Panasonic RP-HX40: Cheap price, impressive sound

Despite some shortcomings in the design and comfort department, Panasonic's $20 RP-HX40 on-ear headphones deliver very good sound for the money.

The ; are lightweight on-ear headphones that look fairly attractive (they come in multiple colors), are inexpensive, have a built-in microphone for making cell phone calls, and sound very good for their low price point.

The RP-HX40s feel like inexpensive headphones and aren't incredibly comfortable (they could use a bit of padding in the headband).

Despite some shortcomings in the design and comfort department, the Panasonic RP-HX40s deliver impressive sound for the money and are a good value at around $20 online.

Great pair of headphones!

I love these headphones! They are my favorite color, green! I enjoy listening to my new iPod touch with these and also my laptop. I definitely recommend this product to anyone who loves listening to music or likes using their laptop.
