The MDR-W24V 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 and will provide hours of comfortable listening. These headphones feature an in-line volume control. Situated on the cord, this volume control gives you easy access to the most essential of sound adjustments. 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 18 Hz.) Neodymium magnets give the headphones maximum energy at a minimal size and weight. Sony’s Acoustic Twin Turbo Circuitry will deliver powerful bass sound for high efficiency, giving you consistently good sound in an extremely lightweight pair of headphones. 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. If you are looking for a quality-sounding, lightweight and stable pair of headphones, with the added ease of an in-line volume control, then these MDR-W24V headphones should fit the bill.

Great sound, comfortable & light weight
These headphones are the perfect solution for anyone who is not able to use the “ear buds” which come with most portable audio equipment these days.

Sound is ok if they fit in your ear
I bought them based on the reviews. The problem is that they constantly fall out of one ear. Also there is some minor irritation on one of the ear buds.

Excellent sound! Waterproof.
Excellent sound. Very good value. Does not fold up and seems rather flimsy, but after a couple of weeks is holding up fine.

Decent but not as good as the MDR-W20G
I had hoped to get a replacement for my old MDR-W20G headphones, which now seem to be discontinued. Unfortunately, these headphones have a 13.

The Best Headphones Yet
These have been the best headphones I have purchased; by far. Previously, I had ear buds that you pinch and then place in your ear.

I like these better than “in ear” and need volume conrol for 1gen iPod Touch
The Volume Conrol makes my first generation iPod Touch much more useful since I can adjust volume without having to access touchscreen.
These are inexpensive.

They provide as promised.
I bought these for my wife for working out. They replaced a similar pair of yellow sports headphones.

Good price and value for the non-critical listener.
The title says it all; these are fine for walking, exercising or while simply listening as you do other things of greater importance.

So far, so good.
The headphones are generally pretty good.
Good:
* Sound quality (at normal volume)
* Comfortable
* Don’t move while I’m working out
Bad:…

Great while shaving
I get up early so I listen to my Ipod while shaving, etc. in the morning so as not to wake up everyone with a radio.
