Great Value, Good Sound..., March 24, 2004
This review is from: Sony MDR-101LP Overhead Headphones with 30 mm Drive Unit (Electronics)
Sony makes some of the best headphones. I paid a bit more for these 3 years ago, they last a long time. The foam pads fell off after two years of regular use, but I had spares from a old pair. These 'phones are made to last and unlike some of those other funky headphones they are comfortable to wear, I wear them for hours at my PC while writing papers/ doing hw. Highly recommended, even for those who like good sound. These deliver rich base, and are good for mp3 listening as well as dvd watching. In fact, for the price I just might buy a spare. A plus side with this is if you are hard on stuff or simply like to carry headphones in your backpack you don't have to worry about them--the price is so low. I hope this helps. What are you waiting for? Buy some headphones. These headphones fit into anyone's budget.

These phones are not too bad. They deliver good treble effects as well as decent bass. A prety good buy for the $$$.

Bang For Your Buck!, February 14, 2005
This review is from: Sony MDR-101LP Overhead Headphones with 30 mm Drive Unit (Electronics)
Well, I needed some new headphones. I tried the UR5 from Koss. The sound quality was alright, but they could BARELY be heard. I found these, thinking Sony, would make headphones with better and louder sound. I was right.
The good news is that the sound quality is excellent. Sony headphones always seem to have more punch than other Koss, RCA, Panasonic, and other brands of headphones. The bass and treble are clear, and bass is pretty deep as other $6 headphones I've tried. I would have enjoyed the headphones that came with my player (SLSV570), but they were uncomfortable, and I mean VERY. These are pretty comfortable and lightweight, as the box explains.
The bad news is the overall durability of these headphones, which is a big minus. I've been though two of these, yet the third ones haven't broken yet at all (keeping my fingers crossed).
The price is very reasonable and very cheap, and I wouldn't have a problem buying another pair, because of their cheapness.
Overall, these headphones add a punch to your music, and the volume is loud for those quiet CD players.
