They do a great job gripping your head. I have three pair of these now.
I am going to buy another set to retrofit my noise cancelling ear plug set: if it works it would be a perfect combination. I do agree with other reviewers that the extra plastic tab is very uncomfortable, but is not a big deal as they easily snap off. I purchased these as I have tried ear buds, over-the-head and ear plugs but they all come out or off when I start vigorous runs are weights. These are the only ones I have found to stay on no matter what. For the price, good headset.
Getting a significant difference in the aural experience would likely cost several times as much money, and when you're on a treadmill listening to a movie it doesn't matter so much. They sound great. Great job Sony. I have several sets of earbuds and I got really annoyed with constantly having to reposition them while I was on my treadmill, so I went back to the "old school" headphones. What a deal. However, what does matter is that they fit snug and are still comfortable enough to wear for a couple of hours, and that does matter when you're on a treadmill or working out some other way.So, now I can exercise and watch my movies when the rest of the family is asleep and not even think about how the sound is getting to me.
I would definitely suggest these to a friend. With them being so comfortable, I sometimes forget that I'm wearing them. I wear these about 3-4 times a week during my workouts. My ears do not hurt after my sessions. The sound output is great.
You lose a bit of your shine each time.I am looking at Sennheiser, Panasonic, etc now. Quality control is non-existent. One went out within a month. Sony, when you decide to make things cheaply, remember, it is the same name on an expensive camera as well as a $30 headphones. I have foolishly bought about 3 of these, at various times. Each and every one of them died on me and my wife, within a few months of use. We didn't use it rough, just the normal gym use, which is what it is advertised for.Never again.
