First Impressions
When the headphones arrived, I would have to say that my first impressions were good. The clear packaging showed everything intact, and the headband and earpieces looked comfortable. Even more importantly, the earpieces themselves looked large enough to fit well on my big ears, which is important for bass effects. People often underestimate how important a proper fit on the ears is for high quality sound.
Based on the packaging and look of the set, one could easily assume they would be very expensive. This is not the case, however, as the AHS-502â??s retail for roughly $25.00 US at most outlets. Slightly more expensive then the Plantronics, but still not out of the range of your average consumer.
The following are the features of the headset:
