Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Panasonic RP-HT21 Lightweight Headphones with XBS port for increased bass response

Customer Review: These Surprised The Heck Out Of Me
Summary: 5 Stars

These very economical headphones just blew me away. I read the reviews on them so I bought a couple pair for my wife who can't stand ear buds. I own $350 Senhieser studio headphones among other things like expensive ear buds and such so I know what quality is. These are not equal to the studio headphones but for $5 bucks they blew me off my chair. I have decided to keep one pair of the ones I purchased for my wife for myself and just ordered 2 more just in case they don't last very long. For 5 bucks these are worth it.

I haven't really tested these to the fullest as my IPOD, laptop sound card, and other mp3 players don't have the power to really push them hard but the following is the best approximation of what I have found so far.

The 100db/mW rating is a little conservative as I think it may exceed 105 or better. In otherwords they seem to do it. What this means to those who are not electrical engineers is a milliwatt is a very small amount of electrical power and a 100 decibel sound is very loud. So these headphones don't need a lot of power to make a lot of sound.

Now to the quality of that sound, they are rated at 16 hertz to 22,000 hertz. What this really means is if you are a teenager (youngster) who has not destroyed their hearing yet you might be able to hear sounds of 16,000 hertz or better and feel sounds lower than 100 hertz. The reason they are rated beyond the normal hearing range is that sounds are a complex mix and being able to recreate sounds at these extremes affects and blends in with the sounds you can actually hear providing a more accurate reproduction. These head phones have good bass response for the price. The highs are clean enough to tinkle with the sound of broken glass hitting concrete in an auditorium. Again these are not $200 plus headphones but I would have placed them at about the $30 - $40 range. I have spent that much and received less in quality. But I felt ripped off by those inferior headphones but these I would have accepted at that price.

Simply put, if you are listening out on the road or want a diposable set of headphones that do the job well enough to keep you from pining for your studio headphones then buy these.
