The new Pioneer SE-MJ5 (MSRP: $89) distills the essence of the Pioneer professional headphone products into a more compact design with performance engineered for consumer audiences. The light-weight and portable oM delivers clear, accurate sound and isolates the listener from outside noise. The headphones offer velour and leather-type interchangeable ear pads for maximum comfort, a portable folding design, a max input power of 1,500 mW with 105 dB sensitivity, a 2.0 m (6.6') OFC Litz extension cord and 3.5 and 6.5 mm adapters for connection to a variety of audio sources — including portable/MP3 audio players as well as audio/video components.
