Best detecting headphones are...

[silversniper]

I am looking to upgrade my headphones; the Koss headphones that came with my Explorer are uncomfortable to me.

So... what are the best headphones out there for our hobby? Heard alot of great things about the Killer B's???? What do you think?

Thanks!!!

This topic is a hard one to nail down. What works for one person will not for another. I have a set of Sun Ray Pro Golds, and a set of RAT phones. I like both. They are both easy phones to use and work well with my big noggin and X-Terra. I tend to use the RATs more often. That being said I have heard good things about the Killer B's also, Beale.

The only things I've heard against any of the higher end phones is whether they fit too tight if you have a larger head and/or can be quite warm on a hot summer day. I've been happy with Gray Ghosts, but haven't had the opportunity to use any of the others.

If your hearing is not what it use to be or you are in an area with lot's of back-ground noise
you might want to think about a set of " BLACK WIDOW'S ". Very good for those
conditions. They also have a high noise limiter switch and can be used both mono or stereo .

I just bought some killer bs about two weks ago and love them .I use them on my x-terra 50 , but they have a switch to make them work on my bounty hunter. The sound is real clear.
