Amazon.com Product Description
These super-light, ear-bud headphones weigh a mere five grams (.18 ounces.) They are the perfect headphone for those who relish lightweight, quality headphones. The silent cap confines the music to the listener's ear and away from those in the immediate area, a plus for those using the headphones in the coffee shop or library. The earphones are also open-air, meaning they allow ambient noises to enter the ear; this translates to a safer headphones, as the listener will be aware of horns, whistles and shouts. These headphones are constructed of an anti-bacterial material for a cleaner listening experience. The MDR-ED21LP's deliver a quality sound, even with their small size. The groove design and Bass Booster earpiece shape allows for a better fit; additionally, this system creates more bass response than conventional earpiece designs. The headphones use sixteen millimeter drive units for a deep bass and clear treble. Sony also uses neodymium magnets which provide more energy per ounce than other conventional magnets. The PET diaphragm gives the headphones a high rigidity for minimum distortion. Finally, Sony's Acoustic Twin Turbo circuit achieves high sonic output by utilizying sound chamber and duct technology. The cord is one meter long (3.3 feet) for ample range of movement. The housing is a modern, hi-tech, black and silver metallic finish. The compact carrying pouch stores the ear-buds and cord when not needed; its small size fits nicely in a purse or back pocket.

 Beware the value... August 31, 2008
While, a decent price, it quickly become evident upon use, the headphones are not of the greatest caliber. The sound is not the best. And with my ears, the buds do not stay in my ear very well. The cord is a bit short and stiff. I was not happy with the Sony design in this instance. Typically I like their designs.
Very good headphones. August 27, 2008
I've bought a few different set of headphones lately for different purposes... one set to keep in the laptop bag, one for listening to MP3 from my phone via bluetooth, a set for my computers at home and at work. Nothing too serious, but I have been shopping for what i consider to be the best around this price range.
I bought these thinking that perhaps these, being quasi-in-canal as they are, might offer better bass response than the
Sony MDR-E828LP (and other VERY similar models made by Sony) that I've owned in the past. While the sound is VERY comparable, I think the
MDR-E828LP's actually have a little more bass and a little more volume.
I like both, but the
Sony MDR-E828LP also tend to fit in my ear a little more securely and comfortably.
 Superior earbuds August 14, 2008

These earbuds are absolutely fantastic. I bought them to replace my original iPod earbuds. The Sony set fits slightly better, having a smaller rounded "bud" with a small rectangle on each. When worn properly, with the little rectangle pointed toward the back of your head, these fit nicely into just about any size ear.
As for the sound, it is robust. The highs are nice and clean, the midranges wonderful, and the lows come through very well. Considering these are fairly inexpensive, they are superior in performance.
I would buy these again.
The only con I can see is the wires to each earbud seem to twist constantly and have to be periodically "spun" in the opposite direction of the tangle to be untangled. Over time I suppose this might cause the product to fail, although I've had them for over half a year with no issues.
Great sound for the price. July 25, 2008

Great sound. I've tried a lot of different pairs of headphones and like the sound you get from these better than anything else in the price range. They do fit differently in your ears than other headphones but you get used to it pretty quickly.
I wish I didn't get them July 1, 2008
I don't know, I guess it depends on your ears. I always liked and trusted Sony. I will like and trust Sony in future, but these simply weren't made for my ears. It hurts just trying to put them in. And the sound isn't that great (if you think this sound is the best, you simply don't know what good quality sound is), quite average. But if they fit you ears, I guess it's not a bad deal for the price.
