The MDR-W08L headphones fit inside the ear for jostle-free listening. Created for active listeners, these headphones are better held in place with the wide, over-the-head headband. They are extremely lightweight (.5 ounces) and will provide hours of comfortable listening. Sony uses 13.5 mm driver units in these headphones. While lightweight and small enough to fit inside the ear, they also deliver a good bass sound and wide frequency range (down to 20 Hz.) Neodymium magnets give the headphones maximum energy at a minimal size and weight. The open-air design allows for ambient noise to enter the ear, a safe feature for exercisers as you will hear car horns, passing bikers and dog barks. The cord is one meter long (3.3 feet) and the nickel-plated mini-plug offers crisp sound delivery. The headphones are a modern black color. What’s in the Box Sony MDR-W08L headphones

Won’t fit in my ears.
Like other head phones, these cannot fit/stay in ears for long, it will easily come out. This annoys you while you are running.

Plays well for the money, but still does not compare with my old MDR-A34.

Worst Headphones in the World.
The feedback via the metal prong was so bad I didn’t actually get to try them out. They didn’t fit right, the materials they were made from reminded me of a .

they’re adequate
They work OK. My complaint is they allow all the sound in the room to leak into the ear, so the content is difficult to hear in a normal environment.

Great Product
This is my second pair. My first pair wore out after 4 years of use. I wear them for running and they are great.

Best headphones for active sports

They’re not as cool as the new around the ear or in-ear-only buds and they only come in gray, but these are the absolute best…

As clear as mud
While the design looks just like my older model the audio range is not the same. These are very muddy & tinny with a narrow range in sound.
