Headsets for SunSDR2DX. 02 Oct 2021 22:24 #1

Hello all,

call is ct1drb, name is David Quental QTH is close to Lisbon.
I am just waiting for a new SunSDR2DX and of course I am bit anxious about it.
I will operate it, almost 100%, on CW and so I will not need a microphone.
Which headset will you advise me ?
Heil or other?
In case of Heil which model.
Best 73 and have a nice weekend.

For CW - Bose QC-series is confirmed and optimal choice. To be used with wire (do not even try BT).

Hi Dave,
try Beyerdynamic DT 770 M 80 Ohm. Pretty good! There are many Beyerdynamic with similar marking but if possible, look for exactly these. Optimal for CW!

Hi David
I'm using Audio Technica ATH-M50 monitoring headphones.
And I am very happy with them.
As you can see each of us proposed something different, there is no ready answer.
In the end, you have to make the call.
How do you VooDoo?

Hello Pawel,

tks indeed for your answer.

Yes, it looks so, each opinion each headset :yes: :yes: . That is not that bad, at least I can compare prices and opinions.

Best 73 and have a nice weekend.

Hi Dave,
I am still alive, now playing with SDR radios...

BTW the headset I recommended is a special closed, circumlunar, dynamic set for drummers with 35 dBA Noise isolation and Sound Pressure Level (SPL) of 105dB which is rather exceptional. Frequency range: 5-30000 Hz, Nominal Impedance: 80 Ohm. Of course it has no boom mic but is well tailored to CW reception. Perfect for weak signal operation, you will never miss an expedition! Frank W3LPL uses these, he bought a lot of 10 of them AFAIK :D
The proper model I discovered at Thomman Music store for 139 € which is very fair price.

Hi Martin,
how are you doing?

Nice that you are playing with SDR radios, I have an ICOM-9700 and tomorrow I will have, at my hand, a brand-new SunSDR2D, lets see how good it will run.

About headsets your suggestion is very welcome here and the price seems quite good too, I will look in local market about it and then I will let you know.

Best 73, have a nice weekend and till next email.
