PA1X which Headphones ?
I am interested to know which quality headphone you use with your PA1X ?
Korg recommends an impedence level of 50 ohms (16 - 200 range),
AKG K701 (62 Ohms) looks nice but
I would like to know your advises,
Thank you,

Do a search on the forums.
There's tons of info on this subject.
The most popular seems to the the SENNHEISER HD-500 or higher model numbers.

AKG have some excellent choices too.

Personally, I agree with Sharp. I use a pair of Sennheiser HD 25-1's. Here's a little excerpt of what they are all about..... General Description
The closed-back HD 25-1 IIs are purpose-designed, professional monitoring headphones offering high attenuation of background noise. Capable of handling very high sound pressure levels and of extremely robust construction, these headphones perform exceptionally well in high-noise environments, e.g. ENG, sound reinforcement, studio monitoring and audio equipment testing. The capsule is rotatable for one-ear listening. Ideal monitoring headphones for cameramen and DJs.
Features
Very lightweight and comfortable, even if used for long periods
High maximum sound pressure level
65 .nominal impedance for universal compatibility
Tough, detachable steel cable
Neodymium ferrous magnet systems and lightweight aluminium/copper voice
Hope this might help.

Another vote for Sennheiser. I use some old HD 480 classics. They sound great.
The only thing I would say, they are a little quiet when using them without an amp straight from the headphone jack on the PA1X but when connected to a preamp they're brilliant.
