A couple of years ago, a pair of Radio Shack headphones I had been using
broke and no amount of epoxy seemed to be able to keep them together. While
in the local Walgreen's (drug store), I noticed an audio accessories display
near the film lab. I found a pair of Sony headphones (over the ear) for
$20, MDR-CD60.
Since I hadn't replaced the RS phones, I figured these would work until I
bought a 'real' pair.
I've been using them ever since.
I even went back a couple of weeks later and bought a back-up pair.
Audio sounds good, headphone cushions don't cause excessive sweating,
headphone element fabric if off the ear, and they are light.
They seem fragile, but I haven't broken them yet, in spite of snagging the
cable and pulling them to the floor from time to time. I don't think they
weigh more than 6 or 8 oz;
I know there are more 'professional' amateur headphones out there. These
seemed like a readily available and economical alternative.
