Review on JVC HAEBX5B Sport Headphone Black by Michael Moonin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

These earbuds are pretty good for sports

Firstly please note that this review is based on the price I bought in 2013 for around $12. That being said, these headphones are pretty good for working out. They stay in place and have poor sound quality. To me they are just a touch of higher notes. But if you strum them nice and low, like they should, the bass comes out pretty well. But I wouldn't use it for everyday use. I only use them for training, which I do often. Seems to be holding up well. It's been almost a year and I haven't changed them. For comparison: I change my Apple headphones about every three months. Also I feel that these passive noise isolators are very good (again for their price). I can still hear people talking when the music is low, but with more bass and louder music I can barely hear the outside world. Overall, I like them and will probably buy them again as practice, just a pair of headphones.

Pros
  • Comfortable fit with 3 sizes of silicone earbuds
Cons
  • Requires an outlet
