About this product

Product Information

Listening to music on the go has never been easier with the Sony MDR-XB500 headband headphones. A thick headband that adjusts with a simple pull-and-push motion makes these headphones a must-have purchase for listening to your favorite songs, playing video games, or for other audio pursuits. The wires stay out of your way as they hang down from the black headband connection points. Cut out the noise of everyday life with these full-size Sony headphones that entirely cover your ears and deliver quality bass frequencies during each song. Slip the pressure-relieving ear cushions over your ears and enjoy high-quality bass and mids of your music while remaining comfortable. Slide your fingers across the 3.7-inch wide ear-cups to instantly feel the smooth and soft material that cradles your ears. In fact, the ear-cup thickness is nearly 2 inches wide so that any noise is reduced as you groove to your own beat. The over-the-head extra-large design keeps the Sony MDR-XB500 headphones in place whether you are relaxing on a couch or moving around the room. The sound quality and bass are impeccable because of the tight connections of the wires to the ear-cups and the gold-plated 3.5mm stereo mini plug. The specs on the Sony MDR-XB500 headphones are impressive for both consumer and professional use, including connections to computers, stereos, or soundboards. Enjoy a frequency response of 4 to 24,000Hz, which complements the large, 40mm extra-bass diaphragm driver embedded in each headphone. This brand also designed the driver to remain parallel to your ears, which offers high-quality noise cancellation and auditory experiences each time you wear the device. Thus, the sound that you hear is the amplification of those low-bass conditions that are also enhanced by the 1,500 MW power handling capacity.Additionally, the cloth-lined headband offers another layer of comfort and prevents the tugging of hair when putting on or taking off the headphones. If you slide the Sony headphones down to your neck after several hours of gaming, you don't hear the noise emanating from the ear-cups because the in-ear design insulates the frequencies to just that small area. Plug the Sony headphones into phones, tablets, and other mobile devices for spectacular audio and deep bass on the go. This is easy because the connector is a universal type that is used with many different brands.The 3.9-foot, Y-shaped cord helps to minimize tangles and knots. This feature is always a good attribute because Sony achieved this tangle-free design with a flat cord. The flat construction makes it more difficult to catch on itself when you're gaming with other players or dancing to a favorite song because the Y-shape is nearly half the length of the entire wire. Your stereo input connector has an L-shape, which reduces any clearance issues as you plug the Sony headphones into available portable accessories.When they are not in use, simply place them into a bag or pouch because the extra-large ear-cups and headband weigh less than a pound. In fact, this bass-heavy headphone set is less than 12 inches wide, which also contributes to its easy portability. Feel the full effect of this noise-free headphone set offered by Sony.

    Awesome sound and comfort, a little fragile over time.

    These headphones rock. I have 3 pair. Very comfortable, insanely so. Great sound. Much better than anything I've heard and I was a D.J. for 10 years. Cons: 2 of mine broke after a year or so. Just using them at home, not D.J. ing anymore. Both sides of one just snapped and padding starts to flake after a couple years of light use. From what I'm told these factory ear pads run $40 each or so from Sony. They're expensive so rather than throw them out when stuff snaps I get out the 2 part epoxy and get creative. The older ones don't looks so good with all the glue but they are holding up and still sound awesome.

    10 years later, I'm still astounded by the audio.

    I had these headphones back in high school when they were first released. I could wear them all day and not get fatigued, a nice feature compared to any other headphone in the price range at the time. They are very lightweight, the cushions are like pillows, and they've got killer sound, to boot. I very highly recommend these for prolonged listening sessions.

    Review Of MDR-XB500 (Great Headphones)

    The Good Very comfortable ear "muffs" that encompass my whole ear and are very, very, soft. The overall design is great and very sturdy. The sound quality is amazing, it has great response on high and low frequencies. All around they are great headphones for the price. The circumaural ear pieces help block out the surrounding noise very well. The Bad The slide mechanism was very strong at first but after about two weeks of use it has become much looser which has me worried that it will become so loose that every time I take them off they will lose my adjustment. I have been using them for a while now even though they seem very loose I still haven't had them slide all the way out when taking them off so we will see. Overall Sound quality to price these are a great deal that will leave ...

    Best headphones for comfort and good sound!

    Too bad sony discontinued these, because their new offerings are not up to par. I have two sets now, one for the office and one at home. If you can find a clean pair for around $100 they are totally worth it, even though I bought my first pair new for $55 in 2010. I'm not sure what else compares. If I hadn't been able to find a second set of these I would have tried the bose around the ear for comfort.

    Sony MDR-XB500 - extra bass - YOUR OWN THEATRE

    I bought this product by searching on the net n reading reviews,at first i hesitated to buy coz of its cost i.e. around $90,i was bored buying headphones having bass.the type of bass which i wanted,i couldnt buy,but my search lasted here,when i bought this. i was shocked by the bass it throws with vibrations,thats awesome. it is the coolest headphone i ever had. i only disliked about this product is the length of the wire given,thats short.it should have been a little longer,but thats need not worry,thats just a suggestion. thanks a lot
