Comparing three lightweight “comfortable” models
I have been on a search for over the ear or on-ear headphones that when used with a laptop sound good, are not expensive, and (here’s the big eliminator) are comfortable to wear. I am going to compare 4 phones which are readily available: Panasonic RP- HT 21 (current prices as of 4/12 – $4.49), Koss Portapro ($18.72), JVC HA-S160-B ($14.23) and AKG K240 (4.5) ($93.90) The AKG’s were to be used as a sound benchmark.I listen mostly to classical music, soundtracks, and jazz. I used the following music: Katsarsis playing the Kreisler Praeludium, Rattle and the LA Philharmonic doing the adagio from Rachmaninoff’s 2nd Symphony, and von Karajan and the Berlin doing the opening of Strauss’s Thus Sprach Zarathustra. The phones were powered only by a laptop because that is what most people will use lightweight phones for (that or other small listening devices) For that reason the AKG’s were not a good choice because it could not reach even moderately high sound levels from my Toshiba laptop. The sound was super smooth on the AKG’s but the lightweights were more compatible with the laptop.The Panasonics sound good with mid range music, like the Kreisler piano music, but their weakness showed in the Strauss. They could not handle the complex, loud tones with any finesse. I give the JVC’s a small edge sonically over the Koss’s overall because while they both handled detail and loud volume about the same, the JVC showed a bit more reality in the music. By that I mean, e.g., horns sounded more like horns and not synthesized sound. Both Koss and JVC allowed you to hear the decay and space in the Strauss opening.Now, on to comfort. The Panasonics are very small and light and one can wear them for a long time without even noticing them. The Koss’s have a clumsy headband, and I found the pressure on the ear uncomfortable after 15 minutes or so. The JVC’s, which use a simple headband, were almost as comfortable as the Panasonics. The AKG’s, like many over the ear phones, started becoming oppressive after 15 minutes. Note: I have a large head and this comfort level assessment may not be true for people with smaller noggins.I would use the Panasonics for times when they might receive heavy handling, such as when commuting on public transportation. They are cheap (and a real bargain) so damage will not be costly. The Koss were just a bit too clumsy to use – Koss needs to abandon its weird headband design. The JVCs were a clear choice for everyday listening with smaller devices. I think the AKG’s just need a real amplifier to power them.In short, I thought the JVC’s were a clear winner in this bargain/comfort category.

Terrific, affordable headphones that are very useful for mobility and sound great. HOWEVER…
They break incredibly easily, due to not being designed sturdily enough where the headphones themselves connect to the part that goes over the top of your head. I’ve owned several pairs of these exact headphones, and they all have broken at some point or another because of an overly weak/thin piece of plastic that holds the metal part together. The metal isn’t sharp, but it’s a nuisance to have to tape the headphones back together or otherwise deal with one of the headphones often falling off of the plastic part that goes over your head if you are walking around with the headphones around your neck, for example.These headphones do break at the point where you adjust them very easily, and the pair I most recently bought here actually managed to break within the first month. Because of that it might seem very strange that I’m leaving a 4 star review, but I think these headphones are absolutely terrific for basic consumer use in literally every other way.The fact that they fold to be flat makes them very easy to transport and store. The sound quality is very good, and there’s a pretty decent range of frequencies. They can also handle a good amount of bass. I can listen to metal/rock with a bass boost and it sounds great while keeping the higher frequencies clear and audible. And the headphones are just really easy to move around with/take on trips and that sort of thing.I give them a 4/5 because they are really great in almost every way, and they are my go-to make for affordable headphones… I just wouldn’t expect them to stay in one piece for very long.

Great COMFORTABLE fit â nothing FANCY. Easy on the WALLET
I have a set of these that go broken by getting caught under the recliner. My wife uses these for wearing while watching Television late at night after the children are in bed. Their room is right outside the living area and my wife and I use a long extension with a splitter for two headphones. Hereâs the reason I tell you this, we wear them for hours and they are lightweight and do NOT leave your ears aching or feeling like they have been covered like a lot of earphones do.The quality of build is lightweight. They are thin and feel a bit flimsy, but that isnât said to be derogatory â I want a very light nimble headphone⦠thatâs exactly what you get!The sound quality is good. They are NOT noise cancelling headphones in no manner. If you have a lot of outside noise it is going to seep in which is exactly what we want. I have children and I want to be able to hear them if they call as well as hear a commotion in or out of the house, perhaps a phone or doorbell ringing.I sometimes use these to listen to a video on my computer if I donât want to disturb others in the house or even shut off other noise coming from other household activities. In short, they WORK GREAT for our home and individual needs. These are not high priced Sony or Bose, they are what they are, and they are still a great buy, descent sound quality and a comfortable nimble fit.I would highly recommend again and again if your needs resemble mine. Because I serve as a Conference Media Development Director for a large denomination I often have to produce audio files which require a high quality headphone so I can edit and hear a pin drop â DO NOT buy these headphones for that purpose!Product was shipped immediately with my Prime benefits!

The best sound you will ever find in headphones. Period. I have a pair of noise-reducing gaming headphones that cost hundreds of dollars, and these little JVC flats have ten times better sound. And they’re comfortable to wear, easy to pack. You won’t find better sound for the price point, and they easily outdo even the more expensive headphones too.

Entry level headphone with great sound quality at affordable price. Cord is quite thin but if you handle the item with care, it should last as the design is sturdy and easy to handle. Compact and foldable with very little sound leakage.

Die Kopfhörer habe ich bereits das zweite Mal bestellt. Der Klang ist super und für die Stadt sind sie handlich und nicht zu schwer.
