Review: Great Bass at good price - I wanted a pair of new ear buds as a replacement for my daily driver Sennheiser CX300-II. As much as I love the CX300-II I wanted to try something with a bit more punchy bass (I’m no audiophile but for the price CX300-II delivers pretty accurate sound. But I felt I could do with bit more bass and let go a bit on accuracy). Sony MDR XB50AP is up front about it’s big on bass nature, as the pics of box show it clearly and in large letters say ‘EXTRA BASS’. So I thought this is what exactly I want! And I have good experience with Sony bass as years ago I had a SE ‘Walkman’ phone (for those of you still remember such) with Mega Bass earbuds. I loved those buds, great bass in small package. I was to buy off desertcart but some reviewers mention there are knock-offs. So I went to BB and got a price match on the desertcart’s price. I’ve included few pics to show certain details on this pair (it says made in Thailand, the flat cables have tiny grooves and feels well made, there’s ‘THAILAND’ embossed on the place where earbuds divide…) all of which another reviewer tells are not seen in the knock-offs. So someone buying these on desertcart can check if those details are in fact there. So after few hours of burn-in (TBH I don’t know how much difference it made) I feel this is pretty good for me. I listen to all kinds of music and as mentioned before I like punchy bass and it delivers just that. Compared to my older CX300-II these feels a little less accurate, but I don’t really care. Quality wise I feel they are well made. Hopefully they’ll last a long time. I’ll update here if there’s anything to update. Only downside I could see is because they are large in size, there’s a bit more possibility of breaking easily by misuse (walking on them etc.) I’ve included pics along with my CX300-II for size comparison. The CX300-II are small made, so I’ve walked on them couple of times by mistake when they were on carpet floors and didn’t affect at all. But will with these I don’t think I can ever take that chance). So, in short: Pros: - Really punchy bass - Well made - Flat wires are easy to keep tangle-free Cons: - Slightly larger earpieces (drivers are 12 mm, so guess we can pardon the size) If my review helped you in some way, please click the ‘Yes’ button below. Thank you!
Review: One of the best pairs of earbuds I've EVER owned! - Full disclosure - I know nothing about headphones, at least in regards to technical specs. I cannot help with that but I'm sure there are many reviews that can. I simply wanted a decent set of backup earbuds (I own a pair of Bose wired earbuds purely for intense jams to music on occasion) that I could use daily, that weren't too incredibly pricey should I damage them. I prefer to use earbuds when watching TV as I have an enhanced Roku remote with a headphone jack for private listening. I wanted the sound to be clear and crisp enough for both TV dialogue and background music. I ordered these Sony earbuds after reading a review for them and I was not disappointed, so I feel I must give back and write my own review as well. These are excellent quality earbuds for this price point. Included with the earbuds is a set of different sized tips. The earbuds themselves fit a bit "wonky" by which I mean, its slightly different compared to others I've used. Some say the fit is uncomfortable, but I did not find this to be true. I believe its just the slightly odd angle that these fit which makes them possibly seem uncomfortable at first - but once you've worn them a few times, you will likely notice they aren't so much uncomfortable as just maybe a bit awkward to get used to at first. If you navigate to the provided photos of the earbuds, you will notice that the entire end where the earbud sits is larger than most other earbuds. While I admit that they felt a bit weird in the beginning, I now rather like the fit. It was necessary for me to change the tips to smaller ones, but once I did, it gave me a strong, sturdy, and comfortable fit. As far as the sound quality - amazing! Excellent with bass tones, very crisp and clear sound, and very little noise distortion from the cord. I absolutely love these and I highly recommend these earbuds for anyone out there who, like me, doesn't understand the technical aspect of what makes a quality earbud - but just wants a great pair. These are fantastic and the sound quality almost rivals my too-expensive Bose earbuds. Thanks to that reviewer who wrote such a convincing, truthful review - your thorough description is what made me decide to purchase these and I'm very glad I did!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hello? I would like to try a free sample of this product please. Thank you.**
A: I think they send one to you for free if you pay for it.

**Q: How long do these last? has anyone had a pair die on them?**
A: I had one pair last 4-5 months but I used them 12 hours a day 7 days a week. To be honest i am surprised that they lasted that long as most people don't use their ear buds that much.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by N***O on August 27, 2018*

Excelente calidad para el precio, muy buena construcción y son súper cómodos. Las almohadillas son suaves y se acoplan bien, cabe mencionar que no son 100% aislantes de sonido, puedes escuchar ruidos exteriores si son fuertes. El sonido es excelente, no por nada Sony se ha mantenido en la industria de la música tanto tiempo. Pero puedo decir que no se debe esperar un sonido muy refinado, si lo que buscas es claridad absoluta en medios y altos es probable que estos audífonos ahoguen un poco por sus drivers dedicados a los bajos. Recomendaría estos audífonos para escuchar metal, rock, techno o electrónica, aunque yo los uso para todo género. Ahí sí se aprecia el "punch" en los bajos, con la ventaja de que no se necesita subir mucho el volumen para lograr el efecto. A pesar del bass puedes disfrutar mucho las demás frecuencias porque no estamos hablando de unos Beats que ahogan todo, con estos Sony se integran de manera muy precisa todos los rangos de sonido, las voces y platillos son claros, las guitarras presentes en todo momento y los sonidos sutiles se aprecian muy bien. Son de cable plano y difíciles de enredar, yo los guardo doblados en su bolsita de tela y me han durado bastante tiempo. Pedí otro par por sí los descontinuan.
