Very good, but short cord

Bottom Line:

Comments about Sony Sony Fontopia Stereo Headphones:

These headphones produce excellent sound and stay in place pretty well. Kind of slippery when you sweat. I'd be completely satisfied except the cord is about 6 inches shorter than cords on my other similar headphones.

Comments about Sony Sony Fontopia Stereo Headphones:

The Sony MDRED21LP headphones provide very good audio with a slightly laid-back sound. Unlike most earbuds, they have plenty of bass.

They provide limited isolation from outside noise. This is important for runners. Also, they stay in the ears fairly well.

Although not important to me, the cable seems a bit longer than most.

Comments about Sony Sony Fontopia Stereo Headphones:

Very good sound for the price (I paid [$] and have since seen them online for less) but awkward insert design can be uncomfortable. Sound quality is nearly as good as my Sennheiser MX 90 buds which were considerably more expensive.

Comments about Sony Sony Fontopia Stereo Headphones:

Great price and very good quality. I did my research on a well known consumer guide and these were as highly rated as a pair several times the price. [...] Everyone should have a pair of these since if you lose them you'll be out less than [$], depending on where you bought them. I recommend [...] for price.

I bought one set each for my teenage sons, both as replacement for i-pod OE. They both are very happy, a hard task to achieve. My youngest responds less to my questions when they are on as he can hear less ambient sound. mmmmh!

Third time i get those, cant get better sound quality for the price! Each time they last me about a year. Never broke on their own, the ear buds wear out and i torn the cord once (thats hard to fix on little things like that). Overall great highs and deep bass, nice isolation too ))

Comments about Sony Sony Fontopia Stereo Headphones:

These earbuds are very comfortable and wearable for an extended period of time. I have tried many different styles and this is my favorite so far. I haven't tried running in them, but I have no doubt they would stay in my ears if I did. Also, the sound is very good. For the price, I'd buy them again.
