Sony H.ear On MDR-100A: Can this stylish headphone take on Beats?

2016-04-05
you can get Sony's $200 Iran MDR 100 a headphone in standard charcoal black but what makes it stand out is the vibrant eye catching colors it comes in including red yellow pink or the Veridian blue you see here which has a lot of green in it attractively designed lightweight and very comfortable to wear it folds up to fit in a simple but stylish nylon carrying pouch sony calls it a premium high-res headphone which implies that to get the most out of it you'll need a high res audio compatible portable music player such as Sony's Walkman nwz a 17 or the newer and more affordable NWA 25 which costs around two hundred and twenty dollars online if you listen to this headphone in a vacuum without comparing it to anything else you'd probably think it's a very good sounding headphone with good detail and a fairly neutral sound profile neither bass-heavy nor as transparent or detailed as audio Technica's ath msr7 it's quite pleasant to listen to just not incredibly exciting hopefully over time it will come down in price to around one hundred and fifty dollars it's a likable headphone but faces stiff competition in this price range including from Sony's own mdr-1a which doesn't cost much more online and sounds richer and more open with their more energetic bass and more detail I'm David Carr Noy thanks for watching
