Grey Ghost underwaters, only other option. They both suck, honestly. I'm looking into having some custom ones made up for me.
 
Where here can you get custom ones done? I use greys. All I can hear is wind. Uhg. -Joe

Have the GGA Amp on my Excal.
But I see they don't make them for the CTX 3030.

They don't. I might just get a pair of GGA and order the same connection for the CTX. I'm just not sure if the circuitry is the same and will allow for the external speaker on the machine to shut off or not.

Do you really need waterproof headphones shallow water hunting ?

In my years of hunting in water they only got dunked once, and thats when I threw them off to save a drowning girl. They happen to be waterproof, but if I knew now what I didn't know then, I wouldn't necessarily felt obliged to plop down $$$ for waterproof.

Rogue waves happen all the time. So I would think yes
 
Sliders location is the treasure coast and most likely necessitate waterproof headphones.
 
Make your own...these are good for all except diving. Use these on my CTX, when I use it...Same speakers as the Sunray Pro Golds, and many other top land headphones. Audiosears 2463's Very loud compared to any water HP's... I made them for several but no longer do and now passing on the secret...






Under skullie 2463..........and you can see how they compare to the others...

Are Gray Ghost that bad?
 
There fine. I am surprised that there are only really two types on the market for the machine. I wish there were other options by now. I don't think I can make my own lol.

OBN, Can you list all of the parts used for this? From headphones, CTX connector, and internals?
