I bought these as a replacement. in my opinion, you cannot get a better set of headphones for the $... IDK if you could beat them for twice as much, either... I think you'd have to spend $80+ to truly get better.
The good: Well worth what I paid for them. Just be sure to look at all sellers, because there's quite a range of prices. Personally, I would not buy used when there's so little difference in price for new.
The not-quite-as-good: I wanted white, and bought these for the model number, thinking they would probably sound the same as my old black MDR-V150s. However, they do not. If you have some EQ adjustment available when you are using these, they should meet your basic listening needs nicely. They certainly sound better than any earbuds I've ever tried to use, and they stay where you put them. Compared to my original black V150s, they are more sensitive, so you get more sound for the same volume setting, but the increase in output seems to be concentrated in the midrange, while the highs are slightly subdued. So, the "fi" in these is noticeably not as high as in my old black set, which I have always felt was outstanding for a small, low-priced set of headphones.
Using these with apps like Windows Media Player or the VLC Media Player, which have a software equalizer included with the player, you can make them sound however you want them to. In that case I'd say they're a good bet for general use headphones. But if your player device or app has no EQ adjustment, and depending on your hearing sensitivity across the spectrum, these might sound a bit hot in the high-midrange and soft in the highs.
I know they're just a low-priced set, but since they carry the same brand and model number as another low-priced Sony set that I thought was fantastic for the price, I thought they were worth a more detailed review. If I could, I would give them 3 1/2 stars.

I particularly enjoy the detailed mid range on these. The bass is there but not overpowering. The high end could maybe be better but honestly for the money there is nothing to complain about here. They hit above their price range for sure. I bought them as budget DJ headphones and am also finding myself taking them out with me for general music listening so this says a lot. I have another set of Sony headphones that go for twice the price and these are honestly better. They get plenty loud too!
Nowdays I use earphones all the time, as they leak less sound and are more portable, but I still use these headphones in my piano. They have the best sound quality in my piano compared to every other earphones/headphones I have ever tried out!
I myself don't actually use it for its intended purpose and damage it much quicker than it should wear over time so I can't really gauge if it is durable. However, abusing it by listening to music on my smartphone whilst shoving it in either my jacket pockets or my jeans pockets lasts about 6 months, which is a lot to me especially considering the price.
These headphones are well-made and very durable - I bought a pair in 2010 and they still work perfectly now. Given their price - under £15 - they're a bargain. They're fitted with a 3.5mm jack and come with a standard jack attachment. The cord is long (over 2m) so you can move about around the disco equipment while using these headphones.
Overall, a fantastic product.
