Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

These Sony headphones are lightweight, economical, and comfortable. The MDR-201LP stereo headphones have an adjustable, overhead headband which allow you to fit them perfectly to your head's shape. The open-air design removes undesirable resonance by allowing outside air to pass through the headphones; the result is a better sounding headphone. The thirty millimeter drivers deliver deep bass. The Sony Acoustic Turbo circuit is included for high efficiency; it gets high sonic output from your portable stereo, and extends bass response. Put together, these two features help counter the tendency of headphones to sound cheap and bass-low. With Sony's UniMatch plug, it is possible to connect these headphones to both mini or full size headphone jacks. The MDR-201LP's cord is single-sided which minimizes tangles. The long, 1.5 meters (4.9 feet) Y-style cord allows for ample movement and separation from the sound source.

4.0 out of 5 stars About to order my third pair, January 13, 2004

By	James P. Wisdom (PA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I'm currently on my second pair of MDR-201 headphones and will be ordering another pair soon. For the low price that these go for, you get a sturdy set of headphones that are comfortable and sound good. I find they last 2+ years with heavy office use. I've tried other budget headphones from other companies (Yamaha, Aiwa) but in most cases they fell apart almost immediately. Also, for those of you out there who've been blessed with a humongous noggin like I have, these are the headphones for you - they fit even my 7 5/8 size head comfortably. The 1-sided cord is also great for avoiding tangles when using the phone. They're well-designed and a great value.

5.0 out of 5 stars TURN YOUR PORTABLE INTO A HI-FI, October 6, 2003

By A Customer

I've gone through about half-a-dozen pair of these same 'phones for the last 4 years; I wouldn't think of using any other set while on the move! They're the surest way to wring every last little drop of fidelity from any walkabout stereo, pricey or cheap. I've tried it on an inexpensive Awai, and one of Panasonic's expensive "Shock-Wave" cassette players. These 'phones make either sound terrific.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's alright, September 29, 2005

By	Rarely write reviewss - See all my reviews

maybe for this cheap price range this pair is one of the best you can get. However, since it is a single cord.. sometimes the right side stops delivering sounds.. But all u have to do is to replug it into your computer.. anyway.. not a bad deal.
