JVC headphones: review of the best models

JVC has long established itself in the consumer electronics market. The earphones supplied by it deserve the utmost attention. It will be equally important to consider both general characteristics and an overview of the best models.

Various descriptions on thematic sites invariably emphasize that JVC headphones optimally combine:

• external beauty;
• acoustic quality;
• practical application.

This is one of those companies whose products cause either adoration or misunderstanding - and there is no third way. In principle, only fans of Apple and other specialized brands can reject such a technique. It is noted that even after several hours of listening to music of the club genre, fatigue does not arise. At the same time, JVC designers always care about the reliability of their products and how to make them lighter. The optimal level of protection from the wind, from various precipitations is guaranteed. It is worth paying attention to the following peculiarities:

• rationally structured frequency distribution, taking into account the psychological perception of sounds;
• mechanical strength of JVC headphones;
• nice and trendy design;
• excellent sound reproduction that suits not only music lovers, but also gamers;
• compatibility with Android and even iPhone at a low software level.

There are 2 types of headphones.

Modern fashion is driving the JVC headphone review with wireless Bluetooth options. In this group, it stands out favorably model HA-S20BT-E.

When creating it, they clearly tried to make the structure as light as possible, and this task was successfully solved. The manufacturer claims that the charge of the standard battery should be enough for 10-11 hours of active listening to music. There is a remote control with 3 main buttons, which also has a built-in microphone. Other relevant properties:

• signal reception radius up to 10 m (in the absence of interference and obstacles);
• ferrite magnet;
• nominal impedance 30 Ohm;
• dynamic head size 3.07 cm;
• weight with a wire for recharging 0.096 kg;
• Bluetooth 4.1 class c;
• profiles AVRCP, A2DP, HSP, HFP;
• full SBC codec support.

The range of the company also includes full-size (on-ear) wireless headphones with effective suppression of third-party noise. In addition to normal mode and clear sound, the model HA-S90BN-B-E boasts rich bass. The extra-large battery guarantees stable sound reproduction for 27 hours if noise suppression is turned off. When this mode is connected, the total playing time rises to 35 hours. The set includes a carrying case and a special cable for in-flight listening. It should also be noted:

• full support for the NFC method;
• time-tested neodymium magnet;
• reproduction of frequencies from 8 Hz to 25000 Hz;
• input power no more than 30 mW;
• charging cord length 120 cm;
• L-plug, gold-plated;
• total weight excluding cable 0.195 kg.

JVC can offer special children's headphones. They differ from adults in a more striking design. At the same time, such a performance is not reflected in the technical characteristics. The device is equipped with a shortened (0.85 m) wire. The stated limitation of the sound volume to 85 dB (but it is stipulated that some sources will work louder).

The design is based on a neodymium magnet. Operating frequencies range from 18 Hz to 20,000 Hz. The input power sometimes rises to 200 mW. The plug is nickel-plated. The device has been made compatible with the iPhone.

A nice example of in-ear headphones of the same brand is the model HA-FX1X-E. It is designed to create deep, rich bass. For this purpose, diaphragms with a diameter of 1 cm and specially designed bass-reflex ports are used. The manufacturer focuses on the convenience of fit and the ergonomic shape of the product. The strength of the cable is given by a significant thickness (0.2 cm), as well as the use of pure copper.

Sound insulation meets the most stringent requirements. Neither fellow travelers on the train or bus, nor lightly sleeping children, nor neighbors will experience inconvenience when they use such headphones nearby. Thanks to the rubber coating, the case will last longer. Includes silicone ear pads in sizes S, M and L.

Another representative of the Xtreme Xplosives series - headphones HA-MR60X-E. This is already a full-size device, complete with a microphone for making calls. Even a remote control is provided. The official description mentions that the body of the headset is strong and resistant to damage. As with the previous model, a robust L-format cable is used, fully compatible with iPhone. Additionally, you should pay attention to the characteristics:

• speaker head with 5 cm diaphragm;
• Dual Extreme Deep Bass connectors
• weight (excluding wire - 0.293 kg);
• frequencies from 8 Hz to 23 kHz;
• input power 1000 mW (IEC standard).

It is not difficult to make sure that the JVC headphone range occupies all the main positions that a consumer may be interested in. The most budgetary solution can be considered in-ear headphones. They are bought only by completely undemanding people or people with limited means. The earbuds fit well in the ears - after all, they were designed in Japan. However, their shape causes the headphones to fall out frequently and degrades sound quality. The efforts of engineers only partially mitigate this disadvantage.

The in-ear solution allows you to listen to music without any problems, even in crowded, busy places. However, completely drowning out external sounds when moving in the city can be life-threatening! This applies to everyone - pedestrians, motorcyclists, motorists, cyclists, skaters.

In addition, the unusual shape is not to everyone's taste. In addition, inserting the speakers directly into the ear canal puts more strain on the eardrums. We'll have to strictly limit the volume and duration of listening to music. As for the overhead options, their only drawback will be the difficulty of fixing. All the disadvantages are justified by the attractive design and the improved sound quality.

In the lineup of JVC headphones, it is worth noting products of a professional level. It is important to understand that not all such devices are designed for studio use.

Many JVC headphones have descriptions that they produce sound below 20 Hz or above 20 kHz. Of course, such sounds cannot be heard. But experienced music lovers note that their presence has a positive effect on the general perception. You can find out exactly about the technical qualities and reliability of specific models from the current reviews.
