Features
Sound story
Compared to conventional Dynamic drivers, Balanced Armature drivers reproduce a smooth,
broad and even frequency response with notable vocal clarity. Sony® Balanced Armature
drivers are tuned for higher or lower frequency response and then combined to provide specic,
tailored response.
Balanced Armature Driver
Newly developed micro-size, full-range driver units deliver detailed and transparent sound
reproduction. Get reacquainted with your favorite music.
Flexible
Works with most smartphones, including phones with Android™ OS, iPhone® and Blackberry®.
The supplied connection cable with four-conductor gold-plated stereo mini plug adapts the XBA1VP for use with most smartphones.
Mic’d to go
Take calls on the go with the in-line microphone. Answer calls easily while your phone stays safely
tucked away. When the conversation is over, go right back to enjoying your music.
Double Layer Housing
It’s in the details… A special, liquid crystal polymer inner housing provides the necessary rigidity
for smooth frequency response, while an ABS outer housing suppresses vibrations for clear midhigh frequency sound reproduction. The result is rich audio performance.
Wearing Comfort
The ultra-compact design of a Balanced Armature (BA) earbud allows for a natural in-ear t and
improved long-term comfort.
Noise Blocking Design
Sony® XBA-Series earbuds aord a comfortable t that also results in signicantly lower sound
leakage levels, both in or out, allowing you uninterrupted access to your music.
Secure Fit
Hybrid silicone earbuds, in 4 sizes, allow for a tailored t that further maximizes overall sound
quality and comfort.
Noise Attenuation
Noise isolation earbuds (Included: Small, Medium, and Large) not only provide an outstanding t,
but utilize pressure relieving urethane foam to further reduce ambient noise.
Carrying Pouch
A carrying pouch is included to keep your headphones protected while traveling.
