me again with the jvc's. i said i was done but got a great ebay price and so...
found almost zero info on these. these are '2nd highest' behind the dx3 in jvc's lineup (not counting the thousand dollar victors). they are 5-30k hz , 45 ohms, very large, cushy, isolating. gave these an overnight burn in 1st.
they claim a 3 way adjustable fit- the buttons at the top of the yokes allow the yokes to spread wide tho it seems a worthless feature as the angle when spread keeps the cups from lying flat against my head. the spring loaded headband adjuster is too weak and simply goes to maximum spread. this doesnt affect comfort to me tho. small heads might have a problem. wore them for a 2 hr gaming session and had no comfort issues
the sound is very good. very nice bass. tight sounding, large, doesnt overpower the mids and highs. mids and highs are very clean and clear. mids in particular are very sweet.these are also 'fast' in the bass dept. i tried out a speed metal thunping song (through the fire and the flames)and these came out the best i've heard.
i will compare these to my audio technica ath-a900 and jvc harx700s.
bass- the hadx1 has the best and tightest thump, the harx700 seems boomy and sloppy in comparison. the a900 seems slightly boomy in comparison but reaches a lower note and is warmer sounding.
mids- the hadx1 has the best mids of the group, much cleaner then the harx700, and slightly clearer than the a900 (which is a little recessed)
highs- no contest- the a900 rules this area. the hadx1 does reach plenty high tho, slightly better than the rx700.
comfort- the a900 is best, but they are all comfy
quality feel- all feel quality built- thos the jvc's cords are obviously cheaper than the a900's braided cord.
the hadx1 goes for 75$ shipped on buy.com. (i got mine for much much less). it's easily worth it in my opinion. the harx700 is still the value leader at 38$ shipped. but if your budget goes up to 75$ the jvc hadx1 is a great value and sound.
