as with any stereo HiFi phones, or the band noise will be very tiring. A couple of 2 uf caps to ground inside the plug can do the job if you need a way to add that (thanks K2UA).
