I must have freakishly-shaped ears as I cannot get along with any others...the flat type just fall out of my left ear...don't ask why. I think I have handsome, perfectly formed ears (small, but beautifully formed...I DID play second row in the school rugby team for 9 years...BUT I DIGRESS!) but for some reason these are the only set I've ever used that will stay in...even when walking or running.
I've had the same pair for 9 years now! Don't worry-I do clean them, which, incidentally, is very easy to do.
They are a nice smooth shape which feels unnoticable in the ear.
If you ever lose sound in an ear you might try pulling off the cover and ... Read More:

Have been keeping an eye on these earphones for quite a while and finally bought them since the earphones coming with my iPod really tortured my ears and I couldn't endure any more. As long as I plugged these Sony earbuds, they gave the music that I've been listening a new style! Matching the price and the extension cable gives flexibility. The only thing is that the bass quality is a bit of a shame, could be better. But I accept this since they are only EARBUDS, what else could be demanded?

I picked these up when perusing earphones at John Lewis. They're a bit more expensive there, but I needed some quickly.
The sound is quite clean and there is little in the way of distortion. The ranges are covered quite well although the bass isn't as refined as I'd like (I'm a bassist).
In terms of hardware design, these aren't the flashiest and the plastic may look cheap. Don't let that fool you since these are quite hardy warriors and have endured close to 8-10 hours of usage on a daily basis. Despite having no rubber parts, the material has a latent softness to it that keep them comfortable despite extended use.
The reason I'm knocking a star off is because my first pair started losing sound in the left piece near ... Read More:

12 pounds is too much for these headphones. after a few weeks of use the sound started to interrupt. there is absolutely no insulation from environmental noise.

Sony have made these with longevity and sound quality in mind, as i have had mine for a year and they are still going strong. But they are starting to really get on my nerves. The first flaw is the length, on their own they are too short, unless you are about 5 and have an incredibly small torso, or if you don't mind holding your mp3 player everywhere you go, looking like a proud schmuck. So Sony added an extension cable to it, making it unbearably long. Ahh but what's wrong with long wires? These wires coil and knot with great ease, making a wire penis hang out of your pocket, don't act like you don't understand. So yeah, small torso or don't mind wire nobs? go for it.

EXCELLENT CANS. SPOT ON. CANT BELIEVE THE PRICE. WOULD HAVE PAYED 2 THE PRICE. ANYWAY STOP GABBLIN ON I'M AWAY OUT WITH THE DOG AND MY MUSIC. AS USUAL EXCELLENT SERVICE FROM AMAZON.TA VERY MUCH.
Considering how much could be spent on a pair of headphones, these are amazingly cheap. And, for that reason, are very good value.
The base is enhanced a lot. Although it is a heavy, slightly muffled sound. Which is ok, for listening to early rock n roll sixties recordings, which I like. Although fairly limited, the high and mid ranges are evident.To a certain extent only. So if you are not reasonably fussed about having too perfect overall sound quality, these are very good value. They seem to be solidly built,play loud and for certain types of music, they are ideal.
Summing up. If I were to go back in time,to be given a choice, whether to buy these phones or not, I would once again, most certainly do so. ... Read More:

I am in the process of returning these as, although they are good they have a big drawback.
- Noise isolation swtiched off -
The headphones have good sound quality. The plastic covers on the end of the earphone can be swapped to fit different ears as needed but you only get 1 set of each size so don't loose them. Sound isolation is ok, they do let in about 2/3's of external sound (remember, I have left the switch off so far).
- Noise isolation switched on, after fitting AAA battery I had to provide -
WOW, it makes a drastic difference to external sounds. There is one massive drawback that now happens though in that there is a huge ammount of background hiss. Its like sitting next to escaping steam and trying to listen to ... Read More:

I work in Bermuda Triangle. I seriously mean it. The position that attracks most noise at the office. Four loud colleges surround me, a bit far a group of happy inconsiderate junior lot that said they need to talk all the time for high collaboration, next to the toilet, main door, and kitchen. Oh, yeah, just several walk from a meeting room.
Worse yet, my job requires my brain to think.
Just a standard headphone with full volume of loudest Bon Jovi music didn't help... Toughest ear-muff didn't help either. They just either hurt my ear or brought me headache. I have a very sensitive ear, used to be in choir and like music a lot. It was just miserable...
Two days ago, with excellent service from Amazon, I received this. Putting a baterry, even ... Read More:
