These Sony Sports water-resistant headphones are designed for active lifestyles, standing up to rain, snow, and occasional splashing, with yellow sports styling. The Fontopia in-ear design fits snugly, yet comfortably within the ear, eliminating the headband so you can enjoy music while exercising, skating, or dancing. The Sony Acoustic Twin Turbo circuitry uses sound chamber and ducts for improved efficiency, and gets high sonic output from your portable stereo. Thinner housing and a slim duct work together for a snugger, more comfortable fit. Less
The sound of the K 240 M (for "monitor") is tipped toward the bass, with recessed highs and not as much detail as newer models. Plus, at 600 ohms, they're tough to drive.... More

Great For Casual Users But True Music Junkies Will Be Disappointed Sony Fontopia Ear Buds

Pros Retractable cord, plastic weather safe case, extra pair of ear covers.
Cons Cheap case, connections to earpieces break after a few months.
Recommended it? Yes



When is comes to portable audio, picking out a good set of headphones is just as important as what you are playing your CD's or cassettes on. You can have a $200.00 piece of equipment but with cheap headphones, the music will sound pretty horrid. I generally go through a set of headphones... Read full review »

Pros Precision highs and lows, crystal clear clarity, comfortable.
Cons Perhaps a little pricey for the average audiophile.
Recommended it? Yes

I remember the very first time I used a pair of ?professional? headphones. I was at the house of a self-professed audiophile and I grudgingly slid the monstrosities over my head. Up until this point in my musical life, I had only used headphones that came pre-packaged with the half-dozen or so... Read full review »

AKG K240DF - the best reference headphones I know.

bymeatex z Aug 22, 2004
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros The best professional reference sound.
Cons High impedance, vintage construction.
Recommended it? Yes

This review is dedicated to the one and only AKG K240DF headphones - for some reason Epinions have no distinction between several types of 240 series' models.

AKG brand name is usually associated with hi-end studio microphones and headphones. While they still produce variety of lower-cost... Read full review »
