[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 297264, member: 4485"] What ohms are they? They might be low impedance (ohms) to suit small, portable devices so lower impedance are easier to drive? If you find them really comfortable etc. you can possibly fix the low volume with a small battery powered headphone amplifier that many use on their portable devices. Minelab say that their detectors will drive headphones between 16 to 100+ ohms. I'm using a 32ohm set of earphones at the moment that aren't as loud as my 64ohm headphones that I find great. I can still pick out the faint signals ok though & the earphones are a lot better in summer. The lower impedance no doubt contributes but so would not having the same noise attenuation as over the ear headphones. The Koss SportsPro lightweight on ear headphones are 60ohm. They're about the highest impedance lightweights I've seen but being on ear may suffer from low noise attenuation/block out too? [/QUOTE]
