Having faithfully read the numerous posts on head phones a while back on
this reflector, I decided to take a chance on the Sennheiser HD-202 head
phones. Prior to these phones I have been using the Radio Shack Titanium
stereo headphones. So here is my 2 cents...
The HD-202 phones seem to have a bit more "punch" especially at the low
frequencies and therefore make cw easier to "hear". they seem to block out
room noise to a greater level then the Titanium phones. The HD-202 phones
are much warmer to wear and this becomes uncomfortable in short order at
temperatures above 69 degrees F., whereas the Titanium phones are cool and
light to wear.
So in conclusion, I recommend the Sennheiser HD 202 phones with the hadi
cable clip, for serious attentive listening, and Radio Shack Titanium phones
for extended listening under less stressful conditions.
Maybe a pair of Sony ear buds would be cool and effective, once I got over
having my ears filled.
