    Impossible to answer without you telling us your budget.

    Earphones / headphones range from super expensive to Super cheap.

    For radio only i would think you should be looking at the cheaper end of things.

    look here for some ideas.

    Be very very wary of finding a set that fits the bill and then buying off Ebay or Amazon market place. There are a lot of fakes for sale on the net. If buying from Richer Sounds you will get a 100% genuine set.
    Better in my pocket than theirs :rotfl:
  • Altec Lansing on richersounds at £9.99. Would they be ok?

    Sennheiser. I've been using a pair since the 1970s, along with a pair of Beyer Dynamics. Buy the brands that have been making headphones for a long time, not fashion accessories like Dr Dre.

    I use a set of these, not to expensive but the quality is suitable enough for my needs. (Listening to music, movies, etc)

    Sennheiser HD201 Closed Back Headphones : http://amzn.to/YXzJ6I

    Reviews are pretty good, I recommend them.
