Enjoy Crystal Highs and Deeper Bass in a Smaller Body with the
Latest In-Ear Headphones from Sony
MDR-XB70AP
(ASIA PACIFIC, 04 March 2014) – To help achieve quality sound in a compact size, Sony has
specially developed new 12mm driver units for its latest in-ear headphones, capable of
delivering the same level of acoustic sensitivity that has become synonymous with Sony.
Utilising neodymium magnets for powerful sound and encased in a metal housing to prevent
any unnecessary vibrations, the EX650AP, EX450, XB70AP and XB50AP in-ear headphones all
feature a tangle-free serrated cord and are worn laterally for greater comfort and stability.
The new Extra Bass XB70AP and XB50AP In-ear headphones are ideal for music lovers who
like their songs loud and with a heavy beat. Featuring an all new Powered Bass Duct for mindblowing extra bass performance, the headphones come packaged with hybrid silicone rubber
earbuds that minimise audio leakage while maximising comfort.
