JVC Announces New High-Performance, Lightweight Around-The-Ear Headphones
WAYNE, NJ, September 2, 2010 – JVC today announced the addition of a new high-performance model to its headphone line. The new JVC HA-S600 is a lightweight, foldable around-the-ear headphone that offers superior bass reproduction and soft memory foam ear pads that provide excellent isolation from background noise.
To provide the best possible sound clarity and deep bass reproduction, the HA-S600 employs a bass-boosting port and a carbon compound diaphragm.

Performance is further enhanced through the use of a 1.57-inch (40mm) neodymium driver unit.
The HA-S600’s around-the-ear design helps to block out background noise while also providing a comfortable fit thanks to the sound-insulating soft memory foam ear pads.
With its foldable design, the HA-S600 is easy to pack, while remaining lightweight and comfortable during extended use. Other features include 3.94-foot (1.2m) cord with gold-plated iPhone®-compatible slim plug.
