The Packaging

The packaging of the Scosche RH656md headphones provides most of the information you need. It tells you about the microphone and the volume control, the materials used, and Scosche’s history with electronics.

The Fit

These headphones are unlike any others I’ve tried before. The Scosche RH656md headphones are equipped with state of the art sound and comfort technology. When you see headphones are “on-ear” headphones, you might think that they are uncomfortable, and with some brands this may be true, but not with these. Each cushion is made out of Viscoelastic memory foam that reacts to your body heat for a soft but firm impression.  The foam adjusts and ensures that the comfort on your ears is always maintained.
