These stay put. Good sound for non-audiophile. No more falling out the ear buds for me. Highly recommended.
These headphones stay in my ears and sound very good.That's just what I hoped for when I bought them.
Having only one headphone working out of two, although annoying, was acceptable for my purposes. Usually, however, the other the headphone would quickly follow suit, rendering the product useless. Either the sound would cut off completely or I would get intermittent sound. After a couple of months (maybe a max of 6) of consistent use, mainly for working out, one earbud would invariably short out. There is a clear manufacturing defect. I must have gone through 7 or 8 pairs of this model in the past couple of years, and am done with them. I guess I kept replacing them because I got them for cheap and they were usually the lightest-weight most compact headphone sports headphones that would fit.The problem I ran into was always the same. Often by adjusting the position of the wire, the sound would be restored, but only if I kept the wire in a certain position manually.
The sound quality is good - not great - but is full enough to balance and complement any style of music. I've had a couple pairs blow out on me, but after a couple years of heavy wear and tear, that's to be expected. For me this is a plus - if I'm jogging, I want to be able to hear for safety reasons - cars and dogs can be a bit unforgiving if you don't they're there. I've bought these exact same headphones three times in the past 6 years - which is meant to be a huge compliment to Sony for making a great set of reasonably-priced headphones. I use them every day either in the gym or on my morning run - they never fall off or feel uncomfortable - perfect weight and design for active use. Because the headphones hang, they are kind of cradled in your ears, so they don't block out outside noises completely, like a lot of noise reduction headphones do.
BUT one of them will shutdown after few months.it's been always the same scenario for all the ones I had. The sound is nice and crisp, the grip on my ear is perfect. it would be the best. This must be my 5th or 6th headphones of this model. I like them for the gym and I have been using only them for my workout for over 3 years. If it could just last longer.
