The price and appearance made me suspicious initially but I love them. These headphones are the best I have tried for my purposes. Sound quality is really very good, very neutral they don't appear to "colour" the sound at all, and detail is great. They sit nicely on the ear and are so lightweight I forget they are there. I find them light enough to listen in bed too. I've had phones that were ten times the price of these but they didn't suit like these .
Cheap enough to give a try without breaking the bank. You might be as pleasantly surprised as I was.

Come on JVC, sort out this one problem in a revised upgrade!
These headphone's are great, great sound, great price, a nice remote feature with a mic which works with my Android phone; however there's one slight issue. The build quality has nothing on the pair of JVC HAFX1X's I owned previously.
Both headphone's are similar in price and quite cheap compared to other's on the market and they both have good features and great sound, but it's up to you which pair is best.
If you're looking for a pair of headphone's with great sound, a great price and a remote + mic feature, these are perfect for you.
However, If you're looking for a pair of headphone's with great sound, a great price alongside brilliant built quality, go for these JVC HAFX1X Xtreme Xplosives In Ear Canal Headphones !

Klare Kaufempfehlung.
Very nice (c:
Déjà le design du casque est très sympa surtout avec le mélange blanc-noir.
Ensuite c'est un casque très léger.
Les oreillettes sont confortables bien qu'un peu difficiles à bien caler sur les oreilles.
L'arceau a l'air suffisamment solide et les crans de réglage sont bien marqués et tiennent bien.
Le son est vraiment très bon pour le prix : bien équilibré et dynamique, pas d'excès au niveau des graves. Le Sony à titre de comparaison avait des graves un peu plus présents ce qui a tendance à noyer certaines fréquences.
Seul problème, j'ai remarqué que l'oreillette droite faisait un bruit en bougeant la tête. De plus en parlant avec le casque celle-ci se mettait à émettre un son de vibration. En retirant le coussinet j'ai pu voir qu'il y a un pièce circulaire mal fixée. En la tournant dans un sens j'ai pu la bloquer.
Il est possible de la tourner sans retirer le coussinet mais au risque d'abîmer le tissu. En effet cette pièce est percée de trous aux extrémités (pour faire passer le son je suppose) que l'on peut sentir à travers le tissu. En appuyant sur ces trous à travers le tissu, il est possible de la tourner pour la bloquer et l'empêcher de bouger.
En conclusion c'est un très bon casque pour le prix. En comparaison avec mon Sony, je dirais que le JVC a un légèrement meilleur son et s'use moins rapidement mais que le Sony tient mieux sur les oreilles.
