JVC joins the headphone-blaring game
comment: 6 | Thursday, May 05 (2005) 01:28PM | Posted by Robert Sinke
Well, you either like this type of design very much... or think it's the most bland thing ever. Or wait - you don't think anything of it at all.

Whatever your opinion might be, fact is that JVC's XA-A50 headphones follow the trendline of cups-'n-playa-hybrid technology. Yeah, that's one difficult way to put that this thing has 128MB (sigh) worth of internal memory for playing MP3 or WMA (DRM). Whole things weighs some 57 grams while squeezing 20 hours worth of energy out of one simple AAA-battery. Price is said to float around 120 Euro or 150 USD.

wow, your memory must be utter crap if you can't remember your playlist of under 20 songs. i think it was a good idea, but it should've started with at least 256, optimally 512. but i'd still take a muvo micro over it.
