first introduced at the CES earlier this year, the JVC Xtreme Xplosives headphones aka XX headphones, are heading for the Japan market. the XX range includes a pair of in-ear headphones – designated model HA-FX3X and HA-FX1X, as well as a around-ear and on-ear headphones – designated model HA-M5X and HA-S4X, respectively. targeted towards younger and active users, the XX branded headphones are said to be heavy on “street inspired design” but i thought it reminds me more of the movie “XXX”. no relation but probably its the “XX” branding on the headphones cups that triggered that connection. we usually associate colorful hues and funky designs with street culture but apparently, these XX branded headphones do not follow that association much.

the in-ear HA-FX1X sports a 10-mm drivers with neodymium magnet and comes package with three sizes of silicone ear buds. the on-ear HA-S4X and the around-ear HAM5X features 40-mm and 50-mm drivers with neodymium magnets, respectively. there are no pricing indicated for the Japan market but judging from its pricing announced earlier for the US market, they should be under the ‘affordable’ region. in case you are wondering what’s the pricing in US market are like, the HA-FX1X has a MRSP of just $29.95, $39.95 for the HA-S4X and the HA-M5X costs $49.95. looks like the pricing competes head-to-head with the likes of Audio Technica more than Dre’s.
