Amazon.com Product Description
The Sony MDR-XD400 Stereo Headphones are a great pair of headphones that deliver high-quality sound and affordability. With 50 millimeter diameter, dome-type driver units and long-stroke diaphragms, your music will sound great. The MDR-XD400 driver units reproduce surprisingly-clear sounds at a wide frequency range (5-30,000 Hz). These substantial headphones feature neodymium magnets for greater power handling and higher frequencies. Five times more powerful than standard earphone ferrite magnets of the same size, neodymium magnets mean that the Sony MDR-XD400 Stereo Headphones maximize energy, while keeping size to a minimum. With these advanced technological features, the MDR-XD400 provides great sound without placing too much strain on your pocketbook.

With the MDR-XD400, Sony has taken special care to please both the audiophile and cinema-geek. The MDR-XD400 features a sound mode switch (music or movie) to more adequately match the sound source. With a simple flip of a switch, you can focus the headphones frequency range to make your music come to life or bring you that much closer to your favorite film star. Of course, Sony has not scrimped on comfort. The Sony MDR-XD400 Stereo Headphones feature an ear-conscious design with soft earpads for long-time listening comfort.

The Sony MDR-XD400 Stereo Headphones, 2.5 meter extension cord, and unimatch plug adapter (gold).

5 out of 5 stars Love them, Love them, Love them!   October 17, 2008
I highly recommend. They look a little goofy when you wear them, but are the most comfortable and best sounding cans in this price range.


5 out of 5 stars Unbelievable   September 21, 2008
These are the greatest set of phones I've ever bought. The sound quality is crystal clear and allows for every detail to play through. You do not miss a single beat with these things. Works amazing with video games too; I hooked these things up to my TV while playing Xbox, and it's really amazing. Extremely comfortable, fits all the way around your ears, and I have big ears. These things are great!!!!

The lows are low and clear, the highs are unmistakable and I don't think you can ever blow them out..... The 1 problem I have with them is the earcups don't swivel and I've always been a big fan of that feature.... The wire is covered in cloth making it very easy to manage but still keeping it very strong. The movie music switches aren't labeled and so far make no difference.... While HUGE they are light, comfortable, and the drivers can be pushed by an ipod without any want for more power


3 out of 5 stars I'd recommend something else   July 4, 2008

I got these because they were rated pretty high on here and they looked decent. But there's a couple things you need to know before buying these:

1) They're gigantic. The picture doesn't do it justice, they're enormous and the over the head band makes you look like an alien or something. Not for traveling whatsoever (not that they're designed for that, just pointing out that you will NEVER takes these with you somewhere).

2) The sound quality is meh. I had a different pair of sony street style headphones which I got for 30$ and they had twice as good sound quality as these. The bass is there but it's weak and won't satisfy.

3) They're really not very comfortable. The speaker parts are slanted to accommodate your ears, but they're also hard and inflexible, and if you wear them for much longer than an hour they will start to hurt and will become very uncomfortable.

4) They're not well made (or at least mine wasn't). I've only had them for a few months but some part of the internal connection from the cord to the right earpiece has come loose so now the audio flickers in and out on the right side unless I find the right position for my head and then stay exactly still, which needless to say becomes very irritating.

So overall I would say don't buy them, you're likely better of with something else for an equivalent price.

My daughter just loves these earphones. She says the clarity of sound is very good and they are very comfortable on the ears.
