Jim:

The best 'phones for cw are the old style magnetic types because they 
have a resonance around 800 Hz.  I found new mil HS-19 headphones at 
Army Surplus Warehouse (http://armysurpluswarehouse.com).

The other option would be aircraft headphones.  Search the aviation 
supply web sites. You might be able to restore your Telex headphones or 
fix up a set of David Clark 'phones. Marv Golden Pilot Supply has 
replacement parts and ear cushions.

My Telex ProCom 250 head set with boom mic are getting ratty and about 20 years old.  I use a Ten-Tec desk mic so I really do not need a boom mic head set unless thats the best head phones for CW.  My sister stole my military Navy head phones 25 years ago she said they were hers, I got them from a friend in the Navy.  I liked those.
