After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain. I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain. If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration.

AOpen HP-590 Headphone Review

Author: Dennis Garcia

Published: Thursday, March 20, 2003

Conclusion

This upcoming holiday season I'll probably lead off a lot of gift giving with these headphones. I can talk all day about how great they are, but you've really got to try them out to believe me.

The vibration pack isn't the only thing that makes these headphones great; they are very comfortable to wear, which is important for any extended time at your favorite LAN party. The sound and frequency response is amazing with the advertised 20Hz to 20Khz appearing to be dead on. Match that up with an amazingly low frequency response (20Hz), and portability and you might have just bought your very last pair of gaming or personal use headphones.

The Good Things

They don't suck happy smile

Bass response like nothing I've seen in a headphone before!
Handy carrying pouch
Nice feel around ears
Vibration pack for bass enhancement

The Bad Things

I don't have more of them
Cord is pretty short, extention cord needed.
