Sony MDR-EX70LP Consumer Headphones

Pros: Great sound. Good isolation. Comfortable.
Cons: Need daily cleaning. Weird when walking around.

These belong to a class of earphones that nest deep in your ears. The only other earphones I know that do this are made by a company called Etymotic. The advantage of this is that it isolates the sound from the noise all around you. The disadvantage is...

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 ...

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). ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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...

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 ...

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...

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...

Pros: Phenomenal sound.
Cons: The thought of sharing them is pretty disgusting.

I never thought that there was much of a difference in earbud headphones until a friend pointed out that mine sucked. He pointed out that bigger headphones would sound better (you know the kind everyone was wearing in the "We are the World" video), but I...

Pros: Earth shattering bass response in a pea sized package
Cons: not for sharing!

As every other review has said, the bass response of these earbuds is simply amazing. You will NOT find a pair of headphones, at this price range, that sound like these.

These headphones have incredible bass. You know how there's...

Pros: Great sound, Great Isolation, Great comfort.
Cons: No great carrying case. Wires are a little flimsy.

Ok, I'm a music engineer at University of Miami and sound is important, to say the least, here. I decided, after stepping on my last ear-buds, that I would buy some new ones. I didn't want to get ear phones that were just used for listening to music, I...

Pros: Compact, Light, Good Sound Quality for Price. Fits Ear Nicely
Cons: Little Midrange Capability

I was looking for a nice pair of earbud headphones for the gym and around campus use, after buying and trying a half dozen pair I settled on the MDR-EX70LP.
They were the only pair that fit all my needs, with good overall sound quality, great bass...

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 ...
