How much better are these than the Panasonic RP-HTX7 (previous model)? Are these worth the extra $30?

I think these are more comfortable than the $30 ones. I can wear them for ~4 hours and then it only hurts a little behind my ears. Sound quality is probably better too, but I can't remember because I bought the $30 ones so long ago. If you're looking for comfort- buy these. If you're looking for style and/or a cheaper version- buy the $30 ones.

Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with the previous model. I bought this one based on a Google search of good quality headphones. Had I known that there was a previous model costing $30 less, I would have opted for that one instead. I'm not too thrilled with this one. The sound quality is great, but it is lacking in sturdiness; quite light weight.

There is no comparison with the Panasonic plasmas unless you move up to a VERY expensive LED. These are bargains. If you want to step up slightly in picture quality from the Panasonic S60, look at the Panasonic ST60 series. Those have a shade darker blacks and a less reflective screen. Check the CNET reviews if you have any doubt as they are well known for their reviews.

I was just debating the SX20 vs SX30, so I was really glad to find this discussion. I assumed the 30 would be an improvement, but it sounds from this discussion and many customer reviews that 20 is a better choice for image quality.

The Samsung has buzzing issues, while the Panasonics (this one at least) has not demonstrated this problem. Everything else being even would lean me towards the GT25 (which is what I bought).

I purchased both these cameras at the same time, the sony at my local best buy and a panasonic on amazon. They are pretty close to the same, the sony has a little more true color indoors but the panasonic has more vibrant colors outdoor. The sony looks a little more washed out outside. I was impressed with both cameras low light recording. The image stabilizer worked a little better on the sony I thought, the problem I have with the panasonic is that it almost tries to overcorrect the shake. It seemed any time I used the touch screen while recording (ie...zooming) I notice a slight jump in the picture. I think with a little practice I can eliminate this by how hard I tap the screen, but it's touchy. I didn't seem to have that problem with the sony. The panasonic gets a little warm in your hand, but considering I use it in a hockey arena it doubles as a hand warmer! The panasonic comes with a video light and a hotshoe and u have more manual settings. The software that comes with both is crap, plan on buying third party editing software no matter wich way u go. Is the difference worth the $70 more I paid for the sony? probably not, I can buy an extra battery and SD card for the pan. If you could find them for about the same price though, I would go for the sony.

If you don't mind regular headphones then I recommend the Panasonic RP-HT21 Lightweight Headphones with XBS Port.Here's a link: Panasonic RP-HT21 Lightweight Headphones with XBS PortNot only do they last much much longer but they're also cheaper and they have good bass. My first pair lasted about 8 months. I got my second pair in July last year and they're still working. These are the best headphones I ever had.

I personally like the 50" Panasonic plasm. I have mostly looked at the 50PZ700u. I person I work with, who is a stickler for this kind of stuff, bought this TV and really has enjoyed it. According to him you really cant beat it without going up in price by a few thousand dollars. Just as a side note, best I can tell these couple of models use the same panel and just have a few minor differences.50PZ700U - My preferred right now50PZ750U - Same with some more plugs and color settings. Costs more as well.50PZ77U - Not totally sure what the difference is, but it seems very similar. I personally like the 50" Panasonic plasm. I have mostly looked at the 50PZ700u.

Have not compared these. Still feel the way the posts insert into the earpiece is weak and prone to break(both sides broke on my daughter's set). We replaced this headphone with the Sennheiser Momentum On-Ear ($230)and the Bang and Olufsen BeoPlay H6 ($399) and have been happy with both. Hope this helps.

I have a GF1 and GH1 and the XR520v and CX520v. Panasonic has better manual control for stills, but the Sony stabilization and AVCHD codec implementation are *much* stronger.

I'd actually recommend these... Panasonic RPHJE120K In-Ear Headphone, Black

I can't speak directly for the 4P, but I have a two year old pair of 6i that I'm listening to right now that still sound astounding. Contrast this with a pair of Shure E3C that I had to have replaced after 10 months and I think you'll get an idea of the durability of these 'phones. In fact, I am starting to prefer these over the more expensive E3Cs - much more clarity. I may just sell those and get a second pair of 6i or move up to the 4P.

These are the two camera's I am also deciding between. I have heard such good things about the panasonic...but I have no idea how they compare!

Personally I rank them a bit higher, others will say these don't have enough bass (I would strongly disagree) however to be honest I haven't used these in ~9months, I gave them to my fiance and bought some ATH-A900X's which are the same driver but with aluminium housing and sound a few notches above both.Both are fantastic headphones, but the M50's have a much flatter soundstage compared to the ATH-A700X's, I would also say that they are not as comfortable. Slightly more portable.

I think both are great cameras...Canon seems to perform a little better, but the difference is very slight, this, according to the reviews I read...I think the bottom line is; Canon performs a little better, the LCD screen can be moved, and it has a hot shoe for a better flash unit, but Panasonic has RAW format and HD video, and also, the zoom can be used with the video format, something most cameras don't have...I guess since both are equally good, you should buy the one you feel more comfortable with, or you like the most...you can't go wrong with either one...Good luck!!

I would say no. These sound good, but are not comfortable long term. They appear comparable to the HA-V570 based on the specs and price. May I suggest upgrading to the JVC's HA-RX700 series? They are in the $30 to $35 range and are my regular headphones.

Put simply, Panasonic THINK they are still the premium brand that they used to be 20 years ago. They aren't. Sony are heading down the same road now, charging a premium price for the same Chinese made nonsense that everyone else is selling for less than half their price. Both Panasonic & Sony are desperately clinging to the belief that we will pay a premium for their supposed better quality.

I bought the Altec Lansing BXR1220. I think I only paid $11 a few weeks ago but now they are ~$17. Whatever... great upgrade over the crap speakers on small TVs like the Samsung 22". Powered by the TVs USB so no electrical brick to deal with. Plugs right into the headphone jack and is a huge improvement.
