JVC HAFX1X Xtreme Xplosives In Ear Canal Earphones

Well, originally i owned an Creative EP-630, and that Earphone alone was top notch. Compared to my old earphones and headphones that doesn't provide any noise cancelling ear buds, the Creative EP-630 had a really top of the category sound and is really worth the price. And originally buying it at the price of 7 quid, now its at 10 quid looking at how high the demand of the existing headphone created by Creative Tech. But sadly mine got broken, still works but you need to spin the earphone around and around until it starts to work again and i thought it was mainly caused by being pulled up. And was literally my own fault for sleeping while using it knowing i really move alot while asleep i probably pulled the wires connected to the earphone's causing it to malfunction. Thats when i though of buying new Earphones and said, why not try something new? then i found this JVC HAFX1X Xtreme as a recommendation. And in my opinion it is a decent headphone together with the EP 630 that i used to use. Although it has it draw backs compared to the EP 630. Mainly the HAFX1X Pro's: >Aesthetically it looks really nice together with that red and black color's >>The wire is decent in length and the wire is solid copper and pretty stiff they havent tangled that much for me so far which is good >>>The sound quality is good as well and its as good as the EP 630 >>>> Originally both this JVC HAFX1X and the the EP 630 had the same price so i guess it was just a matter of changing the prices but both earphones perform great! >>>>and the Noise cancelling works pretty well! but avoid using them while crossing the road! or riding a bicycle/motorcycle Yes i think this is a good value for money, But together with The pro's on all existing products, they will most of the time also have the Con's, but this con's are mainly things that i found after using it now for 2 weeks. Con's: >well ive read some stuff on the reviews section and did found people saying the bass is rather too much, and i guess i have to agree with this. Depending on the soundtrack's i play and mostly they are Progressive rock, Melodic Rock, Alternative Rock, Psychedelic rock, etc. etc. and mostly instrumental's mainly listening to them while walking or doing something and making the things i do (walking, reading, Jogging etc) as the vocal for t he instrumental i mostly listen. The Bass is too much that the other sound and tunes are being overshadowed by the base. Also when i do have soundtracks with vocal, again that vocal is overshadowed by the bass, you barely hear other sound since the bass is beating that hard. But in some of the tracks i listen too the Bass doesn't act up to them. >> the wire is probably too stiff and as always i try to tape the wire on the 3.5mm audio jack to avoid it being strained when accidentally being pulled or pressed, since its the main reasons why my headphones or earphones starts to stop working. Mainly because of the wire getting pulled. Its just that i feel its more prone to getting damage from the inside from getting pulled because the wire is more stiff (solid copper) and that its also stiff on the 3.5mm audio jack to wire connection. Anyways its just me, overall this Earphones are good! Currently using it but still gonna get myself a new Pair of Creative EP 630 though before that version ran's out and before its prices sky rockets! But yes both Earphones are of top quality! And ! i don't suggest using earphones listening to soothing soundtracks while falling asleep! its imminent death for the good earphones! :<

Having just bought this set of earphones & played about with them for 2 days, I thought I would give them one of my typically subjective long-winded yet dispassionate reviews. I somehow lost my previously-loved Creative EP 630 earphones, which are re-badged Sennheisers, btw, so I needed something to replace the atrocious Apple earpods supplied with my iPod & to listen to & watch iPlayer TV on my Kindle Fire HD. These fit the bill precisely. The JVC plastic carton in which theyre supplied needs a chainsaw to open, as has been previously mentioned, but after 10 minutes of hacking, eventually youre presented with the product. The actual ear canal phones are default-supplied with medium sized silicon ear-inserts on, which fit my earholes perfectly, but if youve super-small or gigantic lugholes, a pair of small & larger ones are supplied. The supplied case is also jolly useful, & unlike one of the revevers pics suggests, the actual earphones do fit inside the case quite happily, along with the wire, as theres not much point in leaving the breakable bits outside the case, is there? Anyway..... The phones are a lot more durable-looking than my lost Creative/Sennheisers & the ear-canal bits go further inside my ear, so as effectively cut off outside noise & not fall out when I mow the lawn....they go in quite a long way & are supremely comfortable to wear. The wire is red. Now, never having heard of Dr. Dre, & his no-doubt super products & "music" , yet being aware of the brand through reviews of this product, I have yet to be questioned about whether or not theyre "Dres" by my septuagenarian neighbours whilst outside in the garden. The wires are twice the girth of my Creatives & Apple earphones, very robust & do not tangle & twist about themselves, which is a major plus compared to other thin-wired ones. Nor do they transmit rustly noises when touched. However, they are red, so be warned! The Sound. They are VERY LOUD. So turn down your volume before playing a track, then crank it up to taste. The base is punchy but not overtly overwhelming & drums particularly crisp & noticeable & the sound drills into your head very nicely, with good stereo separation. The higher frequency sounds are a tad exaggerated & marginally rough at full volume to my taste and the way these phones have been configured clearly muddies the midrange a bit. I used to be an audiophile, with fancy hifi setup & so on & highly critical, but Im not so fussy now. But hey.....theyre 13 quid right now & you can always adjust the equalizer on your device to compensate, cant you? Ive been assured by my wife that theres no external sound leakage also, even with the volume at 11. These things really go quite far into your ear, & probably also loosen any irritating earwax problem you may have, eventually, so thats another plus. On my Kindle Fire HD watching TV programmes, the sound settles down, turned to mediumish & the ambient sounds in the production are faithfully produced & the stereo stunningly rendered. Im very pleased with this purchase, & believe me, they beat the Creative 630s hands down in the budget stakes, stay in your ear whilst mowing the lawn & probably when running. I wouldnt know about the latter as I dont think running is a good idea unless youre being pursued by a zombie, but thats just me. For the price, an excellent choice, & the funky little box they supply means you shouldnt really lose them in your bag, if you remember to take the little box with you, that is. All in all, an excellent product at a very reasonable price.

Ich schreibe eigentlich keine Rezensionen - allerdings halte ich das an dieser Stelle wirklich für angebracht. Die Lieferung erfolgte nicht so schnell wie ich es von Amazon gewohnt bin - ich musste 4 Tage warten. Allerdings entschädigen mich die Kopfhörer voll und ganz für diese Wartezeit. Die Kopfhörer kommen in einer stabilen Plastikverpackung, die eine Aufbewahrungsbox,verschieden große Ohrpolster (klein,mittel ist "vormontiert" und groß)enthält so wie ein paar kurze Sicherheitshinweise in den wichtigsten Sprachen. Man sollte sich nicht von den Bildern täuschen lassen - die Kopfhörer sind tatsächlich recht groß, ebenso wie das Kabel, das erstaunliche 2mm dick ist. Die Kopfhörer dichten gut ab - ich höre kaum das Klicken der Tasten während ich diese Rezension schreibe. Sie scheinen außerdem wenig Strom zu brauchen - beziehungsweise liefern lauten Klang bei niedriger Lautstärkeeinstellung (Referenz : links von der Bildschirmmitte eines iPod Touch) Wer keinen Bass mag - und ich meine Bass, sollte die Finger von diesen In-Ears lassen. Ich habe in dieser Beziehung noch nie etwas vergleichbares erlebt - der Bass ist teilweise so kräftig, das man ihn in der Brust merkt (!). Für mich - ich höre größtenteils Hip Hop, sind diese preiswerten, solide und qualitativ hochwertig verarbeiteten In Ears genau das richtige -ich werde sie wieder kaufen. Ich werde noch nachtragen wie lange sie gehalten haben - sollten sie dem klassischen Kabelbruch am Stecker eines Tages erliegen. Nachtrag vom 24.11.2015: Ich habe mittlerweile mein 3. Paar - kein anderer Kopfhörer hat mich bisher so überzeugt! Nur eines davon ist nach ungefähr 2 Jahren treuer Dienste kaputt gegangen - und zwar brach nicht wie sonst üblich das Kabel, sondern die schwarze Ummantelung am Stecker löste sich, so konnte man die Kopfhörer nur schlecht aus Handy oder MP3-Player ziehen nachdem sie einmal drin steckten, funktioniert haben sie tadellos (Was ich mit Sekundenkleber reparierte und noch bis ich dieses Paar verlor lange Freude daran hatte) ! Mittlerweile habe ich auch den Vergleich zu einigen anderen - ich neige leider zum Verlieren & Verlegen meiner Kopfhörer ;) - und muss hinzufügen das sie für mich besser geeignet sind als andere, da sie durch die recht lange Bauart besser und weiter ins Ohr passen als nicht so lange in ears ! Musikalisch habe ich mich auch weiterentwickelt - ich höre - oh Wunder wenn man obige Rezension bedenkt, mittlerweile auch recht gerne (Neo-)Klassik , verschiedene Metal-Genres, Dubstep, Trap und Filmsoundtracks a lá Two Steps from Hell, Hans Zimmer und Howard Shore ( Der Herr der Rigne Soundtrack - sehr empfehlenswert !) und muss sagen das egal um welche Musikrichtung es sich handelt der Kopfhörer brilliert wie kein anderer, manchmal auch doppelt und dreifach so teurer den ich bisher hatte ! (Ich benutze mittlerweile zum Musik hören mein Android Smartphone mit der App "Poweramp" - durch die vielseitigen Equalizereinstellungen und abspeicherbaren Profile kann man alles genau auf die jeweilige Musikrichtung anpassen, das sollte man berücksichtigen !)

great headset and quick delivery,top seller,

Ero timoroso che la qualità audio, fosse "focalizzata" solo sui bassi, invece ho sentito musica come non avevo mai ascoltato prima, brani che conosco benissimo, si sono rivelati con qualità musicali mai ascoltate prima. Sono entusiasta della qualità audio di queste cuffie. Passiamo ai punti dolenti : 1) Purtroppo la conformazione del mio orecchio sinistro mi fa avere difficoltà nel far aderire (anche mettendo il gommino più piccolo) la cuffia all'orecchio interno ma, probabilmente è dovuto ad una mia conformazione anatomica strana. 2) La custodia delle cuffie (inclusa nella confezione) non dà una impressione di robustezza, anche se spero di essere smentito alla prova dei fatti. 3) Pensavo, guardando la foto che le cuffie fossero leggermente meno "ingombranti". Detto ciò, le consiglio comunque per la loro straordinaria qualità musicale.

Je viens de faire l'achat de ce bijou et j'en suis absolument satisfait. En effet, après avoir lu les différents commentaires je me suis dit que ça devait être vraiment une bonne qualité de son. Une fois dans les mains j'ai été surpris par la forme des oreillettes mais finalement ça reviens au même. Par contre dans les oreilles, quand on met une musique tel que de la Dubstep on comprends tout de suite qu'on a un produit d’exception. Les basses sont d'une puissance jamais égalée par mes anciens écouteurs (sony/phillips). A l'instant même où j'écris ce commentaire je suis en train d’apprécier la qualité incroyable de ces écouteur hors du commun. En effet après avoir testé certains Beats by Dr Dre, je peux vous dire que les JVC Xtrême Xplosives sont de qualité de son égale voir mieux ! Les oreillettes tiennent parfaitement dans l'oreille même en marchant vite, j'ai hâte de les tester en courant. Par contre niveau longévité du produit je ne peux pas m'exprimer car je viens d'en faire l’acquisition depuis peu. En résumé je recommande à 1000% l'achat de cette jouissance musicale, surtout à un prix tout à fait ridicule ! Le confort est nickel,la boite de rangement est satisfaisante. P.S : ne vous fiez pas aux commentaires qui disent que les basses sont faibles, le problème provient certainement du fichier audio ou de leur équaliseur.

An audiophile since music first entered my ears,these earphones are by far the best in its class which provide mind-numbing zero distortion lows(bass),and crystal clear mids and highs. Not cracking at full volume and extremely comfortable even for long hours of use. Looks like a hefty beast and performs like one too. A bit overpriced on Amazon,but great packaging and authentic product.
