Really, really bad, no bass whatsoever. Definitely not meant for music of any kind, barely acceptbel for audio books. For comparison, include Sony's previous MDR E828LP, which was superior. But they produced unfortunately not anymore ... would have bought me a coat.

Always good value for money.

Bought to replace MDR-E828LP. Sounded like music in a can, no bass at all, and volume had to be maxed, my tablet warned me of high volume before I could hear music clearly. Plastic thin wires instead of the older heavy rubberized wire. Smaller than discontinued model so it did not fit well.

These are very cheap headphones, but even for their price they are poor. I have in the past paid about 5-10 extra for a cheap pair of Senheisser in ear types like this, and Phillips, that have actually played the music how it is supposed to sound. these have no bass, and wash out and become tinny and distorted at anything over half volume on most devices. awful awful sound quality, needed a cheap emergency pair to last while my good ones came in the mail. do not purchase unless you are using it for something like an audio book, or phone calls or maybe spoken word poetry

These earphones are comfortable, lasts long but has terrible sound quality and no bass. The earphones fit very comfortably in your ear and they do not hurt after a long period of time being there. I have had these earphones for more than a year (31,536,000+ seconds) and both buds still work and you don't need to hold the jack in place. Unfortunately, the buds do produce terrible quality music and

These headphones just straight up sound bad. There's no other way to say it. They can get very loud which is a plus, but trying to listen to music on these is a very poor experience, bass is non-existant. This isn't a problem with being worn out either, I just bought these 30 minutes ago. If I wasn't buying them to replace a pair that had broken I would return them. They are EQ'd to heavily favor mid-range frequencies, meaning that stand-alone vocals are the best fit for these headphones. If you only listen to audiobooks and podcasts these aren't too bad, especially with how loud they can get. But music on these should be avoided wherever possible.

I've bought several pairs of these over the years, along with a few other sets of ear buds from other brands. These are by far my favorite. Squishy in-ear buds make me squeamy, and normal round buds hurt and fall out of my ears too easy. The shape of these is perfect, and they're extremely durable. The first pair lasted three or four years and two or three runs in the washer before one ear finally gave out. The second pair was great until I forgot it in a classroom and lost it. My third pair is holding strong and going on three years. I only wish they'd make either a Bluetooth version, or at the very least a version with a microphone.

Found these at an overseas convenience store and was pleasantly surprised. Very light with thin, tangle-resistant cords makes these perfect for travel. Can't expect serious sound quality at this price point, but they work well and if you lose them it's not a big loss. Seemed not to stay in my ears at first, but once I figured them out the curves of the mold actually hugs the ridge just below the canal really well and makes them surprisingly secure for hard plastic. Love how open and light they feel in my ears and how easy they are to slip in and out without feeling like they will fall out on their own! Looking at replacing a pair I can't find after a trip.
