      Thy have a short chord. none of that 6-foot nonsense. the connector is well designed, although it doesn't stay in very well, the sound is good, perfectly balanced as usual. the swivel on the actual speaker is very useful and well designed. i would recommend these to a friend.

      I have a dozen headphones. I am still searching for the most comfortable and best, and I have not yet found it. THIS set of headphones is better than "average" in comfort and sound quality. I listen to music nearly all the time, and need to be able to isolate myself in comfort... and this does an adequate enough job. Listening while working on the computer (reading and writing), and late at night, when I listen to either music or news on the radio... I am still trying this out, and so far, so good. My search for the perfect pair of headphones shall continue, but, I think I will be using this set on the average a bit more than the other 10 pairs I have...

        Love the color makes your headphones easily identifiable. The sound quality is exactly what you expect from Sony. For the price this is a steal. The only knock is the short cord.

          Nice attempt

          By Anonymous

          from Madhouse on Madison

          Pros

          • Price, Comfort (very comfortable)

          Cons

          • Sound quality

          Best Uses

            Comments about Sony MDR-ZX100 Stereo Headphones (White):

            For the easily amused and less than casual listener of music via headphone, this headphone may serve some purpose, however, to the experienced ear this headphone set will insult your ears. I love Sony headphones, I had a pair of V900HD's (which inadvertently broke), and I suppose I became relatively spoiled with the sound they were capable of producing. For the price, these headphones are decent but, for Sony, these headphones are a joke. Notes are always left out with these headphones (especially low bass notes). If you are on a tight budget, buy em! If you're looking for good headphones please do some more research and buy a pair of quality headphones. Sony offers a wide range of quality headphones as long as one is willing to pay the price.

            Bad Sound Quality, Uncomfortable To Wear

            By MDRV150FAN

            from NY

            Pros

            • None, other than L-shaped plug, short cord

            Cons

            • Terrible Sound Quality, Painful To Wear

            Best Uses

              Comments about Sony MDR-ZX100 Stereo Headphones (White):

              My MDR-ZX100 delivers very poor bass, a muddled and muddy mid-range and painfully high treble, with extreme distortion at anything but low, low volume levels. Sadly, the previous MDR-V150 model exhibited superior sound quality in every aspect. The V150 might have been a little tight when new, and fragile over time, but the ZX100 doesn't appear to be shaped for a normal human head. The head band is extremely wide, but shallow, digging into your scalp, and the pads press painfully against the bottom of ear but pull away from the top the ear. Pain without any gain. MDR-V150 owners will be very disappointed with the ZX100 model. I wholeheartedly regret my purchase of the MDR-ZX100.

                  These headphones are great. I use them when I make beats and I can hear everything as clear as if I ran the sound through my main speakers. There is just enough bass to make these headphones great for in the studio.

                      I love these headphones, i have bose earbuds and after wearing them they bother my ears a little so i bought these and wow i did not expect such good sound out of 19.99 headphones what a great product. They have the same if not better base than the bose buds, which were 99.99 they are comfortable for long periods of music listening or video editing. the longest i have worn the headphones was about 5 hrs and no discomfort. Stylish looking i can wear them around my neck in public and have people ask what headphones they are because they look nice, and when i show them how they sound and tell them the price they cant believe it. i recommend them to everyone as a inexpensive great pare of headphones, i don't see where you could get a better deal 5 star A+

                            I had these headphones for 2-3 weeks. I wear glasses, so it's rather uncomfortable to have this fit so tightly around the head. It can get really uncomfortable if your head is wide. The cushion of the headphone cup is also rather uncomfortable. But other than that, this headphone is really good for the price! I got it for $12, free shipping. :) Definitely worth the price. Love it so far. The sound quality isn't as good as I expected it to be though. If you can afford it, buy a more expensive headphones. If you're under budget, this is definitely a good starter headphones.

                              The Sony MDR-ZX100 is good value for money. Indeed, the Sony MDR-ZX100 offers generous bass and treble clear. Listening is well balanced in all frequencies.
                              The Sony MDR-ZX100 also presents a careful design: thick pads, a headband that ensures a secure fit, and the earbuds rotate to fit perfectly to your body.
                              Finally, the gold-plated mini-jack is the guarantor for optimal transmission of the sound signal.
                              In short, a good headset simple and functional to simply replace the original mediocre earphones for your iPhone.

                              I bought these headphones after the marshmallow buds gave me an acute ear infection and so far they are great.

                              These are the beast stereo headphones i ever had. When i first bought these, they were stylish, and a good price. I was afraid the bass was terrible but it was magnificent.I had these headphones last year and they still work. I recommend for you to buy this.

                              Sony seems to have gotten the cheap ones right with these. I recommend these over the MDR-V150s and the more expensive MDR-NC7 as they both break super easy.

                                Overall great quality for the money. The only reason I rated 3 stars is for the short in the cord so I returned them. I suggest when buying headphones such as these, spend the extra money on higher quality Sony headphones.
