best low cost, comfortable over the ear headphones that allows surrounding air to cool the ears.
hello,if you do not want to spend dollars on a set of earphones on the ear, this is the one to get. the bass is outstanding for such a low cost no in the ear canal sound. it is light weight and not those large ear covering speaker covers. yet, it gives crisp clear sound as if it is a $100 dollar set of over the ear set up earphones.i have a set of small in the ear buds. but, my ear cannot take them listening too long as the object in the ear is bothersome. so, these small outside of the ear pads are so comfortable, yet i can hear a voice from the other room. JVC makes good stuff and this is no exception.some small units from other companies look good, but have no bass, even using an outside sound app. these JVC units hit the spot right as you put them on without any adjustments necessary. the bass is great and so is the rest of the music i listen to when drawing or just watching the surrounding coastal view.

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.

Best set of cheap headphones I have EVER bought!
For the price, you seriously CANNOT complain about anything!!! I bought these headphones for $10, and these are the best cheap headphones ever!!! I usually get skullcandy in-ear buds for everyday use, but in-ear buds fall out from time to time, or do not have the same effect of over-ear headphones, so I made a $10 budget for some over-ear headphones. Looked on every site, at every brand, and finally decided on some JVC Flats ’cause of the great reviews I saw everywhere. I was NOT disappointed, and these headphones went completely over my expectations!!!They are lightweight, but surprisingly don’t feel as cheap as I would have expected them to be. The cushions are light and do the job, and I don’t even notice them after I put them on (meaning they are super comfortable). The cable is long and sturdy, considering all the yanking it goes through. Same for the plastic: sturdy, and does not crack or chip. The headband is adjustable and is not loose in any way or form. Absolutely perfect.The sound is better than the skullcandy in-ear buds. I hear the base so clearly and smoothly. From time to time I will hear the treble slightly too much then wanted, but it is NOT an issue. The speakers are clear (not muffled) and wonderful :D.I have had these for months now, and I will NEVER go back to any other headphones (unless they discontinue them, which I hope never ever happens)! I will keep my $150 Axent Wear headphones, or these bad boys with me from now on.BUY THESE HEADPHONES. You will not regret it!!!

These are the BEST headphones I ever owned. They are light and with the movable/rotatable head pieces align very well with the ears. The frequency response is also very good.

Iâm very pleasantly surprised by these little headphones. I just wanted a cheap pair to have to hand for casual listening when I donât want to get out my expensive Sennheiser ones. Obviously the JVC headphones donât have the clarity of separation or the flat eq of monitor headphones. The JVCs have an enhanced bass, good prominent mids and the higher frequencies feel about right, not too harsh but still there. Basically their eq settings are set for enhancing musical playback.These will suit most people who just want to listen to music. The bass comes alive, vocals are in the right place, not too prominent and not drowned out either. Just a really well equalised set of headphones for general music.I canât recommend these highly enough. When I feel like listening to music & hearing every instrument separately with a flat eq I use my higher end monitor headphones. When I just want to enjoy being immersed in music and feel the emotion of the song I go for these JVCs. For that purpose these are excellent.In short these are very well equalised headphones perfectly set up for enhancing general music. For the price you canât go wrong. Iâd expect these to cost a lot more based on the sound, I think the cost has been kept down by keeping build quality to a minimum. Theyâre not cheaply built by any means, just small, light & very basic. The sound quality far outweighs the build quality. I bought them in violet (more a deep metallic purple) and I absolutely love them. Best £12 Iâve ever spent.

They are comfortable, sound great, are cheap and I even like the colour.WARNING:I have bought this model of headphone at least 4 times over the years…and they ALWAYS lose sound in one ear after about a year.I think it is the connection from the thin wire directly to each earpiece that comes loose.So I advise you to try and never pick them up in a way that puts any, extra stress on that point.I am going to try to remember that this time and see if they last longer for me this go around.Because otherwise – I love these.
