help Sony MDR-XB80BS FAQ
What makes the Sony MDR-XB80BS different from ordinary workout earbuds?
The MDR-XB80BS uses Sony's EXTRA BASS tuning and a dynamic driver to emphasize low frequencies. Its closed-back fit and silicone earpads help keep the sound focused during exercise.
Are the Sony MDR-XB80BS wireless or wired?
They are Bluetooth sports earbuds with a behind-the-neck design, so they do not need a cable connected to a phone. They were made for portable listening rather than home hi-fi equipment.
What kind of music suits the MDR-XB80BS?
The boosted bass works especially well for electronic music, hip-hop, pop, and other tracks built around kick drums and sub-bass. Listeners who prefer a flat studio mix may find the EXTRA BASS profile too strong.
Are the MDR-XB80BS suitable for running?
Yes, the ear hooks and water-resistant sports design were intended to keep the earbuds secure during workouts. They are better suited to active use than Sony's conventional loose-fitting earbuds.
