Bass addicts on tight budgets will no doubt appreciate Sonys portable and collapsible MDR-710LP headphones, but audiophiles might want to consider a warmer-sounding set ...
For a 30mm driver, these headphones offer a healthy kick you’d expect from headphones with much larger drivers and at a fraction of the weight. The universal stereo mini-plug allows for easy use between most portable audio devices.
The folding mechanism has an annoying tendency to fold up in random configurations if you place the unfolded headset aside. Also at high volumes, your audio/visual device can be heard audibly by just about everyone in your near vicinity. Most importantly, the headset’s sound is a bit on the bass-heavy side – it works for bass heavy Hip Hop, Rap, Techno, Dance, Rock, Heavy Metal, and other genres
For most applications and volume settings you’ll be pretty satisfied with the MDR 710’s healthy kick despite the minor aggravation of having the folding mechanism fold the headset at random....
The Sony MDR-710LP has a convenient and comfortable collapsible design, includes a hard carrying case, and it delivers tight, punchy bass.
The Sony MDR-710LPs 4-foot cord is too short for nonportable applications. Moreover, its treble and midrange frequencies have a more skeletal timbre than those of some phones.
Bass addicts on tight budgets will appreciate Sonys MDR-710LP portable, collapsible headphones, but audiophiles should consider a warmer-sounding set.
