Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

These Sony headphones are lightweight and comfortable and provide excellent sound quality. The MDR-301LP stereo headphones have a self-adjusting overhead headband which allows an individualized fit. The angle-adjusting housing which pivots the earcups allows for further comfort-setting opportunities. 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 plug is gold-plated giving the headphones the best possible connection; this plug also helps resist corrosion and supports the headphones' high conductivity and low noise. 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 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 Good enough, December 13, 2005

By	Michelle Burgess "fellcloud" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The sound quality is very good, but they are very large and bulky. Included in the package is a cap for the plug so that it doesn't get damaged, which is nice. Basically they are exactly what I wanted, except they slip down my petit head. Not very much adjusting room.

4.0 out of 5 stars Headphones that will last!, January 15, 2005

By	Tigre (Michigan) - See all my reviews

I bought mine back in 98' and they still work. You don't hear that annoying popping sound of the plastic when you have your music up loud, they're light weight so your neck/ shoulders won't be sore at the end of the day, and if you have superbass on your cd player or cassette player these headphones have no problem delivering that beautiful bass :) Also for those who hate having headphones where the cord gets hard, then starts to curl, which in turn is frustrating you cause you have these loops you can't get rid of... well you don't have to worry about that struggle with these headphones :) I'm still loop free today :D

Now I'm sure your wondering why did I give it a 4 if I love it so much... well it is now 05' and the ear foam is gone so right now my ears are in pain if I wear them for a long time :( but it still works which is a surprise to me cause I can go through some headphones.

I have a pair of MDRV150 headphones plus these.I think the 150 ones are the best because theyre not too loud not too soft.Just a great classic sound at a wonderful price.
