This sony is light and comfortable, stylish in design, with slim, silver ear-cups and a black head-band. The headband seems a little flimsy. Speaker cups are small, but still comfortable. Good length of cable, 2m or so and they have full-size and miniature jack plugs connections. They sound good and cope well with the bass and when the volume is turned up. Sometimes the music is not about how loud it can be, but how subtle. These have no trouble picking up the tiniest little cheep with good clarity. The padding on the cups seems to blank out any background noise quite effectively too. I''ve had these for a couple of years now and they seem robust enough and even the cable - usually the first thing to break in my experience - hasn''t given me any trouble. In conclusion, I''m satisfied with the performance of these headphones. I''m sure there are far better sets out there, but these sound fine and are comfortable to wear.
