Dear fellow Elecrafters,
 I think this topic has fallen into oblivion somehow. 
 Have been using my MD-7506 for many years now with absolute satisfaction 
either for ham purposes or music.
 Not so in combination with K3! In fact the audio sounds terrible. I tried a 
cheap PC headphones with 32ohm
 (MDR-7506 have 64ohm) and they indeed sound much better. Could this be because 
of lower impedance,
 limited frequency response or both? 
 Is there a solution for the poor guys with too good headphones?
