Rating: Summary: I love this thing..! Review: Bought this a few days back, and absolutely love it. The best thing about it is its weight; its so light, I often forget if its still on! A bit pricey, but then what the heck, a sony is never expected to be for the common money-minded man (well, I confess I've a weakness for gizmos!)Yup, the bass is not as rich as one would expect, but its not bad either. What I mean is, I did not regret it for anything. A good buy. Wish it was a bit cheaper, though! It makes up in its looks for all it lacks in the bass. So, no regrets.
Rating: Summary: Great for joggers and runners ! Review: Great for joggers and runners! I purchased an mp3 player for distance running (most players come ill-equipped on the headphones), and I complemented the purchase with the Sony S2 Headphones. For serious workouts and outdoor activity: the sound is good, ears get fresh air, stable/ comfortable fit. I also recommend the Philips Rush SA230 mp3 player for runners - best durable armband design out there (only available in-store at Target). Both went for a 13-mile run last week!
Rating: Summary: Perfect! Review: I bought these for $20, (good price for these), and dont regret it at all. They are light and stay on your head very well. I was on a trampoline doning flips and they stood on perfectly. They are also very comfortable. They stay in play and dont move in your ear so the plastic wont rubb against your ear. They sound great too. I had sony MDR-EX51LP's (more expensive) and i like these alot better. Base doesn't overtake the sound,vocals sound perfect,and background is great too! So for 20 bucks, these are the best you will get!!
Rating: Summary: Comfortable, with fantastic bass! Review: I bought these headphones for my MZ-R55 mini-disc player. What a great buy! They fit in anything when folded. The practicality of these things is excellent. I don't think SONY leaves out anything when they come to designing their products. They are even good to have when you are putting your mini-disc player away. You just pop them into the box or carrying pouch, all tucked away out of sight. This helps when you don't want to always be looking for them everywhere around the room or house. The sound in these little things is amazing. Best level of bass I ever had for replacement headphones of this kind. Mind you, my original pair are fine, but you never know when you will need an extra pair. One last thing. You'll agree, with the constand folding of these headphones, each time you put them on, they cling to your head more than before. It's good when you don't want them falling off your head while listening to a great song. Hope my review helps you.
Rating: Summary: great sound and comfort! Review: I have always preferred the vertical in-the-ear style headphones since they were first introduced in the late 80's. These headphones are very comfortable to wear for several hours at a time. You will barely feel them. That's great, but how do they sound? They have excellent frequency response at 10 - 23,000Hz, and great sensitivity at 108 dB/mW. You will get good bass out of the tiny 16mm drivers. They are also water resistant, so you can wear them while exercising or in the rain. They are designed so the moisture will run down the band and drip off the bottom. I highly recommend these portable (and foldable) headphones.
Rating: Summary: Great exercise headphones but not perfect Review: I have had these headphones for over a year and use them mainly for jogging/running, usually 4x/week and at least 15-20 miles per week. I like the fact that they are water resistant. The sound quality was good for the price but not great (but who needs great while exercising anyway). Comfort is great and these are one of the few in-ear headphones that haven't given me headaches after hours of use.
The only reason I don't rate them 5 stars is the weather finally caught up to them. After running multiples times in rain, humid weather, etc. one side has finally gone bad (left). I can still use them but the sound from the left side is very faint.
I will purchase the same type again but am looking for slightly better sound quality. But who knows, over one year of getting rained and sweated on isn't a bad track record for a pair of $20 headphones.
Rating: Summary: Very good sport phones... Review: I was really surprised by the full and balanced response of these sport headphones. These are a very good alternative to ear buds when working out. Helping with the low end are 16mm drivers using Neodymium magnets. These are way beyond most ear buds and much better than my old Sony sport headphones for bass response. They seem very efficient and are easily driven by my MD player.
These also fold into a small bundle that can be wrapped with the cord. They're water resistant too.
If you are frustrated with buzzy ear buds that come loose as you sweat, try these. Well worth $20.
Rating: Summary: Worth the price Review: It's really cheap, I agree. So, don't expect the quality. It has OK sound for treble but terrible sound for bass. Also, it is embarrasing to see 3 out of 10 people in fitness wearing this earphone. I tend to not carring this one to fitness anymore. If you like the style, the this is a go, but if you want sound, don't buy this.
Rating: Summary: Dumbest looking things ive ever seen! Review: My friend had these on and he has glasses, and he looked like a robot or something stupid. They may be good quality sound but they just look so stupid i thought i should warn you, if you have glasses, you should get better earphones, that have wires.
Rating: Summary: practical but not durable Review: The quality of sound, especially the base, was wonderful. The collapsing headphones were extremely practical and slowed down the wear and tear of them in my backback, at the gym, etc. Nonetheless, after only 5 months, they were broken. This was not because of the collapsible section, but rather because of the rapid fraying of the part of the cord around the jack where the headphones are plugged in to the discman.
