Amazon.com Product Description:
Many noise-reducing headphones feature large, over-the-head or behind-the- neck headbands, making them rather bulky to use while traveling or working out. Not so the Sony MDR-EX71SLA Fontopia headphones, whose ultra-light, in-the-ear design sounds great while minimizing distracting ambient noise. The closed-type construction makes the headphones a perfect fit for airline, train, or bus travel, or while dancing or skating to your own tunes. The phones owe their audio performance to the extra- small 9 mm drivers and neodymium magnets fitted inside each earpiece. The drives and magnets combine to generate high-intensity sound, with a deeper-than-expected bass response (as low as 6 Hz) and refreshingly crisp mid- and high-range tones (all the way up to 23 kHz). Listeners will also dig the three sizes of earbuds that come with the headphones, ensuring that users find the right match for their individual ear shapes while enjoying long-lasting comfort. And thanks to the dual cord lengths–1.65 feet (original) and a 2.3-foot extension–the phones are great for both iPods and MP3 players on armbands or belt clips.

Other details include an oxygen-free copper cord that reduces noise and improves signal transfer, a gold-plated mini-plug that resists corrosion, a stylish neck chain cord, and a streamlined carrying case that slips easily into a shirt pocket. The 100 mW phones, whose white color matches iPods perfectly, is backed by a one-year warranty on parts and a 90-day warranty on labor.

THESE HEADPHONES ARE LEET, BEASTLY, AND EPIC ALL AT THE SAME TIME. by Linna Lippke
(I am one of those people you could consider an Audiophile by the way)The title says it all. they produce most exellent, i mean completely awesome bass and highs. i might need to adjust the trebble a little up, but this is only because i created a personal eq for the iPod headphones with extra bass so it was noticeable. these headphones produce sound much like my stereo system which is incredible. the speakers inside are small but powerfull once you put them in your ears, and there are actually 2 carrying cases, one that is large and made to carry the whole set minus the multi-sized buds that come along with it and the extension cord (which is basically required because the original cord is so short), and a smaller case just made for holding the buds, or the cord if you want it shortened.

For those of you who are looking for a set of headphones that are symmetrical in cord leingth, these are in fact aesymmetrical, but this can be altered. all you need is some tape to fix this problem (this will work with any set of aesymmetrical headphones by the way)

1.take the headphones out of the packagem and put them in your ears (listening to music if you like)

2.acquire a small strip of tape

3.balance the headphones taking the longer end and pulling it down the main cord untill the sides are balanced on your face.

they will still be out of balance a little, but they don’t come out of your ears very easilly anyway so… whatever.

I hope this review was helpfull and i would also like to add that these are worth more than the price, in fact i bet these could run for over $100 if sony realized the quality of this product.

awesome headphones by Shirley
I purchased these for use under my motorcycle helmet and they do the trick. The different sized ear bud pieces make it easy to find the perfect fit for the noise level you want (or don’t). Definitely recommend these.

Great Earphones up to the point it starts falling apart by R. Yosofov
I’ve had 2 pairs of these headphones! The first one lasted 9 months before it collapsed. The second one lasted 4 months before the right side stopped working. Also the right earphone is much longer than the left earphone, so sometimes its not comfortable.

In my opinion, there are better earphones for the same price. Now Im searching a different set. Hope to have more luck with my new set.

keep the cat away and the product will play by SAGA
Good Sound, great fit (3 sizes), comfortable, works will in iPod, MP3 and so on. Buy it. (case is cheezy and not really usable)
