Review: My Review - I've had the JVC HARX500 -over ear- Headphones now for a week. What I wanted: 1. Replace existing (in)ear-buds due to wear and poor sound quality. 2. Be able to hear more bass, mids, treble...better sound quality. 3. High comfort and stylish, as I commute on the train everyday to work & school. 4. Good price. 5. Noise cancellation I already own a pair of professional studio headphones (Sennheiser), which i've had for more than 5 years. But they are big and not for wear 'on the street' - I just use them for in the music studio. I've been drumming for 13 years -both in studios & live on stage-, and I have high expectations when I listen to music, whether at home, in the car, or on my mp3 player (Phillips GoGear vibe). I need to hear it all & it annoys me when the sound isn't right, like the basic EQ levels. I am always changing them to suit the song I'm listening to. I listen to a wide variety of music; from 90's grunge to temporary psychadelic trance to jazz and talk radio and everything in between. That said though, I am a college student, so I didn't expect to be able to find something with high quality sound for what I was able/willing to spend. I read pretty much all the reviews for the headphones in my price range and decided to get these JVC HARX500's. At first the 300's seemed enough but for $7 more you get the Neodymium Driver. JVC has always been a favorite of mine when choosing any music related electronics and I am, again, really happy with these headphones. The sound is well distributed between crispness and lower range. The structure is sturdy, yet flexible and not too heavy. It meant all my expectations: 1. Good replacement for my old in-ear plugs, and I will add that it probably will be a for any, as the over-the-ear provide so much more depth to the sound. 2. I think the bass is really nice. Not too muddy or too much. The mid's are right on par, and the treble is cristal clear. If you have an equalizer, I suggest fooling around to find your own personal sound preferences. 3. These headphones are really comfy. You can adjust them every which way and (like mentioned in other reviews) the 'muffs' can turn to fit your ears. They are not too big, so I can easily put them in my backpack, and on the train, or walking around they, don't say "look at me". The cord is too long for my comfort, but I just tie it up, and stick it in my pants/jacket pocket. The headphones also even keep my ears warm in the winter! 4. The price is, for such a high quality product of its kind, really unbeatable. 5. I can turn this bad boy up and not hear a thing when your talking to me, or other background noises like trains (stations), cars, buses. I just 'tune out' and enjoy the music! In short, if your looking for these things I mentioned in new headphones...get this one and you wont be disappointed. Review: OMG!!! Stop your search for inexpensive haedphones - Wow!! Just received today. Don't know where to start. These are truly fantastic in every regard! I listen to all kinds of music and have owned expensive stereo systems in my car and home. This review concerns using the HA-RX500's listening to music through my PC. I am very particular about quality. I want to hear all the details in a piece of recorded music and want background parts at the right sound level in relation to the other instruments/vocals in a song. These headphones have AMAZING sound--not for $20--just amazing sound in their own right. I read a review that said they have better sound quality than a $120 pair of headphones, and I couldn't agree more. Sound is rich and full. Can hear all layers of all types of music. Bass is very impressive as are the highs, but what truly impressed me, and which I have found lacking in two other sets of headphones I recently ordered, is the quality of the mid-range sounds. The headphones are incredibly light-feeling on your head and the ear pads are soft and very, very comfortable. The long cord is absolutely no problem and looks and feels substantive, unlike some other cheap, very thin cords. They are excellent at outside sound dampening. I researched so many headphones for hours and bought a pair of JVC HAV-570 "Super Bass" headphones. Admittedly, they were only $13, but they had many of the same specs as the X500's, i.e., 40mm drivers, etc, but the sound on the X500'S is literally five times better, and this saying a lot, because I was mildly satisfied with the cheaper pair (which got four stars overall on desertcart). However, wanting more, I purchased a pair of Audio-Technica ATH-M30 Professional Headphones through desertcart for $40. They lacked range and were tight and felt smothering when worn. They don't come close to the JVC X500 in sound quality. I returned them and was going to settle for the other JVC's until I saw these on desertcart). I am not an expert at describing what makes for high sound quality but I know that when someone says, when describing headphones, that they hear parts of songs they couldn't previously hear well with other headphones, that means something, if accurate. That description is absolutely true with these headphones. It's not so much you will hear sounds that you never heard at all, it is that you will hear instrumental parts and vocals (such as some back up vocals), much clearer and stronger than you hear them with other headphones. I must re-emphasize that the sound from these headphones is incredibly rich and full, especially if your system has a graphic equalizer that you can admust to your particular likes. You cannot go wrong with these headphones!! I am almost in disbelief that they cost only $18, seem solidly made, are extremely comfortable and the sound will impress you to no end. They are heaven! ## Features - Ear-direct structure - connectivity_technology: Wired - Sensitivity: 100 dB/mW - Maximum Input Capacity : 1200mW (IEC) - Nominal Impendence : 32 ohms - connector_type: 2.5 - Large 40mm driver - Twist-action design - Cushioned headband - Gold-plated plug ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000NV0SG2 | | Additional Features | Dj-Style | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Antenna Location | Music | | Audio Driver Size | 40 millimeters | | Audio Driver Type | Dynamic Driver | | Best Sellers Rank | #61,801 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #1,481 in Over-Ear Headphones | | Brand | JVC | | Brand Name | JVC | | Built-In Media | Full-size Headphones | | Cable Features | Detachable | | Color | Silver | | Compatible Devices | Cellphones | | Connectivity Technology | Wired | | Control Method | Remote | | Controller Type | Volume Control, Media Control | | Customer Package Type | Standard Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 1,387 Reviews | | Ear Placement | Over Ear | | Earpiece Shape | over-ear | | Enclosure Material | Neodymium | | Form Factor | Over Ear | | Frequency Range | 5 Hz - 30 kHz | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00046838030215, 08850006226353 | | Headphone Folding Features | Over Ear | | Headphone Jack | 3.5 mm Jack | | Headphones Ear Placement | Over Ear | | Impedance | 32 ohm | | Item Type Name | Headphones | | Item Weight | 14.08 ounces | | Manufacturer | JVC | | Model Number | HARX500 | | Noise Control | None | | Number of Items | 1 | | Specific Uses For Product | Music | | Style Name | 500 | | UPC | 749860060235 803982929310 031113342183 012951515809 071030161658 806294957897 809187165041 102930548833 012303660126 521375523067 182682329416 046838030215 777786120405 989898656929 971475303364 523161053581 755034030690 021112456905 885471318904 168141253560 053786041767 809387583270 617407329803 795327730715 885633429530 807035645417 163120669615 001910134878 021112223538 696582446192 1159706991… | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 Year Parts , 1 Year Labor | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | | Wireless Technology | Infrared | ## Product Details - **Brand:** JVC - **Color:** Silver - **Ear Placement:** Over Ear - **Form Factor:** Over Ear - **Impedance:** 32 ohm ## Images ![JVC HARX500 Full-Size Headphones (Silver) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/612PwxTJpKL.jpg) ![JVC HARX500 Full-Size Headphones (Silver) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Zyr6c-YUL.jpg) ![JVC HARX500 Full-Size Headphones (Silver) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Gea+w6lAL.jpg) ![JVC HARX500 Full-Size Headphones (Silver) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81kDsH9zBbL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Customer Package Type, Size, Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My Review *by B***O on January 10, 2012* I've had the JVC HARX500 -over ear- Headphones now for a week.

They are heaven! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ JVC Headphones: HA-RX500 vs HA-RX700 *by D***G on February 23, 2013* I purchased these because I wanted inexpensive knock around computer over-the-ear headphones. I also own the JVC HA-RX700 o-t-e headphones as well and will include the specs and my observations. The 500s definitely do not have the audio dynamics that the 700s present. The specs speak for themselves on these two models. Not as much bass and mid-range when compared to the RX700. The bass is okay for the price. You get what you pay for between the two. The 500s are light weight and do not over burden the ears or the head. I have average size ears and they just fit into the ear pads. I have found the 700s, after an hour, to feel heavy on the head but still comfortable. The ear pads on the 700s are a bit bigger and fit around my ears very well. The 500s does not keep out all the exterior noise as well as the 700s. Neither do a perfect job but the 700s due to having a better build and better audio dynamics keep out more extraneous noise. I tried out the 500 and the 700 on my Blackstar HT-5R amp. Definitely much more dynamic audio with the 700. The 500 can't even keep up with the 700s ability to go deep into bass or reproduce the mids and highs. Here are some specs to compare: ..... JVC .................. RX500 ............... RX700 ........... ------------------------------------------------------- Driver Unit: .......... 1.57"/40mm ....... 1.95"/50mm Magnet Type: ...... Neodynmium ...... Neodynmium Freq. Resp.: ...... 10Hz-22,000Hz .... 8Hz-25,000Hz Sensitivity: ............. 105dB .............. 105dB Max. Input Cap: ..... 1200mW ........... 1500mW Ear Coupling: ....... Circumaural ....... Circumaural Ear Pad IS Dia.: ....... 1-3/4" .............. 2-1/8" Cord Length: ..... 11.48 ft./3.5m ... 11.48 ft./3.5m Weight: ............. 6.94oz./194g .... 11.64oz./330g Accessories for both models include a 0.25"/6.33mm Gold plated Adapter The RX500 are sturdy and well worth the $20 you might pay. I did notice that the 500 has a thinner cord than the 700. What that means I am not sure. I believe the 500s are discontinued so one can still shop around and find a good closeout price. I paid about $20 American in January 2013. The RX700s, ran about $34.00 when purchased in June of 2012. The RX700s are worth the extra $10 in terms of overall sound. If you feel you will be using the 700 for longer than an hour you may want to find some comparable phones that are lighter. Or you can do more neck exercises. Will more expensive headphones, $50-150, be more comfortable? I don't know. I would hope that would be the case. I gave the RX500s four stars because of the price paid, relative comfort over an hour and the the sound delivered. ------------------------------ UPDATE 04/25/2014: The Rx500s are still going strong and still intact. No breakage or wearing on the cord. I use them exclusively inside the home on my computer. ## Frequently Bought Together - JVC HARX500 Over-The-Ear Headphones - Ruaeoda 20 ft Double Shielded 3.5mm AUX Extension Cable, Black, Male to Female, Braided, Compatible with MP3 Player, CD Car Stereo --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sg/products/1838857-jvc-harx500-full-size-headphones-silver](https://www.desertcart.sg/products/1838857-jvc-harx500-full-size-headphones-silver) --- *Product available on Desertcart Singapore* *Store origin: SG* *Last updated: 2026-09-26*
