Don't be fooled

by jrlh226 , Oct 07 '07
Pros: They fit well, will be the only Pro I can come up with.
Cons: No Base!!!! and I don't listen to head banger music.
Hello, I read these reviews and bought these ear buds because of the things I read. I bought them at Best Buy for 43.99 and I thought that was a reasonable price point. I am so glad I kept my receipt. The case is just stupid so I wont bother ...

Good idea, but improve the quality

by megwd , Dec 31 '05
Pros: Size, sound, comfort.
Cons: Cheap design that won't last.
I really like the sound these headphones produce. I own a couple MP3 players, and I was going through headphones pretty quickly. Of course, the manufactors' are really cheap, so I was looking for an upgrade. I didn't like my other headphones, so I ...

Isolate yourself from the outside world

by twosheep , Mar 08 '05
Pros: Great for noisy public transit, good quasi-custom fit, relatively low cost
Cons: Rubber buds separate too easily, wires tangle mercilessly, expensive replacement cups, stethoscope effect, early death
I started a new job in Aug of 2003 and found myself commuting via bus for ~90 minutes a day. Boooring! I brought headphones and a radio player with me (can't live w/o my NPR) but found that there was so much ambient bus noise, I couldn't hear a darn ...

Best Boom for the Buck!

by ehwang , Sep 15 '04
Pros: Sound isolation, comfortable, reasonable price
Cons: No real case, asymmetrical design (see review), somewhat fragile cord
I've owned a lot of headphones since I first bought one of the original Sony Walkman players back in the 80's. I even have a pair of the first noise-canceling headphones and they still work. But for the price, nothing sounds quite as good as these little ...

Great While It Lasted

by bubbaburrito , Apr 19 '04
Pros: Great sound--especially bass, comfortable--especially for earbuds
Cons: Slip out of ears occasionally, expensive, things kept falling off/getting lost
I bought this product a little over a year ago. It had its ups and its downs. Problems The main problem with it was the earpieces had a tendency to slip out of my ears no matter which size I used (although the medium ones were by far the best). ...

Good sound, bad case.

by jpluttme , Apr 06 '04
Pros: Small, great sound, comfortable with different sized earbuds, great at blocking out ambient noise.
Cons: Funky cord, worthless case/cord holder, cord is not durable and too thin.
I'm never without my mp3 player and when the cheap headphones that came with the unit went kaput, I wanted to buy something a little better with more dynamic range than the ones that died. I found the Sony headphones at Best Buy for under $40.00 and ...

awesome sound, tiny package

by glennaa11 , Feb 12 '04
Pros: tiny, light, comfortable, excellent sound, nice cord length
Cons: because they are so small and light may not be durable
I just got the EX71's which I assume are the next generation of this line. The 'phones are extraordinarily light and they fit well in my ears. Two sets of the ear fittings of differing sizes are also supplied but the standard ones that are preinstalled ...

decent sounding, easy to carry around, and comfortable.

by waterhead1 , Nov 25 '03
Pros: decent sound, easy portability, comfortable over long periods, fairly inexpensive, great at blocking outside noise.
Cons: lots of other over the ear headphones SOUND better.
i have been through tons of different headphones for portable listening. my favorite has been, and will always be, the koss portapros, but then i bought a tiny mp3 player that's the size of a cigarette lighter, and it defeated the purpose of having this ...

SONY MDR-EX70LP nice, but flawed

by deftdrummer , Oct 15 '03
Pros: good sound, small design, STAYS IN YOUR EARS!
Cons: extension way too long, other cord too short, behind the ear design too much work.
LOOKS: I too own an ipod and wanted to keep the white sleek look of the ipod with my ear buds. Unfortunately i found out that these came in white off ebay (same place i got mine) by a certain seller. Either way, they are small, black and they fit in yo ...

Good Ear Buds

by ndarathi , May 11 '03
Pros: Crystal clear sound,portability
Cons: comfort problems and regular cleaning.
I've owned this product for 2 weeks now and quite frankly speaking I was very skeptical about this product.I was hoping that with such a relatively high price tag this product would live up to expectations.Well,I'm proud to say it did.One cannot imagine...

Yet another positive review. This should tell you something.

by orulz , Apr 20 '03
Pros: Decent sound quality; comfortable; tiny
Cons: Wish the case was better; gets gooey with earwax
I'm a college student. Meaning that I'm way too poor to be an audiophile. True audiophiles are rich (or heavily in debt) elitists, and as much as I'd love to be one I just can't possibly pull it off. Regardless, I am picky about my audio equipment. I...

Sony MDR-EX70LP Ear-bud headphones - wax problem

by steve9876 , Apr 20 '03
Pros: Good sound, comfort, and isolation
Cons: Wax build-up can ruin sound
I love these earphones but Sony has been very difficult and unhelpful - thus making minor problems into major ones. The unit becomes clogged with ear wax. This happens routinely just a few months after the warranty runs out. And yes, my ears are very...

Great performer in small package

by mimoid , Apr 09 '03
Pros: Rich and full sound
Cons: Bass is a bit too aggressive for some music and treble needs a little boost
After a long and painfully drawn-out debate between my appetite for great mobile sound and the size of my wallet, I finally decided that I would give the Sony EX70 a chance to show off together with my brand new S ony ...

Expectations Too High?

by txtxyeha , Feb 03 '03
Pros: Comfortable, Quality Sound
Cons: Doesn't cancel out surrounding (aircraft) noise
I travel via airplane a couple of times a month and wanted my trips home to be quality downtime by watching a DVD. I assumed that since these fit comfortable into my ear canal (and I spent $50) that it would block out some of the cabin noise. Wrong....

Big Sound in a Little Package

by vcustudent , Jan 09 '03
Pros: Big bass sound, great isolation, very small package, comfortable
Cons: Missing a little mid-section, useless case
After a pair of Aiwa headphones I had broke, I began using the packaged headphones that came with my CD player. This lasted all but a day as I refused to listen to my music on the cheap, and ultimately bad sounding headphones. So I began to search the...
