Sony is no stranger to the audio business and helped start the personal audio craze with the extremely popular Walkman in the 1980's. With 40mm drivers and a wide frequency response of 5-25,000Hz, the MDR-55s give you quality sound straight out of the package and develop richer sound once they are...

These headphones fold for easy storage; and the swivel earcups make it easy to listen with just one ear

They do not come with a storage bag; and the cord is relatively short

Thanks largely to a certain brand of celebrity endorsed headphones, wearing proper headphones in the street is now socially acceptable. The Sony MDR-V55 offer themselves up as "DJ style" so, as Sony puts it, you can take your tracks to the street.

Flexible; comfortable; sound great

Leak sound; cable a little short

i use these headphones for everything.

Awsome; Clear Sound; Futuristic White; Good bass; Very Comfortable

Better Than You Would Expect. Got these For 10 Dollars, Sounds Absolutely Amazing ,VERY LOUD When Connected To A Headphone Amp NX1 Or Better ,Or A Good Source Like A Sansa Mp3 Player Or Whatever Better Youve Got. As I Said BASS IS THERE, HIGHS TOO, MIDS Are ok.

Great BASS Response,Pumping And Thumping,Highs Are Great,Mids Are Okay, Portable, Sounds Great Better Than Mdr XB600 (Rubbish) ; Can Get !! LOUD !

Creaky Build, Bit Fiddly ,But Thats Portability Design In Mind; Dont Hear Creaks When Listening 50% Vol; Cheap Materials Used For Earpads

These are good for the $70 i paid for them, I had originally set out to find a pair of AudiotTechnica's but none of the stores in my area had them. Sony, in my opinion, makes some of the best head phones for the entry level.

Flat cord helps cut down on tangling; The sound is fairly nice; lows; mids; and highs all sound fairly good; The feel fairly sturdy; Comfortable to wear and easy to adjust; They also look somewhat nice in a world populated with those ugly "beats

the cord could be a bit longer, and the while not uncomfortable the padding could be a bit thicker; Like most closedback head phones, your ears can get pretty sweaty wearing them; Even folded up they are still fairly bulky

What a great product, but after about 4years, the fabric on the headset started to break down and fall apart in my ears. Too bad, since the headphones still work, but it's the same price to replace the fabric as it is to get a new set.

Great quality; portability; build

Fabric on headset deteriorated

I have used these headphones for almost a year now and they sound the exact same today as they did when I first used them. I use them every day plugged into my mobile phone listening to music. And plugged into my laptop to watch movies and listen to music.

I have used this series of monitor headphones for about 10 years. Great sound, great comfort. this is my 4th pair in that time. Each pair has broken at the pivot joint. I would like to get more than 2/3 years out of them. THe sound& comfort is good enough to keep buying.
