JVC HA-L50B Headphones

Date Published: 4/13/07

JVC's HA-L50B headphones are just what you need when your child's headphones are broken or lost:  basic, inexpensive headphones that get the job done. If you are looking for something a little splashier than black, they are also available in blue (HA-L50A), red (HA-L50R), white (HA-L50W) and silver (HA-L50S).

The HA-L50B headphones are traditionally styled, with a basic earcup design and headband. They fold up for easy transport in a pocket or backpack. If you seek high-fidelity performance, you've come to the wrong place, but what did you expect for a suggested retail price of $8?

These don't represent much of an upgrade over the usually lackluster headphones included with today's portable audio players, but if you just need inexpensive replacement headphones, you can't go wrong with JVC's HA-L50B.


Pro:  Multiple color options, inexpensive, foldable
Con:  Low fidelity, somewhat fragile
