Yes, I have several pair here in the shack. I ordered mine with the
mink fur liners. The natural oil in the mink fur allows extra
conductivity for the uneventful egress of electrostatic discharges,
thereby preserving your listening pleasure. They work especially well
with my Collins preproduction prototype SN:007 51J-6. 

The tight, but yet comfortable, fit of the Helena Rubinstein headsets
makes for many hours of comfortable radio listening. It's really
interesting how the XYL's screams are completely blocked out and I
can copy that QRP BV1 station 599.

I had a similar problem with a family of squirrels here. I found that
my Barret M-82 works quite well at totally eliminating the pest with
out any clean up necessary. I even found that it keeps all the
neighbors from wandering into the antenna field also. 

Ahh, but that's another story.

Nice headsets, I would certainly recommend them. The price isn't what
the casual listener would want to pay. SO, if you're a cheap uhh,...
So if you can't afford the coins for a really great set, stick with
the Radio Shack $9.99 set.
