I am not a fan of earbuds, so I would have to say that the one brand of headpones that I can trust is Sony. I have purchased many different kinds of headphones and I have to say for being small and compact these are well worth the price. The only downside that I can think of is that the cord is way too long, it is not necessary. Other than that, its a great product that delivers great sound.
 Mediocre sound meets uncomfortable design November 1, 2005

I ordered 2 pairs, black/orange for myself and silver/green for my wife, as replacements for our ipod earbuds (yes, we are yuppies).
I have to say, the MDQ-Q23LP look really cool, as you can probably tell by looking at them online. However, that's where the positive aspects end. They are physically uncomfortable. I made sure I put them on right. I can see how I could eventually get used to the jabbing behind the ear, but why should I. What I could never get used to is the flat sound. I was not expecting studio quality out of this design in this price-range but I was neither expecting the 2-can, 99-cent store, flatness. Playing with the EQ on the ipod helped somewhat, but not very much.
Finally, I can't stand it when I can hear people's music through their earphones over the subway noise, 12 feet away. I don't mean the tsk-tsk-tsk or an occasional sax. I mean when you can actually hear the lyrics. I think MDQ-Q23LP is one of those headphones. I did all sorts of sound tests and even at half the volume (much too quiet for my taste) they were extremely noisy on the outside. Again, I was not expecting the type of sound isolation you get out of earbuds or the noise-cancelling headphones, but give me a break... these babies give the term "sharing music" a new meaning. I'll let my wife deside about her pair, but I'm sending mine back. Too bad, they look great (hence 2 stars).
