Q: QuestionWhat is the difference between the HD series and EH & PXC series?I noticed that there are different lines of consumer over ear headphones you offer. What is the difference between the HD (ex. HD280) and the EH as well as the PXC series of headphones that are in a comparable price range with the HD280s?
Asked by tom.
- A:Answer Hello- The PXC models are always noise cancelling capable (they have NoiseGard inside them to reduce droning, low frequency rumble). The HD series is "Headphone-Dynamic", meaning they are all dynamic headphones that go on or around your ear. The eH series stands for "evolution Headphone", which was designed for musicians who are into recording, DJ work or mixing/editing. There are various differences depending on the need and sound quality desired, but you get what you pay for-- our lower priced models are an excellent value and a great way to get awesome sound without spending a fortune. As you move up the line, expect better sound, more accessories and other features such as NoiseGard, etc.

Q: QuestionHow durable are these?I am looking to replace my old skullcandy headphones , which broke on me from simple daily use. Do these seem sturdy enough to last? And if they DO break, am i covered by the warranty?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Hello- These were built for professional use in the field in the most strenuous environments; film studios, broadcast trucks, recording studios, live sporting events and so on. These environments are extremely tough on equipment, however, the HD 280 was designed to withstand that abuse. It is extremely durable and has totally replaceable cables and padding for a long operating life (no more throwing away a headphone because there are no parts for it). The warranty is 2 years.

Q: QuestionCan these headphones be plugged into the receiver on a home theater?
Asked by Marty.
- A:Answer They sure can, in fact most headphone today come with a 1/4" stereo adapter which your 1/8" phone plug will plug into. If they don't come with this adapter, you can buy one at Best Buy too. Just remember to lower the volume before using your headphones.

Q: QuestionAny suggestions on a suitable case for this model?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer I found an old binocular case that was a near perfect fit, and being a hard, lined shell offered some protection without scratching. other than that, if I were looking for another case I would head to the nearest 2nd hand store (salvation army etc.) A lot of things like polaroid cameras and similar sized items came in hard cases, like binoculars, and will likely cost less than 1$. If you'd prefer something that looked nicer check out the outdoor/camping, section of any big department store. A tackle box, or mini (6 pac) cooler come to mind it may be a little bigger than ideal but you can always put a mic. extra cable, mp3, c.d.'s whatever in with your phones to take up space.

Q: QuestionIs there a big sound quality difference in HD 280's compared to $20 skullcandy dub?I'm looking for good sounding closed headphones that are around $100, so would these be good for me? this is considering that the only other 'phones i've had are cheap skullcandy(which is starting to lack the sound quality that my young 14 yr old ears desire). I want nice isolation to drown out the rumbling sound of my school bus, and a very good sound comnpared to skullcandy dub
Asked by Miki.
- A:Answer Hello- Hd 280 will give you fantastic value for the money spent. These are recording studio grade headphones used all over the world by professionals who seek uncolored, natural sound with extreme detail. The sound isolation is impeccable, up to 30 dB, which is quite significant.
