Now in white. As far as we can tell, these are the exact same thing as Sony's MDR-EX71 earbuds, just without the cord extension and carrying case (same driver size, frequency response & tech specs). The EX71's have become extremely popular with...   expand review  iPod users as a step up from the standard iPod headphones. Some people don't like the conspicuous white cord, some people just want better fit and sound. These offer both.

These ear pieces actually fit slightly into your ear canal, isolating it from outside noise and providing a crisp, full, and direct sound. The main advantages to these type of earbuds is that they block outside noise from interfering with your music, they contain your sound so you don't interfere with other people, and with the correct size attachment, they won't fall out of your ears. For the size and the price, the sound quality here is outstanding as well; you'll immediately notice the difference over inferior earbuds. -the mgmnt

This mid-priced headphone from Sony is something of a legend. Initially introduced in the early 80s, it became the standard among studio heads and educated consumers alike for its excellent sound reproduction and strong build. Look up some reviews on the internet...   expand review  and you'll find that people literally swear by them. According to the specs, these aren't much different than similar current models, but fans claim they have a certain chemistry that makes sound that much better. Turn V6's all the way up and you will still have clear (but not tinny) highs, solid mids and an undistorted bass. The construction is also notable, with sturdy metal fasteners and a handsome leather headband. The cord is single sided and coiled. The MDR-V6 come with a leather carrying pouch and a silver 1/4" adaptor. -the mgmnt

The single cord is coiled, so you don't trip over yourself in the DJ booth. Plus these look mad fly with all the perfectionist details including a slick carrying pouch.
