Product Description: Studio Monitor Series Headphones incorporate high-end materials and advanced engineering; critically clean, exceptionally clear sound for professional and high fidelity applications. Reversible earcups enable single-sided monitoring flexibility. 30 mm diameter drive units are larger than many headphones for deeper bass, lower distortion and wider dynamic range; bass response extends down to a low 18 Hz. 500 mW power handling stands up to day-in, day-out use at high output levels. Ferrite magnets allow for high energy and compact size producing ample sound output - 98 dB/mW sensitivity. Oxygen-free copper cord assures maximum conductivity, minimum noise. It conducts electricity better than conventional copper. Supra-aural design rests lightly on the ear and creates a controlled environment for better sound. Driver is positioned the correct distance from the ear canal. Wide, molded headband distributes the headphone's weight over a wide area; reduced pressure means comfortable listening for hours on end.
Amazon.com Product Description: The MDR-V150 closed supra-aural headphones provide top-end comfort and sound quality. Sony's closed type headphones allow only a limited amount of ambient noise into the ear canal, giving your attention fully to the music. The padded earcups fit comfortably, hour after hour. For those who like to use the headphones for single-sided monitoring, these MDR-V150s come with reversible earcups. The supra-aural design is engineered for excellent listening comfort. The wide headband distributes the headphone's weight evenly. The two meter cord (6.6 feet) is made of oxygen-free copper wiring and is double-sided.
Sony has installed several key features to these headphones to enhance their sound quality. The thirty millimeter drive units delivers a deep bass sound and a wide dynamic range (the frequency range extends down to 18 Hz.) Both the stereo mini-plug and the UniMatch phone plug are gold-plated to make sure sound is transported fully and accurately. The gold-plated treatment also helps resist corrosion and supports the headphones' high conductivity and low noise. Lightweight ferrite magnets allow for high power at a minimum size. Finally, the PET diaphragm works to deliver low distortion.
Excellent fit, excellent compatibility and excellent sound: these headphones fit the bill for a sound professional.

Average Rating:
Rating: - They are so inexpensive
If you want to marvel at the sound of your favorite record or be blown away by engineering wizardry - move on. These headphones don't even rate enough to appear on most audiophile "best of" critiques. But for something to leave at your desk, they're pretty incredible for the money. Average comfort. OK sound. OK build. OK isolation. All for the price of three Lattés.
Rating: - Painful to wear after fifteen minutes
I had gotten these as an exchange from a set of headphones that cost twice as much. And while the sound quality is better than those headphones, these will be going back to the store as well.
I have a relatively small head, so it wasn't crushing my head like other people have described. But the headband is incredibly uncomfortable, even after adjusting several times in an attempt to alleviate the pressure on top of my head. The ear pieces were just as uncomfortable.
Get these only if you want great sound... by holding them to one ear like they are designed to do.
Rating: - Headphones disappointment
These phones did not deliver as I expected. You need to turn up the volume on devises they are connected to to get any decent audio sound out. I have buyers remorse for buying this product.
Rating: - Fairly Cheap, and Works Well
I have purchased several of these in the past, and have never had a problem with them. They have fairly good sound, and comfortable earcups. I especially like how they come with a 3.5mm to 1/4" adapter for uses ranging from an actual studio, to a mp3 device. Overall, I would recommend this to anyone looking for a higher quality, cheap pair of headphones.
Rating: - Excellent For The Price
I bought these on a lark after absolutely destroying my old Dynex pair (caught my foot on the cord as I jumped out of a bus and just ripped them apart). I just went to my local big box electronic store and bought the pair of headphones that looked most similar to my Dynexs, and let me tell you I am impressed.
I bought these for about 25 dollars, and they are very nice. Lovely clear sound, though you do have to turn the volume up quite a bit to get the full effect. I've found treble to be represented fairly well, with base coming in just short of it. I don't listen to too much base ... Read More
