| calathar's Full Review: Panasonic RP-HT65A Consumer Headphones |
I bought these headphones in an airport in Ottawa during a band trip. My headphones were crap, as was the cd player they came with. So I figured, how could I go wrong for 20 bucks? I bought the headphones and boarded the plane for a long flight.... I was pleased to find out that the headphones fit fairly well and had good sound quality. The volume control is nice too. But yellow is ugly, get the silver or blue ^_^.
Sound
The sound on these headphones is great. Clear and strong. Though there is one slight problem in that they project a lot of sound outward, so you may get some strange looks from people who can hear your music ^_^. But for some it won't be a problem I'm sure. They are stereo headphones, and make use of each side accordingly, so you will hear songs where sound is stronger on one side, because that's how the song was recorded. A nice touch.
Comfort
These headphones do usually fit very comfortably on any head, though sometimes it can seem a bit awkward and they may not fit just right. It's a little annoying. Also, the don't fit very tight, so if there is much movement they may fall off. May or may not be a problem for you, not for me however ^_^.
Added Features
The volume control on the cord is very nice. It's placed in an easy to get to position. The wheel moves accurately, so you don't have to worry about it jumping and making it difficult to find the right balance. The sound stays great when changing volumes, it has no effect on quality. It's very handy. Also, the plug is pure gold to ensure the best possible connection with your cd player/walkman. They also fold into a very compact position, which can be helpful with limited space.
Overall
Overall these are a great set of headphones, near perfection. The little things such as the outward noise projection, and the slightly loose fit have kept it from a 5, but still, they are the only headphones I use ^_^. The added features such as folding and volume control is what makes them great. I give them a 4 out of 5.
