JVC HA-NCX78 Multi Noise Canceling EarBuds Review

The last pair of JVC earbuds I reviewed I didn't like so much. These are much better, and cheaper! The JVC HA-NCX78 Multi Noise Canceling EarBuds claim to reduce up to 88% of ambient noise interference. How you could accurately gauge that is beyond...

Decent noise reduction in a variety of scenarios ; Good features: shirt clip, ear loops, active monitoring ; Fair price given performance

Noise reduction systems can be more placebo than reality ; Wind noise reduction is weak ; Sound reproduction can always be better

Gave me just what I needed

I take walks on my lunch hour during which I like to listen to podcasts on my smartphone. The problem is that my only available walking path is alongside a busy road with lots of truck and bus traffic. To be able to appreciate the podcasts without...

Noise cancellation did not work

I have purchased two of these in the last week because I like the overall design. However the noise cancellation feature did not work at all on the first one and failed within a few minutes on the other. I have had other noise cancelling headphones and...

I like them

I use them while flying and am very pleased. They remove background noise very well. You can still hear other passenger voices but I have yet to find any noise cancelling headset able to remove that

The cord could be a little longer but they are still very usable

Very useful on a plane

I travel a lot, but don't want bulk. Bought these I airport, they work extremely well.. The only flaw is that the noise canceling sometimes fails, and I have to turn it off and back on again. But even without the active noise canceling, they still work...

Very weak noise canceling

The noise canceling effect is almost zero from what I can see. By turning the switch on and off you can test the extent of the noise canceling, and I could find almost no real effect. I tried them on a recent airplane flight where you have a lot of...

Great Buds For The Money!

I enjoy riding motorcycles and listening to my mp3 while I ride. Wind/background noise is usually annoying above 50mph with standard earbuds in place, but with these wind/background noise is definitely reduced. I purchased my first set of these about...

Product Specifications

The JVC HA-NCX78 headphones use several noise-reduction technologies to not only reduce ambient noise but also cord friction noise, wind noise and electrical noise, while maintaining excellent user comfort and outstanding sound quality. Superior noise canceling technology built into JVC HA-NCX78 headphones reduces ambient noise by up to 88 percent. This makes them a fine choice for enjoying music, and also for minimizing distraction by environmental noise in order to relax or concentrate more effectively.
