The editors didn't like
They don't fold flat for compact storage
No included headphone jack adapters
Extensive use of plastic in construction
Overear design is bulky

The on
Ear design doesn't lend itself to heavy bass presentation
And the soft carrying case doesn't quite provide adequate protection.
Superb design, Excellent comfort, Good bass management, overall sound quality
Some mid-range thickness, tame treble, Expensive
The best bit about the top-quality £300 Sony MDR-1R Prestige headphones is how easily they skip between roles as a portable and at-home pair. They look great, feel great and sound great too. You can get similar of better sound quality for less money, esp...
Amazingly comfortable, Impressive, versatile sound quality, Large ear cups, Good looking design, Very reasonable price
You may need a headphone amp
Sony has created something very special with the MDR-1Rs. These are possibly the most comfortable headphones I've ever worn, while the large, incredibly soft ear cups completely surround your ears ensuring a decent degree of sound isolation. The soundsta...
Eventually very comfy, great sound, lots of mid-high frequency range 'snap' yet enough bass to deliver a rounded sound, attractive design
Exposed drivers can touch against ears, bass doesn't rumble as much as the higher-spec versions, not necessarily perfect for on-the-go listening, Sony Store price is too steep, really low frequencies not as impactful as might be expected

Comfy as anything I've ever tried, Great mids, Great isolation
Warm
Despite the price, I would very seriously consider this as my next audio purchase.Headphones are a key part of any audiophile's arsenal. They are the bridge that connects the listener to the music to which they intend to listen. As such, it's always a pr...
Reproduction des graves peu percutante, Matériaux utilisés
Un casque audio qui a le mérite d'être bien fini, confortable et de belle qualité audio. Il reste toutefois derrière les pointures du marché, principalement à cause de matériaux basiques et d'un bas de spectre un peu en retrait. La cinquième étoile n'étai...
Le MDR-1R de Sony est vendu 249 euros. Un tarif élevé mais largement justifié d'après nous, notamment grâce à la présence de deux câbles différents, dont l'un avec micro, pour les produits Apple. Le son est bon, bien qu'un peu fort sur les basses. Il fau...
