    I have been looking at these headphones "Marley Destiny Collection TTR TrenchTown Rock Active Noise Isolating Over Ear Headphones with Mic and One Button Controller EM-DH001-IO2"

    But the sellers like Amazon says it`s response is 20Hz-20kHz , when the Marley Website says 12Hz - 23kHz

    Are their more than one version of these headphones, see link below towards the bottom of the page.

    Thanks

    I guess these are the new "beats."

    LOL, "earth friendly materials" made from recyclable aluminum and.... leather. That makes sense.

    The look a little nicer than beats... but let it be said. Overpriced BS. Just an FYI.

    On frequency response, it does matter, but we can't really hear below 40hz or above 20khz.

    The frequency range is either an error or simply an advertising gimmick. Like 20/20 vision, 20hz-20khz represent perfect hearing and the human sound range. Any sound above or below that is inaudible so it's pretty meaningless.
