These are AWFUL headsets for ham radio -- VERY heavy and uncomfortable.
A few guys in our contest club fell for the hype and bought them, and
they hated them. I tried them on at a meeting and found them very
uncomfortable. They're also VERY expensive as compared to other much
better headsets.
If you want a headset without a mic, the Sony MDR7506 ("pro") or
consumer equivalent work really well with a K3, and with every other ham
rig I've used them with. The Yamaha CM500 is equally comfortable and
good sounding, the boom mic sounds great with a K3, and can be bought
for less than $50, shipping included. .
