Digital camera reviews of Sony MDR-110LP Open-air Stereo Headphones

Digital camera Review: Poor sound quality
Summary: 2 Stars

This headset doesn't have very good sound quality. Sound was tinny on several tracks of Enya CD I was listening to. I didn't send back, because of cost of mailing.

Digital camera Review: Quite satisfactory - full bass - good clarity
Summary: 5 Stars

Back in the 1980's I purchased an Awia portable stereo cassette player (walkman) based on it's superior sound (at least compared to others that were offered at the time). I was still using the headset that came with that stereo until a couple days ago when the left side quit. I was very satisfied with the sound as I thought it was well balanced and natural. For a replacement I wanted something that sounded similar to what I was used to hearing. Having been out of the market for 20 years, I had no idea what the new headsets were like. I tried an in the canal type headset and was disappointed in the lack of bass response (comapred to what I was used to). So I decided to try a headphone that was more like the Awia with the open speakers. Sony kept appearing as a highly regarded brand. I wasn't looking for audiophile quality - I probably can't hear that well any more anyway - I just wanted good and cheap. This Sony headset should fit the bill for me. It is a little fuller in the bass than I am used to, but the clarity is considerably better. I described my old Awia headset as being balanced and natural - like a concert hall - and not in need of an equalizer. In comparison I think I would describe this Sony headphone as full and clear, like a studio - more like listening through an enclosed headphone than an open headphone. It's not quite like my old headphones, but quite satisfactory. I think if you like a full bass response you will like this headphone set.

I don't feel as though these are going to fall off my head - actually they are quite tight and I am going to see if I can relax the headband a bit.

Digital camera Review: Sit close to your Computer
Summary: 3 Stars

Headphones work great, comfortable, good sound quality, but wish the phone leads just came out of one side, another drawback, depending on whether you're are right on top of your PC or not, the overall cord length is too short, only 40" long. There are better choices out there. I have similarly priced headphones that have a 98" cord, and it comes out of only one side of the phones. I would recommend shopping around if this cord length may be an issue for you. Extension leads may be purchased, but cost almost as much as the headphones themselves! Luckily I had an old extension lead. Sorry SONY. A die hard SONY fan nevertheless.

Digital camera Review: Sony Bargain Headphones
Summary: 2 Stars

I understand the concept of "you get what you pay for," and I also thought that the Sony brand stood for at least a reasonable expectation of quality no matter the price. So I was very disappointed to discover that these $9.99 headphones are inferior to the ones that came with the Magnavox JogProof CD player that I purchased from Kragen Auto Parts for $15.99.




Digital camera Review: Sony Headphones
Summary: 4 Stars

This product uses larger than normal drivers which give better sound quality than most other inexpensive headphones. Good product. Good buy.
