KX1 headphones

k6dgw
Any recommendations for headphones for the KX1?  I'm currently using a
set from a Sony Discman, and even with the AF gain up all the way, it
really isn't loud enough for me (left a lot of my hearing on the other
side of the world).  Lighter would also be nice for the Spartan Sprint.

73,

Elecraft recommends the Sony MDR series.  Get out your glasses and look
for "Sensitivity: 108dB/mW".   There are two Sony products that say this
and the cheaper ones are fine.  Both have a nice case good for portable
use. Do a google search for KX1 MDR.

Koss the "PLUG".  Lots of volume and nice tone.
