Audio Technica SJ5 Review

Audio Technica's SJ5 budget headphones are a great pair of cans aspiring DJ's, musicians and people who want to experience the richness and depth of bass that only headphones can offer.

I bought these cans on Amazon Japan for 3347 yen which is about S$50. A huge bargain when you compare it to the prices in Singapore.

It is sturdily built and is very compact as it is foldable and no one would be embarrased to wear these headphones on the MRT or bus.

Pros of the SJ5

• Price is very reasonable for what you get
• Good, Decent bass enough for the average joe
• Sturdily built
• Compact
• Stylish chrome lining

Cons of the SJ5

• The ear muffs do not fit together (perfectly, they do fit together but the head band goes in an awkward position) which makes it slightly less portable

• Doesn't cancel out outside noise well
• Doesn't come with a carrying case.

Conclusion

Overall these pairs of cans are perfect for an average users who doesn't need top notch sound but rather something that can play audio very well, portable, stable, affordable and stylish.

Tech Decks?? What Are They???

Just, Walked into Toysrus at Paragon looking for a deck of cards and by the cashier I found many miniature skateboards that were about 3 inches long. I was curios so I bought one of these little skate boards for S$5.

After doing some research online apparently you can do ollies and kickflips with these.

These 'Tech Decks' also resemble the skateboards in 'Touch Grind' an iPhone App available on the app store. In this app you try to do tricks in a skate park to earn points to unlock new skate boards.

Even after reading many How-To's I couldn't do a single trick. But if somehow I do, rest assured I will keep you posted.

Back to Tech Decks...

Beneath the mass of these miniature boards I saw some ramps that you put together and 'ride' with your tech deck.

When I came back home I opened the package and inside to my surprise were a double sided screwdriver and bolt tightener thing...

What do YOU think???
