I'm retired from a career in pro audio, so own at least a half dozen 
different headphones. My favorites for CW and RTTY are CM500 and Sony 
MDR-7506 -- I find them equally comfortable, they sound equally good. 
For SSB, it's the CM500. It's not uncommon for me to put in 30+ hours in 
a long contest.

For at least ten years, I've slept through the night wearing a pair of 
MDR-7506 listening to jazz.

Nice! :>)
