Are there any headphones that don't pick up pops and crackles very much when listening to vinyl?

Question

I am new to vinyl and my only option for listening to vinyl is through headphones, I'm trying to find some headphones that are good for vinyl listening that won't pick up all the pops and crackles. Yes I do clean my records and I do take care of them but on headphones I can hear the pops and crackles so much more than on speakers. Does anybody know some good headphones for this?

Answer

Pops and crackles are usually caused by dust. Spread Elmer's Glue on the record as it spins on the turntable. Let dry fully, then peel it off. That will remove loose dust from the grooves, but pits in the plastic will remain. 

And that is all you can do.
