JVC HA-RX900

A scientific, in-depth analysis with side-by-side comparisons

Fairly comfortable; Very affordable

Bulky; Some ranges of underemphasis in music

Headphones that come in at a sub-$100 price point are generally a mixed bag, as there are some that function quite well, and a bunch that don’t. The JVC HA-RX900s are some that have their decided advantages, and work pretty well for the amount of money...

So So..

Price is kind of steep (even on sale) for the comfort issues, and for the lack of bass in these. But if these headphones were 30-40 bucks I would have giving them a 5 star. And when you are listening to music around people they can hear every word...

These headphones sound great with mids and highs, have good enough bass i suppose, and come with a 6.3mm connector to go into my receiver, which is exactly what i needed

I mainly just use these for gaming and i can say after a hour of having these on your head they start to hurt, especially if you wear glasses it just feels like your head is being squished.. So if you are looking for long term wear comfort, these...

Great sound but uncomfortable

As you could expect, it took about 12 hours minimum to burn these in. The sound was very flat right out of the box but opened up a LOT after using them for a couple of days. The soundstage is very large and you can hear every detail in music, and the...

Rich sound.

It took me a while to search and decide on a new pair of cans. I did some looking around and found some Sony MDR-XD200 Stereo Headphones for cheap: read some reviews that bass and overall sound was good, so I went ahead and purchased. I was...
