Review on JVC Memory Earbud Marshmallow HAFX38B by Troy Larson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best wired headphones for the price

These are the most comfortable headphones my wife and I have ever bought. It seems like they're getting harder and harder to get a new pair, so hopefully JVC will continue with the Marshmallow brand. The marshmallow tips are very comfortable and don't hurt our ears even after several hours of use, like other headphones. They also don't have the "underwater" feel you get with silicone tips. Music quality is good, bass is not too strong. Many people will comment on how good the headphones are, but trying to lay in bed with the headphones on and turning them around and wearing them for more than 6 hours can quickly become uncomfortable. They work great for us, but you get what you pay for. Depending on how "rough" you are with them, they can last anywhere from 3 to 6 months. If I took them to the gym every day, keeping the phone in my pocket would cause the cord to stretch and bend, causing them to break more quickly, usually after a few months. Always in one ear first, the sound just disappeared, no visible damage to the cable. If you use them exclusively at home, they lasted about 5-6 months without replacement. I think this is great value for money but your mileage may vary.

Pros
  • Decent performance
