A closer look at the Sony MDRXB55AP

The sound quality delivered by this in-ear headset is superb. The reason for such crystal clear, balanced audio is the inclusion of two 12mm neodymium-magnet drivers and Bass Duct technology. The drivers are slightly larger than what you'd usually find in similar earbuds, which contributes to more power, allowing for a broader frequency range. The Bass Duct tech takes care of the low end, and if you're a bass fan, you'll want to check out this product.
