WAYNE, NJ, September 21, 2010 – JVC today announced the addition of two new models to its line of inner ear headphones, both available in nine colors matching the iPod nano 5G. For the active user, JVC offers a new sports clip headphone, the HA-EBX5, which comes with soft rubber ear hooks for a secure and comfortable fit. Also new are the stylish HA-FX22 clear color headphones.

HA-EBX5

Designed for sports and active lifestyles, the splash-proof HA-EBX5 incorporate a soft rubber ear hook that fits around the outer ear to hold the earpieces comfortably in place. This makes the headphones ideal for exercise and fitness activities, as they remain secure and comfortable even during high-impact workouts. For discerning listeners, the 0.43-inch (11mm) neodymium driver unit provides crisp and powerful sound reproduction. The HA-EBX5 is available in a choice of nine colors — blue, black, orange, green, pink, red, silver, violet and yellow.

The inner ear HA-FX22 features a striking translucent, or “clear color”, design for a fresh, new look.  The powerful 0.36-inch (9.2mm) neodymium driver unit provides clear sound, while superior sound isolation from background noise is achieved with the inner ear design.  The HA-FX22 is available in the same nine colors as the HA-EBX5.

To ensure high quality sound reproduction, both models feature friction noise reduction cords of 3.94 feet (1.2 meters) with a slim, gold-plated iPhone-compatible plug. The earpieces come in three sizes to ensure a customized fit, and the headphones come with soft rubber cushions that provide hours of comfort for any wearer.

The JVC HA-EBX5 sports headphones and the HA-FX22 clear color headphones are currently available for $19.95 and $14.95, respectively.
