Manufacturer's Description
The Sony MDR-XD300 Stereo Headphones are a great pair of headphones that deliver high-quality sound at an affordable price. With 40 millimeter diameter, dome-type driver units and long-stroke diaphragms, your music will sound great. The MDR-XD300 driver units reproduce surprisingly-clear sounds at a wide frequency range (8-25,000 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-XD300 Stereo Headphones maximize energy, while keeping size to a minimum. With these advanced technological features, the MDR-XD300 provides great sound without placing too much strain on your pocketbook.

With the MDR-XD300, Sony has taken special care to please both the audiophile and cinema-geek. The MDR-XD300 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-XD300 Stereo Headphones feature an ear-conscious design with soft earpads for long-time listening comfort.

Customer Reviews

Reasonably Priced for Decent Quality.
I recently purchased these headphones to listen to Mp3's via my PC.
So far I have to say I'm impressed. I wanted a big pair as we have two PC's in the same room and I wanted to listen to my music rather than gameplay behind me. They are not too heavy and I sit here for hours at a time and can with these on quite comfortably. The sound quality is good however I do find the movie-audio switch a little redundant.
If you want to buy headphones to carry around with you you are barking up the wrong tree. Mp3players headphones they are not.
If you want crystal clear perfect sound, Then quite frankly, sorry you get what you pay for.
If you want a good set of comfortable sturdy headphones for your Hi-fi or PC that dont sound like they were made in 1989, not forgetting for a reasonable price by a brand leader, then buy these headphones.
As an afterthought too.. Nice long lead :)

Excellent for mixing
I bought these yesterday in for almost twice the price in hmv, big mistake after looking at the price on here. so i tried using them with my ipod and to be honest they sounded quite tiny and i was quite disapointed. but then i plugged them into my mixer to b used with my turntable and they soun ded great, very warm with a good range. so i wouldnt recomend these with a cd player or ipod/mp3 but i strongly recomend using them with some kind of amp. great cans!

Poor sound, poor headband
I bought these thinking Sony would be a good brand. But how wrong I was. First impressions were that they felt comfortable around the ears, but the headband really hurts after about an hour of use. My other first impression was that the sound quality was really, really bad - there is a distinct lack of being able to reproduce bass accurately. That was when I moved the EQ switch to check between Movie and Music. I am not sure that switch is connected to anything.
