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.

It was delivered in time and was well packaged. Physically it was better looking than in the pictures. I am a Jamaican living in Jamaica where our music is filled with deep rich bass and sharp crisp top end as a result I am disappointed with the headphone's lack of ability to produce even moderately deep bass. The top end is great crisp and sharp (the best I have heard in a low end ear phone) but sounds like it is lacking bass or the ability to play bass. Take my advice if you someone that loves music and love bass save your money and get a better headset I am currently saving for a beats by Dre. All in all u get what u pay for I will be using this for my desk at work so it will do just fine

Pros
Cheap
Light like a feather in weight
Looks like it cost $200
Comfortable to wear
Long enough cord but not excessively long
Sharp Crisp top end and mid range (sounds like the artiste is in ur ear)
Sounds great when connected to my black berry

Cons
Sound leakage
Bass low and when u turned up the source bass it baffles

i was very skeptical about these headphones i figured how good could they be for 13.00 all i can say is WOW.these are the best headphones i have ever used.it is amazing how the bass is there for the songs that should have it but when a song should'nt have it then it is not.I have heard notes in parts of songs that i have listened to many times and did not notice with all the other headphones i have owned.I have even owned a pair of bose headphones and i think these are much better than them GO FIGURE.great buy at any price

Listening to blues right now, good sound, very clean, bass is tight and not exaggerated, vocals are good. Might be missing a bit at the high end.

They sound pretty good coming out of my guitar amp.

Noise isolation is very good, and they are light and comfortable.

Really a very good set of phones for under $20.

Don't be fooled by the low price of these cans. I agree with other reviewers in that all the ranges are there as they have a good bass driver and the highs an mids can be heard very well. They are huge so that can be good if your hat size is above 7.5 but cumbersome for portability. They do have noise cancelling properties and would possibly be fine for travel, Again, they are big. The 5 star rating is given because, by comparison to much more expensive phones, these hold up very well.

I conducted quite a bit of research when searching for the perfect set of headphones. For some reason, I passed this set by without paying attention to the product details. I probably did that because the price just didn't seem high enough for a great pair of headphones. After going through way too many similar products, I eventually came back around to these. Reading the details and other customer reviews, I was surprised. I was surprised because the low price just didn't seem to match.
I finally decided to give it a try and ordered them. I received the headphones days before I really expected them to arrive. Upon using them the first time, I was hooked. The sound quality is superb which does not allow any outside audio influences to disrupt the listening pleasure. The comfort that these provide is worth the price alone. They are the most comfortable headphones I have ever used. One last attribute I have to mention is the length of the cord. Compared to other models and brands, this is the longest cord I've had for headphones which suits my needs perfectly.
I absolutely recommend these headphones to anyone and everyone. The price and quality together just can't be beat.

Out of a few hundred options, I ended up selecting these JVC headphones based on the name and other reviews.

The audio quality from them is excellent, although don't expect any audio isolation from them. I still have no problem hearing environmental background noise when listening to music.

The headphones themselves broke after a few weeks from stress on the cable connection to the headphone. There appears to be no way to get inside the earcup to inspect/repair the connection without damaging the headphone.

Probably a good idea to spend a few extra dollars for a more solidly built headset.

the sound quality is indeed good for the price but the volume is kinda low if you have an ipod you should be quite glad with these headphones these seem to be more for studio use considering the size they are pretty huge but really comfortable the package says extra bass which is there more so than most headphones i ve used but it is worthwhile if your a stay at home kinda person otherwise get earbuds noise reduction is not mentioned in the description but it is there not the best but really good for price it is extremely worthwhile.
