Looking for a successor to the Sennheiser CX 350 Street II (after about 5 years has held) I wanted to find a reasonably priced in-ear headphones. The main application is the office, ergo play good sound insulation and sealing and a certain robustness is more important than perfect sound. Since I had very bad experience with a high-priced model of a brand not mentioned here, I wanted to give Sony eiine chance its predecessor had been, after all rated very good. Only the packaging left a negative impression - I wish every product and packaging designers, that he would have to open ten of these products, without being allowed to use a pair of pliers or brute force. But this still did not detract from the revision worthy hurdle first sound impression. I tested the headphones now on mobile and on the notebook via Amazon Cloud Player, and the good impression remained. Compared with the aforementioned Sennheiser and the Philips SHE 9000 I like the sound subjectively much better. So many details I have not yet been heard out, and enough "oomph" is also present, a little bass-driven than my previous headset, but what may be due to the closed characteristics. The headphones are relatively small, almost disappear in my ears, but this is by no means negative, but very pleasant appears from the comfort. The scope of supply is ok, apart from the obligatory ear adapters in different sizes is still a rather strange plastic part, which is intended for winding up the cable as shown in figure. On the sense one might argue, because the cable is on the other hand perfectly, it transmits almost no sound, no matter how hard I knock on it or let it fall on the table. The connector is angled and provides strain relief, here so far everything fits. Outside sounds are very well dimmed, definitely better than the models that I had previously. Overall, I'm thrilled, very good sound, very good cable, now I'm hoping for longevity, so far there are of course in spite of the package art full five stars.
