4 out of 5 stars Good sound and quality for the price range.   May 25, 2008
G. Warner (Massachusetts)
As my title says, these are good quality sound and good quality construction for the price range. But before going into details...Let me be clear on which product I have: RCA HP242 model behind the neck headphones. These are the 30mm driver / 32 Ohm ones.

Also, some sources show these as "in the ear" phones. To my way of stating it, these speakers set "on" the ear. They do not completely enclose the ear and they do not go in the ear. The two speakers are connected by a plastic/rubber part that goes over your ear (like glasses) and behind your neck (not over your head).

Ok...Excellent headphones / neckphones. They sound great. (Sure, they are probably not audiophile quality, but really good for the money). They stay on my ears while walking or using the elliptical machines at the gym. I like that there is just one cord from the one (left) ear piece. It's less stuff to get in the way. The cord is plenty long enough but not too long. I also like that the cord seems heavy-duty; it had a cloth-like cover on it. Some cords on other brands seem like they are super thin and will break. The plug-in-jack isn't straight and isn't at 90 degrees -- I like that; it makes getting to my volume button easier. ~~ I bought these for very little money and was skeptical that they could be decent for this amount. But these are some of the best phones I've owned (not including home pro-quality headphones).

So far I love them. The only reasons I give 4-stars instead of 5: These are not hi-fi audiophile phones, so I don't think they can possibly get 5-stars. Also, I read another review that stated that the cushion padding that contacts your ears wears out. I can see that it is thin and will probably wear out in a few months. ~~ But still, very worth it for the price.
