3 out of 5 stars ear clips   November 10, 2009
J. Burhenn (USA)
For the cost of the Headphones the clips are of not vary good quality. Easily broken.


2 out of 5 stars Uncomfortable, unsecure fit with minimal noise reduction   September 26, 2007
J. A. Chen (NYC)
This item is extremely uncomfortable to wear for long periods of time. The hard plastic clips hurt my ears alot after extended wear (>30 mins). Also, the 70% noise reduction advertised is very misleading. Background noise is actually made up of many different sounds at different frequencies. After using these for commuting on bus and train, I found that these earphones are VERY effective at reducing certain sounds (70% definitely possible); and, completely useless at reducing other sounds. While sitting on the back of a bus (by engine), I found that it reduces the higher pitched engine noises very well. It did nothing to reduce the lower (bassy) rumbling of the tranny and wind. It also does nothing about conversations around me. I found that I had to turn the volume up much higher to hear my mp3 player than I did with my Sony Fontopia ex-81s which uses passive noise reduction via silicone ear pieces. I would pass on these headphones.


3 out of 5 stars Uncomfortable, poor performance   April 5, 2006

This headphone does not conform well to the shape of my ear so they do very little to block or reduce background noise. They are very uncomfortable to wear for any length of time. The volume level is way too low, requiring me to crank either of my MP3 players to near max to hear audiobooks in a car or on a bus.

I do NOT recommend this headset. If you like ear-clip headphones, stay with the ones you have. "Upgrading" to these is not worth the price as the performance and "Noise Cancelling" is worse than my standard ear-clip headphone.



1 out of 5 stars Do not use on an airplane   March 24, 2006

I can not believe how bad these head phones were. One could not use them comfortably. They hurt your ears. As for as performance, I would rate them as a negative 5. I tried to use them on a Panasonic portable dvd player. There was not enough volumn to make any of the words on the DVD Movie. the sound of the aircraft drowned them out. I was sadly disapointed on JVC for letting a product of this out to the public. It would not be a positive image for JVC reputation.


2 out of 5 stars Very disappointing.   January 25, 2006

I returned these headphones as soon as I tried them. They have absolutely no noise-cancellation ability, they're not very comfortable and they're just clunky and a mess. I have tried and owned other noise-cancelling headphones for about the same price and they may not be the best but they do work, these do not. I only gave it 2 stars because I love the concept, now if someone would make some that actually work.
