Product ReviewsSony MDR-XB600 Headband Headphones - Black/Gold

Very Bass-Heavy Headphones

Straight and to the point; these are headphones for very bassy songs. Listening to neutral music, the bass is bloated and heavy, with lack-luster mid's and treble.

But with the right song focused around a bass line, they can be very happy, and nothing else compares.

I find these surprisingly comfortable, with plush earpads that form well to my ear.

Build quality isn't terrible, all plastic and small tendency for slight creaks on adjustment. My first pair did survive Canadian winters, surprisingly enough it was the ear pads that wore out first, after two years of daily use. There are replacements now here, that weren't available when my set was done. The anti-tangle cord is surprisingly effective.

Another note, these probably are the best sound isolating headphones I've had that weren't active noise cancellation.

Bottom line: If you can get over the cheaper plastic and on-ear design, these headphones deliver bass for days, and excellent passive sound isolation.Read full review...

OK earphones

good sound qualities but if you are active it may need frequent adjustment on your head because it does not seem to stay as placed on head. Maybe you will have better luck there. If you plan on using them for walking or jogging you might be able to hear the surrounding sounds like a car coming behind you because they really don't isolate the sounds from your music.Read full review...

Great Quality Headphones!

Buying really big name brand equipment can be costly, but when you can afford them, it's worth it. The music doesn't get drowned out by the bass and it cancels out much of the outside noise for better music immersion. Really awesome when taking walks through a busy area, so I recommend these and any other Sony brand headphones.Read full review...

Buy them!!! They are Worth it =)

great product great price. I am a guy that is used to the cheaper headphones and felt it was a waist of money to buy headphones that cost 20 bucks or more. but one day I got curious about the more better quality ones to see what all the hype was about and why people were spending so much on head phones. After hearing these I was amazed by the quality in sound with good base. blocks outside noise very well also.Read full review...

Nice, but could be better for that price

Frankly speaking, I expected more from this product... Sound Quality is normal and the Bass is pretty good too, but volume is not high enough for me (I am not deaf, nor any hearing problems, just I used to have in-ear headphones all the time so its difficult to get used to over-ear ones)

Ear padding is very soft and comfortable but it doesnT isolate outside noice and also when I turn volume above middle level, it bothers people around...Read full review...

Equalize and amplify for excellent sound
