What's great about it:?The fit, says in ear while working out What's not so great:?Sound quality is horrible "I bought these today, eager to try them out at the gym, happy that I finally have earphones that won't fallout while I'm working out. Plus with the cost and the fact that it's a Sony, I figured the sound would be great. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?Okay sound, two cord options What's not so great:?Product life, hard to fit if use over the ear "I wanted a new set of headphones to use with my Ipod. I'm not sure if my ears are hard to fit or what the problem is but I always have preferred headphones that have the option to clip over the ear instead of just in the ear. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?great for running and working out. never fell out of my ears, ever. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?Typical Sony Excellence in sound quality, Great Bass, Good Feel, Customizable What's not so great:?Extension cord can come unplugged, Carrying case is cheap "I have worked with Concert Video, Lighting, and Audio production for 6 years now and as ear buds go its hard to find good sound. These buds will never reach the quality of the $400 versions we use for Bass players but they will not be surpassed by anything in their price range. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?VERY Comfortable, Good Full Sound (Great Bass!), Made for the Active! What's not so great:?No volume control and L shaped end "Great sound is important to me... from Bestbuy.com I will say, these headphones have a good sound.... Unfortunately that's where it stops. from Amazon.com I just got these today (3/25/09)... they are well worth the $20 price tag! from Amazon.com I prefer the behind-the-head style headphones for my workout, but i've always had an issue with them falling apart, usually because the manufacturers use some sort of foam padding on the earpiece which gets torn and ripped up over time. These headphones have just a rubber cover (no foam) with a little "ear-bud" type piece as well to help them stay in place. from Amazon.com I bought the mdr-as30 headphones on a whim without reading the reviews--big mistake. The sound is not bad, but the little piece that sticks into your ear makes it very uncomfortable for prolonged periods. from Amazon.com I'm always a big fan of sony headphones as I think balancing between price, sound quality and design they seem to fit my active lifestyle the best. I expected these headphones to be just over the ears type which I like better than in-ear type that usually hurts my ears after wearing for a while. from Amazon.com

Description

Complement your active lifestyle with great-sounding music from the MDR-AS30G headphones. The single-sided cord minimizes tangles and the short length is perfect for music players on arm bands. For added convenience, the unique "stability tip" provides a secure fit in the ear, preventing drops. The flattening structure makes for easy portability and a hard carrying case is included.
