Product Description

 
Acoustic Research's new, patented 900MHz technology achieves a greater than 70dB signal-to-noise ratio, allowing the headphones to deliver an ultra-high performance. This "silence" is essential in conveying the full impact of movie soundtracks - including subtlebackground effects - that can be presented with the most accurate imaging and realism. Designed for the ultimate in extended-wear comfort, these headphones feature angled, swiveling earcups and self-adjusting headband to achieve the best possible fit. Oversized ear pads gently cushion the outer ears for the continuous wearing ease that is essential when watching a long movie.

An exercise in frustration.

Date of Review:  Jul 30, 2002
The Bottom Line: The lack of performance isn't worth even this relatively low price.
