Sony MDR-V900 Monitor Series Headphones with Reversible Earcups description The MDR-V900 closed circum-aural headphones provide top-end comfort and sound quality. The headphones are part of Sony's Studio Monitor Series and are built with high-end materials using advanced sound engineering. These MDR-V900 headphones are designed to meet the demands of high fidelity users. Sony's closed type headphones allow only a limited amount of ambient noise into the ear canal, giving your attention fully to the music. The padded earcups fit comfortably, hour after hour. For those who like to use the headphones for single-sided monitoring, these MDR-V900s come with swivel earcups. The earcups are also reversible, and have been designed to be comfortable for on-shoulder use. The circum-aural design is engineered for excellent listening comfort. With this design, the earcups rest lightly on the ear, while the driver units are positioned along the ear canal for ideal sound transport. This fit fine-tuning reduces pressure on the ears, thus allowing you to wear the headphones for longer periods of time with much more comfort. The wide, molded headband distributes the headphone's weight evenly. The headphones are foldable for easy storage and portability; when folded, the headphones will easily fit in a backpack or purse. The concealed, single-sided, three meter cord (ten feet) is made of oxygen-free copper wiring for maximum conductivity and minimal noise. Sony has installed several key features to these headphones to enhance their sound quality. The fifty millimeter drive units delivers a deep bass sound and a wide dynamic range (the frequency range extends down to 5 Hz.) The neodymium magnets allow for superb power at a minimum size; these magnets provide more magnetic energy than other inferior magnets. The Oxygen-free copper voice coil provides a giant amount of power handling capacity (3000 mW.) The amorphous diamond evaporated diaphragm stiffens the drivers to maximize tonal qualities and provide accurate sound for the entire sound spectrum. Both the stereo mini-plug and the UniMatch phone plug are gold-plated to make sure sound is transported fully and accurately. The gold-plated treatment also helps resist corrosion and supports the headphones' high conductivity and low noise. The UniMatch adaptor is self-cleaning and screw-on. Excellent fit, excellent compatibility, excellent portability and excellent sound: these headphones fit the bill for a sound professional. What's in the Box |

| I have had these headphones for about 4 years now and I have yet to hear a set that delivers better sound. The deep end is very rich but the entire range remains very balanced. The sound is very, very transparent to the point that you might get disappointed even with 192kbit MP3s. Very nice is also the impedance matching with the ipods which means that even the nano is capable of powering the V900 to a sound that will blow your eardrums if you so desire and it will do so for hours, which really comes as a surpise to me as the headset is capable of delivering 3W (!) of power. But really, anyone who spends this money on a headset is probably not about the power. These are so nicely balance that I usually avoid using an equilizer. I will admit that my experience with other topend headsets is limited, but if you go to the apple store and try every headset on display you will find that none will match the quality of the V900, including the over/on ear Bose noise canceling. While the Bose has a very good sound and is equally rich it doesn't have the transparency of the V900. The fit is very tight which shields very well from ambient noise. As a matter of fact I have used a leafblower in the backyard for several hours will listening to music, but having said that, it is NOT a noice canceling headset. Really the only drawback as I can see it is the weight. This is not a light set. In particular the very high quality cable comes with a huge weight penalty. It gets kind of ridiculus with the nano ipod, because the pod is probably less than half the weight of the headset. They are very comfortable on the ear so the weight is not felt that much, but when lying down or turning the head rapidly the weight will cause them to slip of. I bought the Bose in-ear set to complement. | |
