If you are looking for a decent, but inexpensive pair of headphones, Radio
Shack has their PRO 35 on sale for $20.00 (not sure when the sale will end).
They regularly sell for $40. No, they are probably not worth $40. But for
$20 I think that they are a good buy as an extra decent pair to have for
what ever. They have a nice built in line volume control. Sturdy slide
switch.
I think that may of the "boost features", like the so called "Groove"
setting on many Sony products are only to compensate for the crappy "Groove"
earbuds that come with the unit.
