Overview RHA MA390, RHA MA650 and RHA MA750 Wireless - robust wireless headphones
Devices / / December 19, 2019
Many characteristics of MA Wireless Series models are the same, so in the course of the review, we will talk about the three samples at once, sometimes pausing to describe the differences in MA390, MA650 and MA750.
Equipment
In the box with the headphones - several sets of foam and silicone ear pads, cable with Type-C-connector for charging, carrying case and instructions.
We were put on review samples for testers - just headphones to put on them foam ear pads.
Design
RHA MA Wireless model series - a classic in-ear monitor, connected by a flexible tube. Crura made of rubber, on their housing is plastic elements and bowls themselves "ears" are made of cast aluminum.
Bow bends even under extreme angles without any consequences, metal bowl, and in the place of connection cable - massive fortifications. These headphones can be worn in a backpack, even without a cover, and it is unlikely that something will happen to them.
Protection class models - IPX4, but a jack for charging from the MA650 and MA750 are not covered by a flap. If there will get water, then to connect to the network will have to wait until they are dry. you can not swim in these headphones, but the sweat on simulators and listen to music in the rain - as much as necessary.
On the one hand, headphones look boring - all our models are made in black color and attracted the attention of a silver metal cup with speakers and remote housing. At the same time, this approach is justified: the model of the RHA are equally suited to both sports and the classic suit.
Model RHA MA650 also sold in white color.
Striking differences have caught us a bit models: allocated only smaller bowls in MA390 and the availability of BTE-mounts in MA750.
Convenience
Co-channel model with deep planting is always felt in the ear canal. Not so intrusive as models with fixing struts, but still noticeable. For most people this is not a problem.
The main function of the bow in such headphones - do not let them fall off and get lost. Aluminum bowl with speakers primagnichivayutsya easily to each other. This means that, not listening to music, headphones can be worn as a necklace, and they will not dangle irritatingly, hanging from the neck.
The weight of our models - from 24 to 41 grams. He does not feel even the "big» MA750. The difference in ergonomics MA750 model - the presence of special hardware-BTE, which help distribute the weight so that the headphones have been more inconspicuous. This solution is not for everybody - we recommend to try the product before buying.
We headphone forms of "bagel" is a common problem - the noise from the bow rubbing against clothing. But not RHA models: here the sound of contact between the rim with a cloth or in the neck does not feel.
The stock length handles with cables to the bowls, you can wear headphones even with voluminous scarves.
Control
On the right end of the arc is the power button and the interface, the charge indicator and a socket for charging. To connect headphones to your phone or other Bluetooth-source, it is necessary to hold the power button for about five seconds. After the first pairing the headphones will connect to the device automatically.
Each model has a three-button remote on the cable at the right earphone. On it is located and the microphone hole. Use the Play / Pause button to accept an incoming call or a voice call assistant. Bow MA650 and MA750 models vibrate when calling.
Rubberized buttons on the remote are given a clear click, but have fairly tight turn. Therefore even click on them and not superpriyatno, but accidental clicks will not be exact.
MA650 and MA750 support conjugation via NFC. With him they are connected to the Android-smartphone with the appropriate chip faster.
Sound
RHA MA Wireless model series - in-ear monitor with excellent sound insulation. Such devices have both advantages and disadvantages: they are convenient to listen to podcasts in the average volume in the subway, but you can not pay attention to the sound of a passing car. Particularly well soundproofed cope foam nozzle. Before putting on headphones, ear pads can mash his fingers straightened foam in the ear canal, providing a perfect fit.
In good headphones with sound objective there is a problem: they require high-quality music. Songs with bit rates of 96 kbit / s in them sound bad, but even worse they perceived compositions unfortunate mix.
With a phone conversation headphone cope well: clearly microphone catches sound even in noisy environments. The interlocutor will hear your speech, and you - his words. And all this thanks to the same excellent passive noise isolation.
In our models have different dynamics and differences in their sound too. Therefore, we consider each of them separately. Headphones were tested with foam ear pads in the most neaudiofilskih circumstances: the sound source made iPhone XS, songs selected from libraries strimingovyh services Apple Music and "Yandex. Music »(MP3 format with bitrates 256 and 320 kbit / s).
RHA MA390 Wireless
Noticeable sag in the middle frequency range, which is confirmed by the frequency response graph of the producer. This little spoils mix with expressive listening rock music: the sound seems to be too assertive and sharp, is not profitable to emphasize the guitar or can, for example, a snare drum.
But in high quality mixed by pop music, house or hip-hop headphones proved to be great. Here and massive voluminous bass, and almost no bulges in the midrange and top do not beat on the ears and are not mixed in the porridge. In the mix enough air - the sound is tight, but not stuffy. As well as on the more expensive headphones series, there is a great space and tools plans.
Now, after comparing all the headphones I want to call MA390 deaf - but it is only relatively more expensive models from this series. MA390 expected behind the MA650 and MA750: here and drivers with smaller reserve volume, and frequency response graph is not as smooth. But this model is not a sound called bad, or even average. He's a great, but only when listening to certain musical styles.

AFC MA650 schedule released a little hump in the upper mid - about these frequencies are responsible for voice and string instruments. Headphones with a frequency response curve graph is often positioned as a city or spoken - perhaps this is one of the most comfortable kinds of imbalance, in which you can be happy to listen to music. Looking ahead, I will say that this model I liked more than others. Most likely due to the usual balance of frequencies. Or due to the fact that I like the classic shape of the headphones without the snap-BTE.

These headphones have got the most powerful drivers and the smoothest frequency response graph. The difference in the sound of the previous model is small. Dips in the upper frequencies do not spoil mix: sag indicated on the graph, generally not very noticeable. The same purity, the same air and, in the case of this model, the absence of objective reasons for something to find fault.

autonomy
RHA MA390 work 8 hours without recharging, MA650 and MA750 - 4 hours. I have a few days use headphones alternately - for half of the week it was not possible to defuse any one model. Judging by the other reviews on the internet, the data from the manufacturer close to the truth.

The choice of in-ear monitor is often the problem: not only affect the listener's preferences in sound, but also his habit, size and shape of his ear canals. Then RHA are doing everything they can, providing a set of ear pads in different sizes, including foam, which adapt to the anatomy of each ear.
All the headphones are in your price range, but this does not mean that the more expensive model is better than the one that is cheaper. They are just different. MA390 perfectly manifest themselves in the music with lots of bass, MA650 become universal headphones for those who love the most different genres and MA750 may appeal to audiophiles who want a device, as fully as possible all the specter frequency palette.
RHA MA Wireless model series are the amateur class, but have the potential audiophile. And if you've always used regular headphones from smart phone boxes, these models are you most likely will be pleasantly surprised. In addition, because of the sensitivity to the quality of the outgoing signal from the headphones RHA makes sense to use them in conjunction with Hi-Fi-audio player.
