Amazon.com Product Description
The MDR-V300 closed supra-aural headphones provide top-end comfort and sound quality. 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-V300s come with reversible earcups. The supra-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. 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 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 thirty millimeter drive units delivers a deep bass sound and a wide dynamic range (the frequency range extends down to 18 Hz.) 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 neodymium magnets allow for superb power at a minimum size; these magnets provide more magnetic energy than other inferior magnets. Finally, the PET diaphragm works to deliver low distortion.
Excellent fit, excellent compatibility, excellent portability and excellent sound: these headphones fit the bill for a sound professional.

Not perfect, but very good!!.......2007-10-18
Looking for good headphones for my iPod I came across these. Sound quality (to my ears) is rather good and clean, with deep bass (very good for synthesized dance/electronic music or neo soul music which are usually bass heavy, but my Jazz and Rock sounds great too).
Lightweight, it fits snugly over my head and onto my ears and in an office or home environment, blocks out most of the surrounding sound, leaving you to hear just your music. It doesn't block out much subway or airplane noise though.
On the downside, the much touted foldability doesn't fold it down to miniscule proportions as I'd hoped, and I find I have to wind up and tie up the 3m long cord. Other than these minor gripes, I'm a happy camper!
Super-glue not included.......2007-08-23
The MDR-V300's are only the second pair of Sony headphones I have owned since I had to retire my my old "Studio Monitor" series pair I had for many years. My only complaints are the cheap plastic headbands and the earpads. The cord and the drivers outlast the headbands. The cord never came apart and the drivers sounded fantastic just like the day I bought them, after so many years of use. But not long after owning them the plastic starts to crack and split here and there. I have had to always keep a bottle of super-glue near by just for this purpose. Im sure down the road my V300's (which I have glued many times already) will endure the same, and I will be left with yet another pair of drivers and a cord to toss away.
Earpads on the other hand are comfy but made out of the thinest and cheapest material and tear very easily. A piece of garbage bag would have lasted longer. I think for the price Sony could at least toss in an extra pair. Like headphones used to back in the 80's... remember?
But the sound is what makes me put up with all this and for that reason alone, I will continue to buy.
So, hey Sony, how bout some better headbands and I will give you 5 stars next time... deal?
Far Better For the Money.......2007-07-18
Before I got into and started collecting headphones, this was the set I used. If you want the short of it, there are several better options than the V300 for the money. It is generally a dark and boomy headphone. It is also fragile. Though mine haven't yet broken, a common site with these headphones is a broken gimbal joint on one of the cups and/or cracked and flaking earpads. In their defense, I think they have a rather beefy cable -- albeit a studio length cable which makes them a hassle for portable use. They are also very comfortable.
There are far better options for this amount of money and less. Most of the Koss line immediately springs to mind, particularly the KSC75 and Pro35a. I also recommend the Sennheiser HD201 (which Sennheiser has apparently recently improved on in the HD205, but I don't have personal experience with it) and the Sennheiser PX100. If you want to stick with a Sony, I would recommend you perhaps hold out for the slightly more expensive, certainly more venerable, V6/7506 (NOT to be confused with V600!).
very good headphones.......2007-03-05
headphones are great for ipod or cd players volume is descent and earpieces are comforable for the person who works out and uses music for motivation . good headphones
Good sound for small heads.......2007-02-06
These headphones produce reasonably good sound, but they are a little tight on my big (adult) head. They are perfect for my kids, however. The cord is really long, so use with an iPod is a bit awkward.
