"Perfect balance between price and quality"2010-05-16 By D. Tramte (Bowling Green, OH USA) I HIGHLY recommend these headphones to anyone! These have the sound quality of $400 headphones for well less than $100. They are unbelievably comfy too, which is actually pretty important when your working on or just listening to music all day.
My only problem with them is the fact that they aren't as durable as your typical $300^ studio monitors. They're mainly plastic and they could theoretically crack if you were to sit on them or something. However, you just have to remember that you only paid about $70 for them!!! Everything else about these monitors are AMAZING. You just have to make a conscious effort to take care of them.
I am an electroacoustic composer so I need a perfect representation of the sounds that I make. I used to have to go to the studio in order to hear it on awesome speakers. Now, I can just work at home because these headphones are truly that good!
There are no sound canceling functions on these headphones BUT the padding is such that I can hardly even hear myself breath.
PROS:
Super comfy. Almost usable as earmuffs!!! When music isn't playing, I sometimes forget they're on my head! Super cheap. You are NOT going to find a better quality product for this price. Fact! Sound quality is pretty much as good as you can possibly get! Chord stretches pretty far. Quarter inch AND eighth inch. Flexible. Bass response is awesome! Sony gives a ton of buffer room for frequency response! 5 hz to 30,000 hz!?!?!?! Overkill! Super quiet ear cups.
CONS:
Almost all plastic. So, there's a potential to break. If you're moving around a lot, you can occasionally hear a plastic on plastic creaking/friction sound. This rarely happens however. You'd have to be REALLY moving around.
SUMMARY:
Seriously, if you're looking for REALLY AWESOME studio monitor headphones, there is no reason NOT to buy these! If you're that worried about durability, BUY 2 OF THEM!
"Sony MDR-V600"2010-05-02 By RG (St. Pete, FL) I'm not an expert. These are good quality headphones with very good sound. Better sound than my Bose QC3 headphones.
"Sony Sucks"2010-04-12 By dasn0wman (Brooklyn, NY United States) I used to think these are good but as I realized it was more a placebo thing because 1) I used to think Sony makes the best electronics so it would naturally include headphones 2) I was ignorant in the world of headphones. Do your research, Sony is not even close to being in par with the best headphones manufacturers like Sennheiser, Grado, and AKG. These brands are, in my opinion, the best in the business. After listening to jazz with my AKG 702 and switching over to the Sony, I feel like just throwing this piece of garbage on the wall like really hard. The sound coming from it sucks so bad in comparison with my AKG. Don't believe me? Read all the bad reviews in any review web site, not just this site, and you will hear the same thing: muddy. Sony headphones sound muddy. I own 3 Sony headphones and they all have the same characteristics: loud, muddy, and bassy. Now 1 and 3 are not bad qualities, but 2 is just unacceptable for anyone looking for good sound. Now these will for sure sound better than really cheap portable headphones or your ipod buds, but that doesn't necessarily mean they are any good.
"best headphones. period."2010-03-17 By D Mats
I am a huge audiophile and I listen to music ALL the time. Mostly hip hop and rap, with a little pop, R&B, and rock. I have tried countless headphones over the years: various Skullcandies (SK Pro, Ti, Skullcrusher), Sennheiser HD 280, Beats by Dr. Dre, and these. The best headphones in this list are the Beats and these Sonys. The only difference is that the Beats have slightly better bass. However, if you dont want to pay $300 just for slightly better bass, then they are otherwise the exact same headphone. The Sonys have superb sound quality: its a whole different experience listening to music, i heard effects and little touches in the songs that ive never heard with any other headphone. Durability is FANTASTIC: ive heard complaints about the vinyl leather coming off, but ive had mine for 6 years, and had no problems. Unless youre going to scratch it off with your nails, that wont be a problem. Also, i keep them in the outside pocket of my backpack, which gets thrown around a lot, and they have NO damage. BEST HEADPHONES BY FAR.

"great headphones"2010-05-18 By Mark C pros: -excellent sound quality- the bass is great (that's a given) but I was a little worried about the mids and highs, after using some of their earbuds. Turns out Sony has designed these headphones extremely well and sound quality in all ranges is crystal clear and supported -comfortable- it really is like having pillows on the side of your head. The extensive foam padding is memory foam or something and after a while you don't even feel them. If it weren't for the heat buildup you might forget you're wearing them. -draws attention- they're definitely the biggest headphones i've ever seen and I'm assuming everyone is just as interested. -Well built- this unit feels solid and everything is securely attached. -flat cord- reduces tangles
cons: -big, not very portable- i mean, you can't fold them down for easier packing. Probably not very ideal for trips, or really putting them in any bags since they're so bulky -draws attention- this can be good or bad depending on your personality and whether you like attention. Personally I don't give a damn so this wasn't really a con for me, but might be for others. -HEAT- I think the biggest con is the heat buildup- it can get uncomfortable after a while.
Overall: I really like these headphones and the cons, in my opinion, are almost negligible compared to the pros. I'll probably include updates as to the longevity of these headphones, but for the moment I highly recommend them.
"Great headphones"2010-05-10 By E. Vargas (Orange County, CA) So i don't really purchase headphones but when i tried these at a local retailer and bought them here for the cheaper price, i fell in love, they sound really nice and look great.
"Quite Pleased"2010-05-05 By Rhett T. Castleberry (Clarksville, TN USA) First off i just want to say that i use mine for casual listening music and movies mainly. They have the best comfort you re gunna get if a headset period. They perform very well from the bass to the tremble but not overly amazing but def very good. For durability the cord is very tough with good sound construction of the rest of the headphones. They are very light and stay on my head very well. I wouldnt buy them for running for anything but they re fine for walking around. I would def buy them agian and am buying the 50mm ones right now just to see if they re even better. For the price id say it is a excellent buy.
"Could make a better pair on my own with parts from Radioshack"2010-05-05 By Amazon Customer Yes, they are very comfortable and have deep bass. But the bass overwhelms everything. If you prefer a balanced sound with deep bass, this is not the pair for you; you will hear -only- the bass. In addition, if you compress the headphones onto your head, the pressure will immediately damage the speakers and you will start to hear crackling noise when in use.
"Excellent headphone for the price"2010-04-29 By Ed H. Chi (Palo Alto, CA USA) I bought this after reading many of the reviews here and elsewhere. The sound is quite good, and for the price and functionality, exactly what I was looking for in these types of headphones. I wanted something that blocked out the sound from the airplane when I am traveling, but yet the ears should not get overly hot.
I love the comfort of the big cushions, even though that increased the size of the device overall. I also really like the flat cords for storage, as it seems get tangled up less in my bags.
Overall, I would buy these again, and it seems to function better than the noise-canceling headphones I have bought in the last 5-10 years.

"Clear and Crisp Sound!"2010-05-02 By FashionGoddess (Detroit, MI) I purchased this Sony Walkman after searching endlessly for an IPOD. I did not really want to spend the amount of money the IPODs were going for and did not feel I needed all the extras the IPODs offered. Some of the features such as video shooting on the IPODS is useless to me, because this feature is on my cell phone, so I didn't feel it was necessary to spend the extra funds on a music device that offered features I did not feel I would use. I am very practical and I just want to listen to good music and clearity, crisp sound. The Sony Walkman E-340 Series provided me with exactly that, amazing clear sound and the ability to upload my music from my PC onto my device. It also comes with radio capability, which I was looking for as well. Some of the other features, such as the video & photo features I have not tried yet (for uploading videos onto the device not recording as with some of the IPODS), but these were not the features that brought me to purchase the devise either, as I stated above, it was the simplicity of the device itself. I may find it useful at some point, but for now I am enjoying what I purchased the device for, to listen to music! The device is user friendly and I purchased it in black which looks very sleek! It is lightweight and easily fits in any small purse or pocket. I purchased the 6 piece set and it came with an arm band that you can use when working out, and a protective rubber cover (although could only use about 3 peices out of the set?). I am even able to use my Garmin AC/DC adapter with it, as one did not come with it. The device did come with some nice headphones, however. The organizing of your music may not be as A+ as with the more expensive IPOD brands, but I knew this from reading one or two of the reviews before I purchased the device, so this was not an issue for me, i just click the back button on the device, which takes you to the home menu, scroll to the center using the arrow in the center of the device, then click on the music note icon in the center,and I m able to locate a song or artist from my music library. I am enjoying this device as it was well worth the price I paid for it!
"Rather Dissapointing Step Backwards"2010-04-30 By E. Peck (Orlando, FL) Explanation below - quick summary for those that don't want to read.
Pros: Low Price Good Sound MicroUSB connector
Cons: screen issues terrible video format choice limited video conversion support video conversion makes videos smaller than screen cheap plastic body with awkward shape flat, difficult to use buttons poor software support
On a recent trip I lost my Sony 4 GB Walkman Video MP3 Player with FM Tuner (Red) which was the best mp3 player I've ever owned. Great sound, the video feature was cool, the radio was nice, it was pretty much all way ahead of what was available in the corresponding nano at the time - and for less. It was very compact, smooth and came with good headphones. I'm extremely ticked at myself for losing it.
I got home and ordered what looked to be the latest iteration of what I had. Unfortunately this E-344 isn't close to the same level of quality. The case is larger, all made of plastic and toy-ish feeling and the ends are shaped at weird angles that make it much more difficult to slip into a pocket. The new button layout seems to be an attempt to look like the ipod wheel, but it's impossible to tell what button is in use by touch. The old raised buttons were great on a dark flight. Now I've got to pull this thing out and look at it. The buttons are also very cheap feeling and very loud. They make a loud clicking noise when pressed.
For some reason Sony changed the video format. It used to be similar to what would play on the ps3. WinFF had walkman presets that worked great. They've switched it on this player to a proprietary Windows format not supported by ffmpeg, or probably any free tools for that matter as the new format requires a royalty for software that creates it.
The walkman comes with software that will convert video files and transfer them to the mp3 player. I can't find any documentation on what kind of files it will take, so I've been just trying different stuff out. So far, only .avi files seem to work. It's using DivX to do that, something a lot of people don't have on their computers. I'm not sure what people who aren't running windows can do. This is a incredibly poor choice for a video format.
On top of that, while the screen is larger than my old walkman, when the videos get formatted they are put into a size that doesn't use the full screen. The videos are actually boxed with black bars above and below. On a 2 inch screen. That's absolutely ridiculous. Why should buying a newer version of a device mean moving backward?
When the device is connected to the PC, it has a white circle that is shown with some messages about status. I plugged it in when I got it to charge it up and sync over my music. Now that white circle is burned into the display and I can see it when watching videos. Along with the outline of some of the words that appear below it. This is after having it for 2 days. I am struggling with going through the hassle of returning it or just letting it ride. If you are a perfectionist about this stuff, this is something to consider.
If I want playlists, and I do, I have to use Windows Media Player. It's interface for working with the walkman is awful. Playlists can't be made on the device. You have to make them on the pc, add them to the 'sync tab' and then sync them over. When making playlists, it isn't possible to view what music is already on the walkman. If that's not poor design I don't know what is. I can get what I want but the effort involved is completely out of line with how it ought to be.
So I've listed all my gripes, here are the good parts.
The sound is not bad. It's pretty good and the player has a great price. So when it's all said and done, at the gym or on the road I can listen to my music and it will sound all right.
The biggest thing Sony did right was switching to micro usb for the connection to the device. All mp3 players should do this. I can connect with cables I already have. I don't have to worry about losing the one magical sony cable or what it will cost to replace it. I always have some around for my phone, portable hard drives, etc. When I'm on traveling I don't have to worry about a bunch of power adapters - I can charge my phone, mp3 player, etc. from my laptop with a standard cable. That's nice. So if I could get back my old walkman with this new usb connector it would be the best mp3 player of all time.
But as this thing is, I couldn't really recommend this to anyone. You can do better without spending too much more.
"A few issues"2010-04-24 By EtherealCereal (Michigan) I bought this MP3 player because of Sony's reputation for delivering high quality sound. I have had a the same problems with the video as a few other people, but two of my issues come not from the player (which sounds great), but from the extras included.
1. The headphones/earbuds- MY BIGGEST ISSUE: One would think, given how long the Walkman has been around (and how popular it is has been) that not only would Sony include a pair of quality sounding earbuds (my Phillips Magnavox earbuds sound superior to these), but would also think to include a pair of earbuds with an L-jack, instead of a straight jack. I posessed many pairs of earbuds from Radio Shack back in the 1980's, and the downfall of the straight headphone jack is that it would almost ALWAYS lead to a short in the wiring from excessive movement, especially if you have to wait a few weeks to buy the armband, and have it stowed in the pocket of you jacket, pants, shorts, or otherwise. 2. The Sony Walkman interface-Incredibly difficult to use, especially when syncing videos to your Walkman. You need the exact video conversion rate for this to work properly. you're better off using WMP.
I have not had any problems with syncing songs or creating playlists, so I am very happy with the sound quality of the Walkman itself, and with the storage capacity. I do wish however, that they would have been more thoughtful of the consumer when choosing the extras to include with this player. Some people leading a more active lifestyle would undoubtedly be grateful.
"Sony Walkman E-340"2010-04-24 By Nancela (Bethel, CT United States) It has taken me many years to break down and get a Walkman. This product is perfect for me since I have very few 'device' skills. Simple to use with clear instructions and not a lot of complex uses. It works well for downloading all my favorite music (which is the only thing I really wanted it for!)I highly recommend it for the "newby" to computer devices. Also the price is just right!
"great product...better than my old IPod"2010-04-16 By Erik McNeal I had a 1st gen iPod for four years and when it finally died on me, I got this Sony and it works great and not hurting the wallet either. Using Windows Media Player syncing took a bit of a learning curve but its easy after that.

This Is Genius Control your Genius. Or leave it to its own devices. Either way, Genius explores your library and finds songs that go great together.
Genius Playlists Say you have one song you really love and want to hear other tracks that go great with it. A few clicks on iPod nano, and Genius uses that song to find other songs in your library and makes a Genius playlist for you. You can listen to the playlist right away, save it for later, or even refresh and give it another go. Count on Genius to create combinations you wouldn't have thought of yourself.
Genius Mixes Now there's another great way to get a customized set of songs on iPod nano--have Genius do all the work. Introducing Genius Mixes. All you do is sync your iPod nano to iTunes, and Genius automatically searches your library and finds songs that sound great together to create up to 12 Genius Mixes. These mixes are like channels programmed entirely with your music. It's a great way to rediscover songs you haven't listened to in forever, and some you even forgot you had.

Or just press and hold the center button to flip the album cover art over so you can see the songs. When you find the right song, press the center button to add it to your on-the-go playlist.
Shake to Shuffle Your Music Hear songs in a totally random way. Just turn on Shake to Shuffle, then give iPod nano a shake and it shuffles to a different song in your music library. You never know what iPod nano will spin for you next.
Don't Just Listen to the Radio, Pause it and Tag it, Too The new FM tuner lets you see the names of songs and artists. And two amazing features--iTunes Tagging and Live Pause--make listening to the radio nothing like listening to the radio.
FM Radio--it Gives You Yet Another Way to Rock There's always something great on the FM dial. And now the FM tuner lets you hear your favorite morning shows on your commute and discover new music while you work out. It even shows you what and who you're listening to.1
With Live Pause, You'll Never Miss a Beat Say you need to take a quick break from listening to your favorite radio station. iPod nano lets you pause it with a click. Another click and you're listening to your station again. You can even rewind as far back as 15 minutes, then fast-forward to catch up to the live broadcast.
iTunes Tagging--the New-Fashioned Way to Discover Music It's quite a dilemma: You're listening to the radio and you hear a song you like, but when you go to iTunes, you can't remember the name or even who sings it. Enter iTunes Tagging. Now, you can use the Click Wheel on iPod nano to tag the song. iTunes creates a list of all your tagged songs so you can easily preview or purchase them when you sync iPod nano to iTunes.
VoiceOver--the Talk of the Music World VoiceOver tells you the title and artist of the songs you listen to. And does it so seamlessly, you'll be surprised at how brilliant it is.

Capture a thought, a reminder, a class lecture, or any audio recording you want with Voice Memos.
The new Pedometer counts every step you take. Or add Nike+ shoes and a Nike + iPod Sport Kit for the perfect workout partner.
How it Works You'll notice how smoothly and easily VoiceOver works. A lot of thought went into creating an iPod nano that not only talks, but says the right things. It all begins with iTunes and its seamless integration with iPod nano. First, iTunes reads your song information, then uses the VoiceOver Kit to generate the announcements for the songs, artists, and playlists. Just sync your iPod nano to your computer and it really speaks to you.
It Speaks Multiple Languages Your music library has songs from all over the world--a love song from France, a bolero from Spain, a pop tune from Japan. Luckily, VoiceOver speaks fluent song.
iTunes selects the language and best voice for your song titles and artist names. It looks at song data, like the title, artist, and album information, then applies intelligent algorithms to choose the right language. For example, iTunes recognizes the song "Ya Viene el Sol� by Ozomatli as a Spanish song, so your iPod nano will automatically speak that song title and artist in Spanish. If you prefer to hear that information spoken in another language, you can change the designated VoiceOver language for that song in iTunes.
Hit the Ground Running--Or Walking With the Nike + iPod Sport Kit (sold separately) and a built-in pedometer to help keep you motivated and track your fitness progress, iPod nano makes working out less routine.
Step it up with the New Pedometer You take your iPod nano with you everywhere. Why not use it to stay fit? iPod nano now doubles as a Pedometer. It uses the built-in accelerometer to keep track of your steps and help you meet your fitness goals. You can create a daily step goal or set it to Always On so it counts all the steps you take, all the time. Which makes iPod nano the ideal exercise partner.
Rock and Run Your shoes and your iPod nano team up to maximize your run. See the minutes tick by. Watch the miles unfold. Hear real-time voice feedback. All to your favorite music, including your chosen Power Song--that one song that always gets you through the home stretch.
Rock the Gym Take Nike + iPod to the gym and minute by minute, mile by mile, you're motivated by more than music. Connect your iPod nano to a Nike + iPod compatible cardio machine. Record your pace, time, and distance as you work out. With iPod nano, every trip to the gym becomes a new challenge.
Sync When you're finished, connect your iPod nano to your Mac or PC. iTunes automatically sends your workout data to nikeplus.com. Every workout and every run is there, ready for you to review. Get pumped for your next run with recommended challenges, custom training programs, and maps of new routes to try. Or share motivation with runners across the world.
Note to Self: Voice Memos Are Here The built-in mic lets you capture a thought, a reminder, a class lecture, or any audio recording you want with Voice Memos.
iTunes: Your Greatest Hits It's even easier to organize, browse, grow, and share your digital music and video collection with the new iTunes. And now you can save items with a wish list and enjoy iTunes extras--bonus features on select albums and movies--like lyrics, photos, interviews, and behind-the-scenes media.

"Pleased"2010-05-17 By S. Fountain My ipod was stolen from work and i have to purchase a new one but wasn't sure which one I wanted to buy. I saw the blue nano and thought this may be a great purchase and may be of better use than my previous. I am happy with the purchase I made.
"Awesome!"2010-05-17 By C. Wray (Courtland VA) Gave this to my 17-year old daughter who is tech-savy and she loves it - no complaints! She was previously using her phone and before that had one of the first Ipod shuffles - this is - of course - better!
"Nano 16GB 5G"2010-05-17 By Camille (Plymouth, Michigan) Sound quality not quite as good as Rio Forge (with same earbuds). Controls overly complex. "Shake" shuffle feature is great but quirky. There are repated software problems, which are quickly and easily fixed using the reset feature. Works great with no problems with Ford Sync. Huge storage. Recharging feature very conveneibnet. On the whole, it's an improvement over my 5-year old Rio Forge.

It slips on or off in two seconds (literally), fully covering the back and perimeter of the device (in my case, an iPod touch 3G) while leaving the screen exposed and the cable/earphone jacks accessible. The on/off, home, and volume buttons are covered yet respond perfectly to pressure/touch through the case. It's practically weightless and adds minimal bulk. It shows no smudges or fingerprints (but is washable if there's a need) and feels good in the hand -- the supple rubberized material creates some drag so the device won't slip out of your grasp or slide off a table. I did think the wi-fi responded a little more slowly the first time I accessed it with this case on, but now I don't notice a delay.
Highly recommended! I combined it with PowerSupport's crystal film TU301LL/A (to protect the screen surface) and a BuiltNY neoprene Digital Case (when traveling).
