Product Description

BEING in shape feels a lot better than GETTING in shape! Wherever you currently find yourself on the road to those weight loss or fitness goals, you need entertainment and encouraging words alongthe way. The open air dynamic SONY MDR-W25G headphones can handle any source material from a whisper to a roar, delivering everything from audio books to orchestras directly into your ears with absolute clarity. Frequency Response - 10Hz - 23kHz Sensitivity - 108dB/mW Impedance - 16 ohms L-shaped stereo mini-plug Moisture guard mechanism pulls sweat away from ear canal Slim headband is ultra-light for added wearing comfort

Amazon.com Product Description

The MDR-W25G headphones fit inside the ear for jostle-free listening. Created to match the Sony Sports Walkman line, these headphones are built to meet the demands of the active listener. Besides the inherent snug fit of in-the-ear headphones, the MDR-W25Gs are also held in place with a slim, over-the-head headband. They are extremely lightweight and will provide hours of comfortable listening. These headphones are also water-resistant, taking away an easy excuse for many runners, walkers and bikers. Sony has also installed a moisture guard mechanism which pulls sweat away from the ear canal, providing a longer-lasting fit, even while pedaling or running in a warm gym.

Sony uses 16 mm driver units in these headphones. While lightweight and small enough to fit inside the ear, they also deliver a good bass sound and wide frequency range (down to 10 Hz.) Neodymium magnets give the headphones maximum energy at a minimal size and weight. Sony Acoustic Twin Turbo Circuitry will deliver powerful bass sound for high efficiency as you work towards fitness. The open-air design allows for ambient noise to enter the ear, a safe feature for exercisers as you will hear car horns, passing bikers and dog barks. The cord is one meter long (3.3 feet) and the nickel-plated mini-plug offers crisp sound delivery. If you are looking for a quality-sounding, water-resistant, lightweight and stable pair of headphones, these MDR-W25G headphones should fit the bill.

4 out of 5 stars Sound is fine, getting too bulky.......2007-12-14

The Sony vertical headsets are good products because they have historically been reasonably small, so you could pull a stocking cap over them when running outdoors in the winter, and since they are 16 ohm units, they provide decent volume, unlike the cheapie earbud 32 or 64 ohm impedance garbage.

However, this particular model has grown (physically)- the white band on the side shows how much fatter it has gotten, so they bow out a bit when being worn. I prefer the previous simpler item (MDR-W08), which I no longer find in my local Target store.

4 out of 5 stars If you don't like earbuds.......2007-10-24

I searched high and low for headphones I can wear jogging or at the gym. I find the "earbud" and "over the ear" styles annoying and uncomfortable and I HATE it when other people have their music up so loud everyone around them is subjected to their usually bad taste in music. This seems to happen more with the earbud headphones than with other types. In any case, I have asked my friends if they can hear my music with these headphones and their answer is always "NO". Having said that, I don't have a desire to go deaf in the next five years, which means I keep the volume at a moderate level.

Also, I don't need to look "cool" - I just want good sound quality and headphones that will stay put and not hurt my ears. The sound quality is superior to the other brands in the same price range, but these headphones are not meant for listening to opera, either, so don't buy them and then complain that you can't hear the third violin.

As for staying put, these do. And, if you are a small person with a small head, then these are great, as other brands in the same style were simply too big for my head even when fully retracted.

So, in a nutshell, if you want headphones for excercising only (but not bike riding with a helmet on, as someone mentioned), then these are great. The only thing I wish is that the cords were retractable so I wouldn't get them tangled all the time.

3 out of 5 stars These get the job done headphones.......2007-03-10

These headphones keep the sweat out better than other similar athletic headphones. These are very affordable and the sound is OK, not great. Someone else mentioned that they are not durable and I support that. I have gone through 4 of these in a year. They tend to break at the joint. Before you buy check out Sennheiser PMX 70 Sport Earphones. I just bought these and I admit they are more expensive, but these have a single cord so the cord does not become twisted and they are made of a firm but flexable material. I have only run with them 2x they are comfortable although they do look a but weird.

3 out of 5 stars Not what the description is at all............2007-02-20

The description of these is wrong, wrong, wrong. the frequency response is only 20-20,000 hz, not 10- 20,000 hz. and the sensitivity is only 104 db not 108 db like the description also says. I have 3 different pair of in-ear headphones and I have tested them all to the same song and the same mp3 player and all of mine are the same. I have the following models: mdr-w08, mdr-w014 ?, and my new ones mdr-w25g. All of them are the same so don't spend the extra money like I did. They work great and are great but if you are expecting a better sound and response you will not get this from these compared to other sony in-ear headphones. I am a total Sony headphone geek, I love the quality. Just don't buy the most expensive as most ofthem are the same. Good luck.

1 out of 5 stars Drop in quality.......2007-02-10

I have used these headphones for a long time. I have occasionally had to replace them when I pulled the wires out of the speakers. The last two pairs were very brittle and broke easily just below the hinges, two pairs in three days. This has not been a problem until now (Feb 07) and previously I found these headphones to be perfect for my needs.
