JVC Announces New High-Performance, Lightweight Around-The-Ear Headphones
JVC today announced the addition of a new high-performance model to its headphone line. The new JVC HA-S600 is a lightweight, foldable around-the-ear headphone that offers superior bass reproduction and soft memory foam ear pads that provide excellent isolation from background noise.
To provide the best possible sound clarity and deep bass reproduction, the HA-S600 employs a bass-boosting port and a carbon compound diaphragm. This design structure ensures that sound pressure in the headphone housing is equalized, which results in superior performance. Performance is further enhanced through the use of a 1.57-inch (40mm) neodymium driver unit.
The HA-S600’s around-the-ear design helps to block out background noise while also providing a comfortable fit thanks to the sound-insulating soft memory foam ear pads.
With its foldable design, the HA-S600 is easy to pack, while remaining lightweight and comfortable during extended use. Other features include 3.94-foot (1.2m) cord with gold-plated iPhone®-compatible slim plug.
The JVC HA-S600 will be available in September 2010 in a choice of three colors – white, black and blue – for $49.95.
