After all of the discussion on here about "WHY" some guys might
perceive "noise" where others do not, why are 'phones with these specs
even being considered for a K3 (unless your own hearing cuts off at
4kc).


Frequency Range
    20 Hz - 20 kHz

Microphone Type
    Dynamic

Mic Frequency Response
    100 Hz - 20 kHz

Impedance
    Headset: 120 Ohms
    Microphone: 600 Ohms

Give me 'phones designed for "communication" any day of the week (EG:
Kenwood HS-5, which is what I've have used for ham radio for "ever").
