Sound Story
Compared to conventional Dynamic drivers, Balanced Armature drivers produce a broad
and even frequency response with notable vocal clarity. SONY® Balanced Armature drivers
are tuned for higher or lower frequency response and combined to emphasize certain sound
characteristics.
Balanced Armature Driver
Newly developed micro-size driver units (full-range + woofer) reproduce smooth and clear vocals
and rich, powerful bass. Get reacquainted with your favorite music…
Made for iPod®/iPhone®/iPad®
Full integration for iPod®, iPhone® and iPad®.1 The in-line remote gives you volume and track
controls (Play, Stop, Next/Prior) for iPod, iPhone or iPad, and the built-in microphone makes it easy
to take calls through it all.
VoiceOver support
The simple press of a button activates VoiceOver mode where the iPod® states the name of the
currently playing song or playlist (on enabled devices).1
Double Layer Housing
A special, high strength magnesium inner housing provides necessary rigidity for smooth
frequency response while an ABS outer housing suppresses vibrations for clear mid-high range
sound reproduction.
Wearing Comfort
The smaller size of the Balanced Armature (BA) driver allows a design that creates a better t
inside the ear. This attenuates outside sounds better than headphones with Dynamic drivers,
resulting in a superior listening experience.
Noise Blocking Design
Sony® XBA-Series earbuds aord a comfortable t that also results in signicantly lower sound
leakage levels both in or out, allowing you uninterrupted access to your music.
Secure Fit
Hybrid silicone earbuds, in 4 sizes, allow for a tailored t that further maximizes overall sound
quality and comfort.
Noise Attenuation
Noise isolation earbuds (Included: Small, Medium, and Large) not only provide an outstanding t,
but utilize pressure relieving urethane foam to further reduce ambient noise.
