DFX 300 Earphone Jack Size:

[GLP403b]

Can anyone tell me the earphone jack size for the DFX? Will iPod ear buds work? I think they are 3.5mm.

It's 1/4 inch. You can use an adapter, but why not get phones designed for a detector. There will be many who disagree about this and enjoy spending over a hundred dollars for phones, but all you need are the Royal phones from White's. $33 including shipping.

Okay, thanks Catfish.

The Royal GT's are OK, but they are uncomfortable to use for long. Till you can try a pair of premium phones like Black Widows, Grey Ghosts, Killr Bees, or Ratphones, you don't know how many targets you are missing. The premium phones fit around the ear and block out ambient sound so you can hear the faint whispers better. Sure they cost more, but quality always does.

personally, I like the gray ghost. they are comfortable, without rubbing on my ears, and snug enough, I can bend over and they don't slide around, plus I can take them off and not change the volume setting by bumping the knob
