I like the Skullcandy in-ear headphones from RadioShack. They cost about $17.99 and I think they work wonderfully!!
Spectra w/Stereo-Mono Switch and Volume Control - TranscriptionGear model sp-vc5

$34.95 thru their website - TranscriptionGear.com
I just purchased my second one. The first, which came with the whole GearPlayer set up, piffed out after 5 years of daily 8+ hours use.
Sound is great, they are light in your ears without that plugged feeling, and I like controlling the volume on the set itself rather than changing the speaker volume (which is perfect at its one setting for everything else).

Sony Dynamic Stereo Headphones MDR-V600. I like them because they completely cover my ears and they have soft padding on the ear pieces and the top piece that goes on top of my head.

Why I Would NOT Recommend ATSI Feb 19, 2010Hello all! I am new to this forum and would just like to share my thoughts with you as I have read through some of your postings about different MT companies out there, like "Should I work here?" So, as nicely as I can say it, in a matter of my opinion:
My Top Ten Reasons why I would NOT recommend ATSI:
1. The pay. Straight CPL no matter if it's days, nights, weekends, holidays.
2. No raises, incentives, or bonuses.
3. NOT employee status...EVER...even after 90 days, you will ...

Comfortable Headphones Oct 18, 2009I've always used just cheap stereo headphones but I want to try some of the ones that are made specifically for transcription.

I tried some recently from a fellow MT and I think they were made by Lanier but I can't remember, but they seemed comfortable. Is Lanier the best also for sound quality?
