[GCARC] Headphones recommendation

[William C. Szkromiuk]

I might add one word of warning for using dual headsets and noise cancelling
ones. If you are in a busy noisy environment consider if you are also in a
dangerous one. What you cannot hear you cannot avoid. 

I saw a young lady get pulverized by a bike messenger downtown Philly. He
yelled a warning, she did not hear him.

I agree with Frank for the Yamaha CM500, for the price can't be beat.

But for Jennifer I would recommend a pair of noise - cancelling earbuds (no
mic). I bought a new pair or Sennheiser CX280'S on amazon last year, under
$50, but listed over $100. You should be able to find those or similar for
under $50.

The Yamaha phones have been very popular for HF with the Elecraft crowd for
a few years now.  May be a bit of overkill for a computer.   I'm not a big
headset fan but when I use them I like them. Excellent communication audio.
