5.0 out of 5 stars The King?, April 12, 2004
This review is from: Sony MDR-R10 Home Style Headphones (Electronics)
These headphones won't get you the ladies like the posts above claim but paired with the correct amplifier (they like tube amps) these babies make pure music. Yes, they are expensive, but they are the best at what they do: immerse you in music with a spacious sound that is very true to life. For alternatives look to the Stax Omega II electrostatic earspeaker system. For complete reviews and recommended amplifiers for the R10 search http://www.Head-Fi.org.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Explanation......, November 7, 2003
This review is from: Sony MDR-R10 Home Style Headphones (Electronics)
You see, these are magic headphones. When placed over your ears, they will instantly whisk you away to Happyland, where the streets are paved with gold, money falls from the sky, and sugar-plum fairies grant your every wish.

These mystical headphones also enable you to run faster than a speeding bullet, and leap tall buildings in a single bound.

All this for just under $4,000. What are you waiting for !!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Audio nirvana, November 22, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Sony MDR-R10 Home Style Headphones (Electronics)
I recently had a chance to compare these head-to-head against some of the best dynamic headphones available (from Sennheiser and Grado). To my ears these sounded *substantially* better. The detail and realism was really wonderful. Of course they cost nearly times as much as most other audiophile headphones, but if you want to spend that kind of money on a pair of headphones, these would be the ones.
