good quality for this price, but not for sports

I was looking for a pair of headphone for jogging. It's not very comfortable, and keeps coming off from my ears. Really annoying. However, if you are not using them for sports, the quality is fairly good for this price.

Comfortable, stylish and great-sounding

I don't know how anyone could be negative about these headphones - they seem spot on and innovative to me. I love that they look a bit different - they are hardly ever uncomfortable (the secret's holding the clip open while you put it on each ear, then...

Compare these with the inner ear headphones and they're amazing. I've tried the standard Sony Fontopia ear buds that ship with the Net MD's, wasn't impressed with the bass-midrange on them at all, so then tried the much raved about mdr-ex71slb's, and...

Response to previous reviews

I just bought a Sony CD Walkman D-NE715 and was looking to buy these headphones to go with it. The specification, price and style are great and make them an ideal replacement for the cheap ones supplied with the player. However, other reviews here...

Bassy, yet flimsy

I must say I really don't like it when my headphones break or refuse to work. I always dread getting a new pair, and finding them to be everything I don't want from them - bad size, small cable, long cable, no bass etc, so when I got these I was not...
