Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the superb sound quality, deep bass, and comfortable fit of these earbud headphones. Many appreciate their lightweight design and reasonable price. A common suggestion is the addition of volume control on the cord. The tangle-free cord is also a frequently praised feature.

    Great earbuds

    Posted .

    I have been researching earbuds for about 3 weeks now. Ugh! No more! I just retired and want a pair for yard work around the house and for taking walks. What I found with earbuds is that no one wants to tell you Specs. They want me to buy them because they are popular, or the cool pair to have, or have features that I do not care about. But how do they sound? You can usually get a sense of how they will perform by the Specs. So why don't these companies provide basic performance numbers? Do they have something to hide? The numbers should be right on the box or the first thing they mention on a web site. In my experience over the last 40 years or so I have found Sony to be a quality reliable product at a price point that I can afford. And the the Specs on these earbuds are outstanding! First they have 12mm drivers! Huge! After digging deep I was able to find the Specs on several earbuds (why did I have to work so hard to get the Specs!) and most, even the expensive ones, have drivers between 6 to 9mm. The sensitivity rating is a huge 110dB which is extremely high and unique. The frequency response is 4Hz - 24,000Hz. Just massive! Most headphones much less earbuds of any quality at all will be 10Hz - 22,000Hz at best. And what do all these numbers at up to? A bass heavy sound with crisp clear highs and a solid mid-range. What I found from professional reviewers is they like to give earbuds that are bass heavy a hard time. They like to talk about how a good earbud should have good even bass but not over done. If I want that I will buy some reference monitors. I don't think the bass on these earbuds are over done at all all. I am a musician and an avid lifelong fan of music. But I'm not a snob about it. I have built basic home studios and recorded my own stuff and that is the place to have reference monitors with a flat response so that I am able to hear exactly what I am recording. In that environment I don't want a "colored" sound that isn't a true representation of the track I recorded. But when I go to mix down the recording I just made I am going to lean on the bass. The E.Q. with have the typical smile shape when I'm done. It's been my experience that people like to hear it that way. It sounds richer, fuller. But how many earbuds can you test, not as many as the professional reviewers. So on their advice I went out and got the Jaybird X2s. $140. I never got to hear them! Trying to get them to fit was so onerous I gave up! I mean come on, you should not have to try that hard just to get a good fit! I took them back. Then I purchased some Bose earbuds. $100. They were easier to fit than the Jaybirds but I was not impressed with the sound. So back to the store they went. Then I saw these on sale at Best Buy this morning for $29 and thought 3 things. They were only $30 so why not give them a try. The Specs on them were just outstanding so that was a good sign. And they were made by Sony which I have come to know and trust through the years. Well they did not disappoint.. They fit well right out of the box, And the sound was awesome. Big full bass without compromising the other frequencies. They look good. They fit well. They sound good. What else can I ask for? Ok they are not wireless like I was hoping for but that's ok.(Around the house I will use my Harman-Kardon blue tooth speaker that I love!) The Bose had a great storage case but at what cost? After several weeks and much research I have found my earbuds. I was willing to spend up to $150 but only had to spend $30. Don't hesitate to get them. I think you will be glad you did.
