Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Product Description:
Audiophiles who demand great sound quality but need something smaller than over-the-ear DJ headphones will appreciate the Sony MDR-EX81LP Bud-Style Stereo Earphones. With nine millimeter diameter driver units and PET (generic mylar) diaphragms, your music will sound loud, clear and rich. The MDR-EX81LP driver units reproduce surprisingly-clear recorded sounds at a wide frequency range (5-23,000 Hz). These substantial, compact earphones also feature neodymium magnets for greater power handling and higher frequencies. Five times more powerful than standard earphone ferrite magnets of the same size, the neodymium magnets mean that the Sony MDR-EX81LP Bud-Style Stereo Earphones maximize energy, while keeping size to a minimum. With these advanced technological features, the MDR-EX81LP provides great sound in a tiny package.

Sony MDR-EX81LP Bud-Style Stereo Earphones earbud design was built for the audiophile on the go. Made of Elastomer, the hanger fits around your lobes for a snug fit. Sony has not scrimped on comfort, designing the earbuds with soft silicone for a stable and comfortable fit within your ears. Also, Sony has used a lightweight, aluminum shaft throughout the earphone for even more stability. These features allow you to listen to clear, robust sound while you’re at the gym, the ballpark, or any time you’re on the move.

Customer Reviews

Excellent by Hollman Garcia Valladares
I bought these earphones to ride my HD bike and I am delighted with the sound and how confortable they fit.

Excellent value.

Total Disappointment! by Phillip H. Ruffner
I am a loyal Sony products owner and generally find their products to be superb. I bought the subject earphones specifically to use when working out with the assumption of typical satisfaction with the product. I was thoroughly disappointed. Perhaps if I were Dr Spock these things would fit my ears, but I am not, and they don’t. The earpiece is flimsy and not adjustable, as a result the top is 3/8 of an inch over the top of my ear, making the device useless. My first reaction was to toss them in the wastebasket, but then decided to leave them in the cafeteria at my work. Perhaps Spock will beam by, see them there and be able to use them.

not a fan by K. MacLeod
Like some of the other reviewers mentioned, these are not good for people with smaller ears. The hanger that goes around the back of the ear is useless for me. I only wear these when walking to work, and I’m constantly having to shove them back in my ears. It’s very annoying. Having said that, the sound quality and noise isolation are pretty good (the only reason they get 2 instead of 1 star). So if you’re not using these while moving, they’re fine. Hopefully there are better options though. I will be buying another pair for my commute.

This bud’s not for me. by Sparky
The sound quality of these earphones is decent, but not top quality – they are lacking bass ranges. Unfortunately, the earpieces are one size only and they were too large to fit my ears, so they do not make for a good exercise/running companion. Overall: disappointing.
