You get what you pay for
I bought these as a replacement of my AKG headphones. The sound quality is really good. I tried a friend's bose headphones which have better base but the overall sound is much better on the SONY headphones.

Average Quality
I bought these to start the year with new headphones. I thought that since they were expensive and a quality brand they might be better than the $39.99 MDR-EX56/BLK premium EX earbuds (also here on Sonystyle). I didnt get to use them until I got back home, once I put them in and turned the music on I was amazed at the average quality of sound they gave me. I spent $87.17 for these headphones and they have the same quality as the $39.99 MDR-EX56/BLK premium EX headphones. Then i bought the Bose in-ear headphones and was even more amazed of the average quality headphones. $100 headphones have the same quality as the $39.99 ones. MY POINT IS THAT: YOU DONT ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. YOUR BASICALLY PAYING FOR THE BRAND.

Best Headphones I've Ever Owned
I don't have fancy words to describe my feelings about the MDR-EX300. I've had these headphones for nearly a year and have no complaints. These are easily the best headphones I've ever owned. No need to turn volume up much as they just blast the music into your ears and the clarity is awesome. I owned the MDR-EX85LP prior to these and while they were okay, sound quality wasn't as good, they shorted out on me in about 10 months, and weren't as comfortable. Also, the MDR-EX85LP aren't as good a deal for the price either. Spend the extra $20 and get the MDR-EX300, you won't regret it. If these headphones (MDR-EX300) are this awesome I can only imagine what the MDR-EX500LP and MDR-EX700LP sound like. Too bad I can't afford to spend $299 to find out :).
My only wish is that when purchasing replacement cushions give me 4 sets of medium for 8.99 not SS, S, M, L

Happy, I Guess
I am a little disappointed. These earphones sound great. However, on the Sonystyle website, the earphones are advertised with a frequency response range from 4-28000 Hz. The packaging on the ordered set noted a range of 5-24000 Hz. I imagine the difference might be inaudible, but I ordered set based on the Sonystyle.com advertised specs.
