Since I work in pro audio, I have a selection of very good headphones laying around. So far, everything Ive tried works with the K3. It all comes down to creature comforts and, to some extent, their ability to reduce room noise. The pro-quality in-ear earphones made by Etymotic Research and Shure are better than most for both comfort and noise isolation. They are passive. I also like my Sony MDR7506, and the comparable consumer version with a different number that is otherwise identical. I agree with Tom about the Sennheiser 280s, but the Yamaha CM500 is plenty good enough for me, producing great contest audio, at about 1/5 the cost. And yes, anything with Heils name on it is wildly overpriced.
