I use the MDR-G57 headphones on my notebook computer at work. The sound quality is very good, even to my aging ears. from Overstock.com well compared to my sennhiesers and sound system which are midrange. but thats an unfair comparison i know. should have gone for the sony 74L or whateever they r called. cnet did say they have better sound but still gave it the same 6.3 rating. from Cnet.com Sony makes excellent 'phones in general for multipurpose use. I use these at the gym and they give great sound in an environment with a lot of background noise/?music. from Amazon.com I have several sets of earbuds and I got really annoyed with constantly having to reposition them while I was on my treadmill, so I went back to the "old school" headphones. What a deal! from Amazon.com One went out within a month. Quality control is non-existent. We didn't use it rough, just the normal gym use, which is what it is advertised for. Never again. from Amazon.com Pros: They sound good and they fit small ears very well from Amazon.com I use this primarily for running, workout or doing the dishes- it's light enough and water resistant, which makes it perfect for such purposes. However, like all behind ear headphones, they don't really block out noise that well, so take that into your consideration. As a Sony product headphone, the bass is quite good, though it can be a bit too much sometimes in my opinion. It can get a bit too snug too; I find myself readjusting them or taking them out every hour or so. from Amazon.com Ahh this makes me sad. I first bought a pair of these at best buy years ago, and instantly fell in love. The problem now is nobody sells these in their stores anymore, no big box stores, or even the sony stores sell them, so this was the last place I could find them, so I bought several pairs. The main reason I like these is comfort. from Amazon.com This headphone sounds good (Sony's headphones, even the under-$20 models, almost always give really nice sound), and the build quality is as good as any I've seen for this price. The behind-the-head band and ear loops hold the phones very securely and allow you to wear a hat. from Amazon.com Not very good, hurts your ears after a while and not loud or good sound. Sound is blah, not what i was expecting from a Sony. from Amazon.com
