Prepare for unbelievable audio quality you never thought possible from in-ear headphones. These XBA-1VP Balanced Armature in-ear headphones feature micro-sized balanced armature full range driver units meticulously pre-tuned by Sony engineers to deliver a pristine soundscape full of beautiful highs and deep, resonating lows. Plus, their smaller size means greater comfort and less bulk. With a convenient in-line remote control with an integrated microphone compatible with most Android™, iPhone® and Blackberry® smartphones, you can adjust the volume, change tracks plus answer and end phone calls. Choose from a variety of ear cushion sizes for the perfect fit and better ambient noise canceling.

Double Layer Housing

It’s in the details? A special, liquid crystal polymer, inner housing provides the necessary rigidity for smooth frequency response, while an ABS outer housing suppresses vibrations for clear mid-high frequency sound reproduction. The result is rich audio performance.

Secure Fit

Hybrid silicone earbuds, In 4 sizes, to ensure a tailored fit that further maximizes overall sound quality and comfort.

Noise Attenuation

Noise isolation earbuds (Included: Small, Medium, and Large) not only provide an outstanding fit, but also utilize pressure relieving urethane foam to further reduce ambient noise.

Balanced Armature Driver

Newly developed micro-size, full-range driver units deliver detailed and transparent sound reproduction. Be it your favorite vocalist, driving bass line, piano, guitar or drum solo, hear even the most subtle musical details with tremendous clarity. Get reacquainted with your favorite music.

Mic'd to go

Take calls on the go with the in-line microphone. Answer calls easily while your phone stays safely tucked away. When the conversation is over, go right back to enjoying your music.

Noise Blocking Design

Sony® XBA Series earbuds afford a comfortable fit that also results in significantly lower sound leakage levels, both in or out, allowing you uninterrupted access to your music.

Sound Story

Compared to conventional Dynamic drivers, Balanced Armature drivers reproduce a smooth, broad, and even frequency response with notable vocal clarity. Sony® Balanced Armature drivers can even be tuned for higher or lower frequency response, as well as combined to emphasize certain sound characteristics.

Flexible

Works with most smartphones, including phones with AndroidTM OS, Iphone® and Blackberry®. The supplied connection cable with four conductor gold-plated stereo mini plug adapts the XBA-1VP for the use with most smartphones

Carrying Pouch

A carrying pouch is included to keep your headphones protected while traveling.

Wearing Comfort

The ultra-compact design of a Balanced Armature (BA) earbud allows for a natural in-ear fit and improved long-term comfort.

Amazing sound I had to get used to the in ear quality of these types of headphones but once I did I couldn't get over how great the sound was...such a pleasure to listen to music with these and I also love the functionality of being able to skip songs and pause or adjust volume without scrounging to look for my iphone...highly recommend.
