This review is from: Sony MDR-E 818 LP Headphones (Electronics)
I’ve had these headphones for around two years now and only in the last few months or so have I noticed any wear in the sound quality. However, this is not surprising as I have been less than gentle with them. They’ve been thrown around, dropped, stuffed in a drawer, kicked, you name it. Remarkably they still worked fine for ages. The only problem now is the jack-plug sometimes needs twisted a bit in my Ipod when I start loosing sound in one ear. I will definitely be purchasing these headphones again as for 6 pounds the sound quality is well above that price, plus they are very robust, they are the most comfortable ear buds I have worn and they’re cheap enough to restock once they go the way of the dodo. I should also mention that these headphones don’t use the system of looping the wire round your neck, it is the standard parallel wire which I love. Definitely a recommended purchase, I doubt you’ll find better headphones at this price.

Good sound quality, very low leakage and comfortable. Compared to headphones you might get with a personal radio or mp3 player, these are very comfortable, good quality headphones at a reasonable price.

An all round solid product, 28 Mar 2006

These are the best headphones that are around from under £10…. they produce an excellent sound quality for the price and the simplicity of these particular sony headphones make the build quality up to a good standard because they can take more abuse compared to some of sony’s flagship headphones models for around £30. i would definately recommend that you choose these headphones if you are a person who takes their music everywhere with you… because the low price means that you dont feel that you have to take extra special care of them all the time… and that dont break easily anyway.

Cheap, but certainly NOT nasty!,
