Panasonic RP-HTX7 model names, AE?

[admin_exported]

Hi

I'm looking at buying a pair of RP-HTX7 but seem to be coming up with two different models numbers for seemingly the same item. Basically RP-HTX7AE comes up and is considerably cheaper, does anyone know id there is a difference or what the AE means? There is also a -x on the end, but I think that is the colour.

Thanks

Ian

They would appear to be one and the same thing, although online prices do seem to vary considerably from £30-£50 depending on the retailer. The X, R, G suffix merely indicates the different colours available.

i think it determines if they are the home version (extension cable in the box) or street versions (only got a 1.2m cable). I wasn't aware there was a difference until I ordered a pair online and got the one without the extension cable. Cracking pair of cans by the way, excellent sound IMO.
