The Sonxtronic xdr-8000 is advertised as "W08-style", and it does match the W08 in size & fit. The volume is a bit louder than the name-brand W08, which is an improvement. However, the sound fidelity is not quite as good as the W08, and a very finicky listener might not be totally satisfied with the music reproduction. I use them for recorded books, and they are excellent in that role.

Sound quality good but way less than my exact looking Sony’s I’ve had for more than 20 years. But also less than half the price of buying the Sony headphones today. I like them much better than Apple ear phones thes don’t hurt my ears I could even sleep in them if I wanted to take that chance

I love this style headset because I have hearing loss in one ear and cannot understand what is being said if I don't hear it in stereo. The ear piece sits very comfortably inside your ear so that the sound is projected right into your ear canal. Not only can I hear everything I listen to, I can hear at a lower volume - no more blasting my iPod to enjoy my podcasts. This headset is so lightweight and comfortable, I sometimes forget I have it on. I definitely recommend this product to everyone who uses a headset.

If you have used the Sony MDR W08 and do not have almost $200 to replace them, then this is the headphones for you. They are excellent, great and superb! They are a little expensive but not almost $200 worth. I used to buy the Sony MDR W08 for $9.99. What happened to them to have them sky-rocket to $189.00 I have no idea! They must have been the best and Sony did not realize it! I use to buy 4 at a time. This substitute will do!!! I do wish they were cheaper than $25.00 cause then I would buy at least 10!!! I hope and pray that these do not go up in price in the future!!!!!!!
