Default Headphones

Bought a set of Sennheisers back in '76, for 40.00. Sold them to a friend a few years later for 40.00.

Then I replaced them (originals were black) with a pair found on Ebay.

The type is have were used in many studios, they are so light and powerful with such a great sound, for the time! I have a more recent version as well.

I wear these by Howard Leight when I am on my zero turn. Comfortable and decent sound for what they are. I listen to the radio when I mow, but you can patch a device in as well. These are much better than the Worktunes I had been using before.

I listen to tunes while on the mower too. For that I have a set of Bose noise canceling wireless. Some music I prefer super loud, newer type headphones limit the volume ….

I have a pair of the HD650's and they sound great but I've never gotten used to dedicated listening on headphones.
