Reviews around money (4.73 of 5)

  • Its an on-ear phone for the student/commuter that only wants to risk ear bud money
  • Put it this way.... as long as jvc continue to make quality sounding headphones at bargain prices I will never waste my money on overpriced beats by Dre or Bose......
  • Although these are economical, don't waste your money on ordering.
  • Very worth the money though despite these two minor complaints
  • Maybe we got part of a bad batch of these since we bought them all at once, but after three tries I'm not wasting any more money to test that possibility
