Hot enough to make you want to take them off every hour or so to get a drink or hit the head.

So now I have to buy higher quality speakers. If I don't change them it will drive me crazy anytime I listen to them!! Arggghhh I can see a very vicious upgrade cycle starting!! Damn you to hell Spacemanspliff! LOL |

So just as I was going to forget buying a better pair of headphones Spacemanspliff came out of nowwhere with the JVC's Rx700 and rx900. I started following the thread carefully hoping that these headphones would really be my first dip into the pool of high end headphones (well higher than what I had end LOL) After a week of reading I bought a pair and they arrived today!! I have been listening to them for the last few hours and have been very impressed. They really have opened my eyes, well ears lol, to what is out there. If these get better as time goes on it will be a bonus I am already more than happy with the quality and the improvement they bring to my listening experience over my old headsets. I just want to comment on the build quality, they really are fantastically well built and they look really good too. My brother wouldnt believe that they were only 70 euro inc. delivery from Japan. What a find Spacemanspliff. Thank you |
