In this price range I was expecting these to perform like a set of Beats by Dre Solo HD headphones. These Sonys definitely delivered crisp mid-range output that the Dre's could not touch. Don't get me wrong, the Dre product, by itself, made for interesting listening of a group of six singers delivering a fairly wide range of pitch and intonation, but the Dre Solo HD didn't make the grade for separating the two men singing in the lower range (bass and baritone). The Dre Solos seemed to make their male voices boom and smother the output from the ladies (who all sounded almost the same on the Dre product, which was odd, because with a naked ear the richness we heard outside the booth was not duplicated by the Dre Solo HD when listening to the recorded file). We thought it was a problem with our recording process. Enter this little set of Sony headphones. A tiny bit weighty, but just a little...and much better in mid-range and higher without giving up bass performance. A fine reproduction of the higher pitch singing performances, with a clarity to enable differentiating separate performers to decide stage placement. We could tell that the two men were on separate ends of the stage ensemble. Excellent! The recorded file was not the problem after all! This displayed an excellent sound rendition by the Sony MDR X05 heaphones that the Dre Solo HD's simply could not duplicate. Yes, we are impressed! We purchased five more of these little gems.Read full review

I have been using headphones for more years than I choose to say. Sony has always made a quality built headphone. These so far are no exception. The sound quality is "good" but not the best. Honestly I am a fan of Sony's durability rather than the sound quality. Don't get me wrong, it's good sound, but if you are looking for the best sound quality you can find. I would look elsewhere.

Used to own an older MDR model, these new ones work just as great! Great bass, quality construction

Excellent sound and fairly comfortable (you will get through a movie comfortably). They are not lightweight but are not excessively heavy, you will notice the weight after a many hours of wear. These are my 2nd pair, so I do like them.
