Headphones
The headphone jack on the M6 is located on the
control box above the battery compartment. There
is a dust cover on the headphone jack that needs to
be removed before the stereo plug from the head-
phone is inserted. Replace it when headphones are
not being used. Most users prefer high quality
stereo headphones so White's has chosen to wire
the headphone jack for stereo. If you have a mono
headphone, you can purchase an adapter that will
allow sound in both earpieces. Some headphones
come with a switch for stereo or mono jacks.
In choosing headphones, make sure they have a
VOLUME CONTROL as there is no target vol-
ume control on the M6. As well as comfort,
headphones also avoid bothering others with a
"beeping" box, and save on battery life. Many high
quality headphones from full ear enclosure to
lightweight summer models offering more safety
in snake and bear country are available on the
market. Higher impedance headphones (60 Ohms
or greater) give the most sensitivity. Properly
balanced impedance is important as well as low
distortion.
Whites has several headphone models to choose
from.
