looks like you can buy rx900 pads for 15$, guess it just makes more sense to buy the 900s, ill still email JVC to see if theyll just send them out

Its really more like a $200 headphone, so $15 for quality comfy goodness to match its sound is a good deal. I honestly think the 700 is better, so getting the 900 just for the pads would be a bad idea in my opinion. Although I could see how the 900s would be fantastic for movies. Might have to check that out. Although my surround sound system for my TV cost 25 times what the 900s did so I'd like to use that. I don't need these JVCs showing up anymore of my equipment. |

I didn't notice much of a difference. They both seal the same, and they're about the same width. There's just something about the 900 that makes it sound echoey and just not as forward and tight. |
