What do you want to listen to, the audio of the radio program or the noise
from your receiver?
For listening to talk radio programs and SWL a HiFi set of cans will give
you listeners fatigue.

For serious weak signal SW DXing I use Kenwood HS-5 which limits the audio
frequencies to the critical audio spectrum where my ear is most sensitive
and the audio that is available from a radio broadcast.
For portable/casual SWL & talk radio I use the Sennheiser PX-200 whose audio
frequency response cuts out in the high audio frequencies which are not
present in radio audio, just receiver noise - fatigue.

If you want HiFi look at Grado cans.

I've been using walmart or cheap radio shack phones that my kids give
me. I don't think more expensive phones would do me any good cause I
just listen to talk radio and never music.
I've been using the kind with foam puffys. Maybe I will spend 25bucks
for a pair of the Sennheiser HD201. They are full sized. Check out
the expensive ones at the bottom of the page.

So do you have a favorite headphone? Bose? Koss? Sennheiser?
