Panasonic’s RP-HTX7 Retro Headphones are flat-out cool, combining classic styling with solid performance and a reasonable price tag.
The design may not be for everyone, but if it works for you, the headphones are available in seven different colors so that you have to think that much longer before pulling the trigger.
These over-the-ear headphones have large foam earpads that provide a snug and comfortable fit. Specs include 40mm large-diameter drive units, 99dB/mW sensitivity, 7Hz-22KHz frequency response, neodymium magnets, and gold-plated plug adapter. The headphones tip the scales at a reasonable 5.4 oz.
Retail price is $59.95, but you can find them for less online (prices include shipping): black for $37.99, white for $39.64, green for $39.72, cream for $47.98, blue for $47.98, red for $56.97, pink for $59.98.
There’s also a new Ryan Scheckler Limited Edition RP-HTX7-RS version, which is basically the red set with a print of the skateboarder’s autograph on one of the cups. Why you’d paid $10 more for that privilege is beyond us…
