Hi Fred and all, Missed the original postings...
My interests lie in contesting and DXing, so my headphone preferences are influenced by these activities. Long hours in a contest for me mean light headphones. The K2 has a lower audio drive versus some of the other rigs that require much more power, so this is important to keep in mind when you chose a set as well. I've found that earphones made for portable devices like Sony Walkman's work the best. Earbuds are nice, but pull out too easily. I don't like the airline type that hang on your ear either. So something with an over the head strap is best. For me the best phones are Vertical in-the-ear Headphones MDR-W14L (around U$13). They are 16 ohms and low drive. The only thing I don't like about them is that the cord is too bloody short!
