This review is from: JVC HARX300 Full-Size Headphones (Black) (Electronics)

After extensive researching on the web for buying a headphones I was highly confused because every headphone had one negative review for every two positive reviews.

I finally decided on this pair and decided to give it a try and my previous experience with JVC was good and they didnt disappoint.

These headphones are really good and have the same quality as a old pair of Sony headphones I used to have.

The bass is good, there is no noise or distortion and all frequency ranges can be heard easily and clearly. And when wearing it and listening to music it isolates at least 90% of the noise around you. So dont plan on talking to someone when using these headphones.

The headphone is also quite comfortable, the ear seals/muffs/pads whatever you call 'em are soft and the headphone can be worn for long periods without discomfort.

They also look great in black, much better than they look like in the product description. I would highly recommend this for anybody looking for a decent pair of headphones without paying an arm and a leg for it.

My only peeve is that it doesnt have an inline volume control so I have to adjust the volume on my Laptop/Mp3 player.

Another problem some people may not like is that when the volume is set high, there is some sound leakage and people sitting close to you will hear the sound although not really loud..

I purchased this headphone a month ago. Overall, it is a good value for your money.
The Good:
1. Very good build quality (solid) and quite comfort to use. Good looking too.
2. Large driver to reproduce plenty of bass.
3. Very good "Noise Cancellation" effect even it was not designed for, so it is good to use in a noisy office or airplane.
4. Very good value for your money. What do you can get for $17.00 (What I paid)?

The Not So Good:
1. Bass turn to too heavy and boomy when play certain music, need to reduce the bass level from the player.
2. Miss some of mid range of sound.

These JVC headphones have the finest sound I have yet heard from any, regardless of price. I have two pair of the JVC HA-WA300RF wireless headphones and have been very happy with their sound quality. So, when I saw these (and the fantastic price) I took a chance. (the cordless format has some minor problems with RF interference, etc). The cord is fairly long (about 8ft).

The extreme low frequency bass is phenomenal! The highs are there, firmly but not stridently, midrange is there for vocalists. This has it all! You won't want to lend these to anyone. Very comfortable, too. Where have these been all my life! Get a pair now. I'm ordering my third pair.
