I would never recommend the CM500 for music. I tried that after my Grado 
headphones died and quickly switched to Apple earbuds. Then I ordered new, 
upgraded Grado headphones.

I’m always surprised at all the ham-specific headsets when there are actual 
professional broadcast headsets from Audio-Technica and Sennheiser with real 
vocal mics.
