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?
