About the sound signature
Any info on whether these HD's are officially available in european stores? Can't find a way to order them online. And some info on how they compare with the HA-RX series would be greatly appreciated.
Alright. Thanks. Would getting the S400's be better of a value than getting the RX900's? Which is the best all-arounder?
I do indeed love more bassy and neutral cans. And to give you an idea of price/performance ratio the RX900 are 95$ in my country, where's the S400's are only 30$, and stuff like Amazon and Ebay are all blocked. I think I'll go for the S400's! Though they are labeled as JVC HA-S400E-W. I hope the E means nothing. I hope they're the same as the japanese phones. Would I miss on alot from not getting the S680's and S500's? Thank you for your input thus far!
I've had the s680s for a couple weeks now, and I think that they haven't really lived up to expectations. They aren't bad; they also represent an extreme bargain for 70$. I just don't think they can really compete with other, less portable options. My friends XPT100s sound better and are a lot more comfortable. If you are using these strictly for desk use I would suggest something else, but if portability is something that you want in a headphone, then the s680s represent an extreme bargain that you should have for a portable set up.
I think that the s680 are really good portable headphones that can compete with other options for double its price, but if you're looking for a desk setup that you might take outside maybe a couple times in a vacation or on flights, i would try looking at other closed headphone options that are full sized.
Also, I think these are not the best for the music i listen to (jazz, classical, pop) and may be better for things like dubstep and electronic music.
Yeah, these headphones are a steal for looks and portability in its price range. If you take your headphones around, these are a no-brainer budget headphone that should be on the top of your list. But, if you're looking for a headphone for analytical use or just prefer a neutral headphone then i wouldn't recommend these over other closed headphones in its price point.
