Seen these today at a local Target. I am curious if anyone here has had a listen with these. I am always picking up Cans/Buds/IEMs when I find something new so might just spring for it and try them out. Just curious if anyone has any experience with them, and their opinions/observations.

Here is a link to them on Targets website.

I've not heard the AH-C351K, but do have a pair of Denon AH-C350's bought from ebay (link below.) I would say their sound is more evenly balanced than the JVC marshmallow's bass-driven sound. The bass is still there though and I'm happy with my C350's.

Once again, it's the same headphone as the 351 (like the C700 and C751) - the only difference is in the accessories, extension cable and pouch. So they'll sound exactly the same. I think the 351 is probably more expensive due to the accessories.

I tried them out yesterday, and compared them with the AH-C551s. I went home with the C551s. The 351s are not bad, but it's really no competition. Even at about twice the cost, the 551s felt like more value for my money. The main difference is that the mids and highs of the 551s are so much clearer, while still having a respectable bass response.

And the C551 housing is aluminium (nice touch), while the C350/351 is plastic.

Yeah, that's a really nice touch, gives them a really solid and high quality feel. I believe the aluminium housing is also supposed to make the sound better in some way, but who knows if it really makes much of a difference.
