Panasonic’s 2013 over-the-ear headphones

By Drew Prindle January 8, 2013

Not to be outdone by the likes of Monster, Velodyne, PDP, or any other of the dozens of headphone manufacturers at CES this year, Panasonic has pulled the curtain back on their new lineup of over-ear headphones. We realize that headphones might not be the first product that comes to mind when you hear the name Panasonic, but they’re no slouch when it comes to audio. We haven’t heard the HXD3E’s firsthand quite yet, but until then here’s a quick rundown of their specs:

120 dB SPL
10 Hz – 25 kHz frequency response
32 ohms impedance
30 mm drivers
1.20 m cable length

We’ll get back to you with more details when we get our hands on a pair.

Along with updated party speakers, Bluetooth speakers, and tons of wireless earbuds and headphones, JBL has something new to show CES 2024 attendees: its first set of open-ear earbuds. They're called the SoundGear Sense, and JBL expects they'll be available by March 2024 for $150, in both black and white colors.

As with all open-ear earbuds, the SoundGear Sense let you hear your music, calls, and podcasts while allowing you to maintain perfect awareness of your surroundings. Instead of sitting inside your ear and/or sealing your ear canals with silicone tips, the SoundGear Sense sit just outside your outer ear and use air conduction (as opposed to bone conduction) to let you hear audio.
