very good value
Good phones for the price
Other criteria included:
- Inexpensive. I don't believe in dropping outrageous amounts of money for something that I will use only for my mp3 player at work.
- Sound quality. While I'm looking for something that won't break the bank, I want a quality set of phones that will give an overall decent sound.
With this in mind I came across the Jensen JF25's reviews. They were mostly favorable, and so I gave them a shot. For this price, you get a great set of headphones. They aren't going to blow you away, but they definitely do their job.
I believe I'm still in the break-in period with these headphones, but I can echo some of the other review made. The bass, while not lacking, can be slightly overbearing at times. Also, I'm not sure if this will go away with time, but some tones can come across harsh (but inconsistently so).
Overall, if you're looking for something cheap, you should check these out. These phones are not for audiophile elitists looking for a bargain. Rather, I believe these phones will fit the average listener on a budget extremely well.
Good sound, but hurts my ears.
Because these are closed ear headphones, you should expect the discomfort normally associated with wearing headphones for an extended period of time. So, it's a good idea to remove the headphones every so often. However, discomfort shouldn't include causing my ears to hurt.
The sound is pretty good for the price. I wouldn't say it's great; my Harmon Kardon speakers are better. I use these headphones to listen to audio when my roommate is in the room.
These headphones come with a volume control as part of the cord. I don't use the mute button because you have to hold it down, but I just turn the volume all the way down if I need to.
Countless times I've dropped the headphones, banged it, yanked it when the cable was caught on something, but the headphones still work. The 2 meter cable is nice and long, longer than the usual 2-5 feet you usually get. My final recommendation: if you're looking for cheap cheap headphones with good audio, get these, but don't wear them for extened periods of time.
Muffled sound
I *will* miss the volume control on the cord, and the "mute" button, though it only drops the volume substantially, rather than completely removing the sound. I won't miss looking like a weirdo in them. They bow out just above your ears. They were comfy, I will say, though I only wore them for 20 minutes.
