Etrac headphones

[Jdett411]

Hey guys,

I recall reading and hearing in past, that the stock headphones that comes with the Etrac are not as good as some of the aftermarket ones you can purchase. What is it about a different pair of phones that could improve your hunt? I mean doesn't the machine just send the signal to the phones? Thanks.

I have a pair of Jolly Rogers and on my Etrac they're not as good as stock headphones. I can't hear the faint threshold breaks. I'm sticking with Koss for now. Also tried a pair of Killer B's with same result as JR's. I may look at a pair if Gray Ghost to see if they're any better.

Only thing I didn't like about the stock head phones is that they would fall off my head. I thought the sound was good. I didn't like the Grey Ghosts because they pinched my head to much.

Koss have great sound but the construction is not great. Many people make their own using the Koss speakers.

I just got my etrac. the first and only outing the stock headphones seem to be pretty good, better than what I had on my dfx.

Well weather it is good or not is up to you.
Everyone hears differently. You should Borrow and try different ones before you purchase.
What I use on the E-track are the Garrett Stow-a-ways.
On my GP 3500 I use Black Widows .
On My Sovereign GT I use Koss UR 30.
With the Gold Bug Pro I use the Black Widows or the Koss UR 30.

These are my favorite by far for fit, finish and best audio.

So far I like the stock headphones that came with the E-trac, but I have a fat head so the chances of them falling off is slim.

I have had my e-trac for years and have never had a problem with the headphones. Don't spend for money than you have too!!!!
