As I commented on in a previous note, I use stereo headphones with little
problem.

However... I would love to have a pair of headphone that are audio-lly
optimized for copying CW.  That is, have the roll off below and above what
may be an optimum CW range, say, 300Hz-1000Hz or something like that.  It
can be done with filters (I used to use SuperSCAF--which was it says it is:
Super), but can it be done physically in the headphone?  Our telephones are
optimized for 300-3000Hz.  Maybe our headphones can be similarly optimized.

Besides, high fidelity and SSB are somewhat opposites, aren't they?  I mean,
SSB is ratty audio to begin with.  No amount of hi-fi headphone quality will
improve it.  CW is CW.
