Beware the value...
While, a decent price, it quickly become evident upon use, the headphones are not of the greatest caliber. The sound is not the best. And with my ears, the buds do not stay in my ear very well. The cord is a bit short and stiff. I was not happy with the Sony design in this instance. Typically I like their designs.

Very good headphones.
I've bought a few different set of headphones lately for different purposes... one set to keep in the laptop bag, one for listening to MP3 from my phone via bluetooth, a set for my computers at home and at work. Nothing too serious, but I have been shopping for what i consider to be the best around this price range.

I bought these thinking that perhaps these, being quasi-in-canal as they are, might offer better bass response than the
Sony MDR-E828LP (and other VERY similar models made by Sony) that I've owned in the past. While the sound is VERY comparable, I think the
MDR-E828LP's actually have a little more bass and a little more volume.

I like both, but the
Sony MDR-E828LP also tend to fit in my ear a little more securely and comfortably.

Superior earbuds
These earbuds are absolutely fantastic. I bought them to replace my original iPod earbuds. The Sony set fits slightly better, having a smaller rounded "bud" with a small rectangle on each. When worn properly, with the little rectangle pointed toward the back of your head, these fit nicely into just about any size ear.

As for the sound, it is robust. The highs are nice and clean, the midranges wonderful, and the lows come through very well. Considering these are fairly inexpensive, they are superior in performance.

I would buy these again.

The only con I can see is the wires to each earbud seem to twist constantly and have to be periodically "spun" in the opposite direction of the tangle to be untangled. Over time I suppose this might cause the product to fail, although I've had them for over half a year with no issues.

Great sound for the price.
Great sound. I've tried a lot of different pairs of headphones and like the sound you get from these better than anything else in the price range. They do fit differently in your ears than other headphones but you get used to it pretty quickly.

I wish I didn't get them
I don't know, I guess it depends on your ears. I always liked and trusted Sony. I will like and trust Sony in future, but these simply weren't made for my ears. It hurts just trying to put them in. And the sound isn't that great (if you think this sound is the best, you simply don't know what good quality sound is), quite average. But if they fit you ears, I guess it's not a bad deal for the price.
