Review on Headphones Panasonic RP-HJE118, green by Wiktor Wnkowicz ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The quality of the product is perfect, I would recommend this product to my friends.

I just made a hasty purchase at a communication salon of a YAMAHA EPH-30 to replace the SENNHEISER CX300-II that I had been using. I didn't have my headphones with me, and I was about to embark on a lengthy journey. The vendor assured me that these ones were well rated, so I quickly googled them and settled on giving them a try. I got it, opened it (not easily), tried it on the subway, and was very dissatisfied: the headphones did not block out any outside noise, the bass was nonexistent, and they were uncomfortable to wear. Sadness overwhelmed me. After listening to the radio at a few different stations, I wondered if I should switch to a larger size rubber band for my headphones (there are three sizes total, with medium ones already placed). After about 5 minutes of fiddling around, I swapped out the small rubber bands for larger ones, and oh my goodness, the noise was muffled, the bass came through, and what else! The sound quality is generally really good, there are no major flaws, and I noticed an improvement right away. After making a few minor adjustments to the player's equalizer, I was finally happy with the sound. The medium-sized elastic bands that are often implanted and are not tightly pushed into the ear are where the action is at.

Pros
  • Good bass, normal mids and highs, medium-good noise isolation, high-quality build, wide color palette, and a 3.5 mm L-shaped connector are all included in the pricing.
Cons
  • Though attractive, the blister packaging makes it challenging to access the replacement rubber bands. Since there is no carrying case, the headphones' cable is always tangled in itself. The rubber bands I own are of a standard size, but they are a bit too big for my ear canal. As a result, you won't hear a thing. If you upgrade to a bigger size, the audio quality improves. I prefer to put my headphones around my neck because symmetrical cords make me feel uneasy.
