Thomas, I doubt you have Radio Shack in Denmark, but I found a very nice set of "walkman" type headphones there, with Titanium drivers and a volume control, during one of their 1/2 price sales. The phones only cost me $12.00 US and work quite well with GPL. I have been looking at some enclosed Sony headphones though. I do miss having the use of the sub-woofer when I use headphones. -- don GPL Programs for the Converted Tracks: http://www.ianparker.co.uk/gpl/bapom/

The sound quality is amazing, a huge improvement over my worn out (quite literally!) HD 480's. Andrew McP
I got a pair of Aiwa enclosed phones and they work quite well. The price is right too for only about $35 USD. Chris

haha you're the man! i use HD545 and RS4 wireless for all ***. The wireless sets are very nice nowadays. [link lost in import] or [link lost in import] usually have good sennh deals. The 545s were 'refurb' for $90 and good as new. rms
"Thomas Soerensen" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:952eu6$ld2$[email hidden]... > Which headphones do you use? Koss PortaPro. Very light, awesome sound for an "open" design. I've owned a few pairs since the mid-80s for portable use and home audio. I hate closed designs... like to hear the phone ring or the wife coming into the room :-) Lifetime warranty, they replaced my earpads for the cost of shipping ($5 or so). Dale.
I have a pair of Koss sw-30's that have served me well for the past 3 yrs. Good sound range(more base then lighter headphones) reliable boom mic for Roger Wilco and they're durable. Got mine for under $40. Radio Shack was selling the same headset only they are black and carry the Optimus name. I bought mine when my neighbor said he thought he heard a thunder storm approaching one night and closed his windows. I confessed it was me flying around blowing stuff up on my PC. Jim D.

Unless you have one of those "Hands Free" cell phone gadgets on your dashboard, I suggest you just stop answering the phone while driving! ;);) - Matt

Which headphones do you use? Which are the best for the Ferrari > engine sound in GPL? I use perfectly ordinary Walkman headphones. I do have a pair of big-time Sennheisers, but I find they're overkill for something like this. +Cinquo
Sennheiser are fantastic, particularly the expensive ones. "Thomas Soerensen" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:952eu6$ld2$[email hidden]...

I have the Sony MDR-V600. Superb sound, which I didn't really discover until I used them on my stereo - made my audiophile (but very old) Time Window speakers sound shabby by comparsion. You can find them from online sellers for around $100, which is a great price for the sound quality you get.
