Best Price: $19.99
These headphones have a number of cool advantages. The clip-on style design eliminates the headband and makes tangled hair a thing of the past. The turning adjustment feature provides a flexible fit suitable for various-sized ears. The interchangeable black and orange headphone caps give you some color options to play with. Perfect for listening on the run! Audiophiles who demand great sound quality, but need something smaller than DJ headphones will appreciate the Sony MDR-Q23LP w.ear Stereo Headphones. With small 30 millimeter diameter, dome-type driver units and PET (generic mylar) diaphragms, your music will sound loud, clear and rich. The MDR-Q23LP driver units reproduce surprisingly-clear recorded sounds at a wide frequency range (20-24,000 Hz). These substantial, compact headphones feature neodymium magnets for greater power handling and higher frequencies. Five times more powerful than standard earphone ferrite magnets of the same size, neodymium magnets mean that the Sony MDR-Q23LP w.ear Stereo Headphones maximize energy, while keeping size to a minimum. With these advanced technological features, these headphones provide great sound in a tiny package. Sony MDR-Q23LP w.ear Stereo Headphones clip-on design was built for the fashionable audiophile on the go.

Mediocre sound meets uncomfortable design
By A3KK4HQM3Q9DY3 on 2005-11-01
I ordered 2 pairs, black/orange for myself and silver/green for my wife, as replacements for our ipod earbuds (yes, we are yuppies).
I have to say, the MDQ-Q23LP look really cool, as you can probably tell by looking at them online. However, that's where the positive aspects end. They are physically uncomfortable. I made sure I put them on right. I can see how I could eventually get used to the jabbing behind the ear, but why should I. What I could never get used to is the flat sound. I was not expecting studio quality out of this design in this price-range but I was neither expecting the 2-can, 99-cent store, flatness. Playing with the EQ on the ipod helped somewhat, but not very much.
Finally, I can't stand it when I can hear people's music through their earphones over the subway noise, 12 feet away. I don't mean the tsk-tsk-tsk or an occasional sax. I mean when you can actually hear the lyrics. I think MDQ-Q23LP is one of those headphones. I did all sorts of sound tests and even at half the volume (much too quiet for my taste) they were extremely noisy on the outside. Again, I was not expecting the type of sound isolation you get out of earbuds or the noise-cancelling headphones, but give me a break... these babies give the term "sharing music" a new meaning. I'll let my wife deside about her pair, but I'm sending mine back. Too bad, they look great (hence 2 stars).
Small & Compact

I am not a fan of earbuds, so I would have to say that the one brand of headpones that I can trust is Sony. I have purchased many different kinds of headphones and I have to say for being small and compact these are well worth the price. The only downside that I can think of is that the cord is way too long, it is not necessary. Other than that, its a great product that delivers great sound.
Awesome

I just got these headphones and i love them.... they not only look cool but have awesome sound. I mainly use my headphones at the gym with ipod works really well i can hear my music despite the gym music. Also the wire is long enough.

Happy Customer
By A2KX1DGYCJTBT9 on 2007-02-02
I am very pleased with these headphones. I got them to replace a 3 year old pair from Sony that was the precursor to this model. I still use the early model, but they are a little uncomfortable after a while. Which is why I bought this pair, once you get used to them these are quite comfortable, and they have very good audio quality. I put these through pretty tough wear and abuse and they have held up very well.
satisfied
By A22PCC09WV68XL on 2007-03-11
The sound is excellent. The wiring is better than some others I've had because it doesn't get tangled easily.
The ear clips are bent too sharply and don't fit well around the ear.
I probably would try some other product before I ordered these again...because of the fit.
