Manual of product MDR-AS400EX
Editorial note
The Sony MDR-AS400EX headphones stand out for their exceptional sound quality, with a sensitivity of 103 dB and a wide frequency range from 5 to 24000 Hz, providing an immersive listening experience. Their in-ear design allows for optimal sound isolation, ideal for fully enjoying your music without external distractions. Weighing only 10 g, these headphones ensure prolonged comfort, whether for sports or during travel. However, the model has some drawbacks. The in-ear type may not suit all users, with some preferring over-ear models for increased comfort. Additionally, the lack of an integrated microphone limits their versatility, making phone calls or voice recordings difficult. Although the 1.2 m cable length is standard, it may feel short for those who desire more freedom of movement. Finally, the fact that they are wired can be a disadvantage for users who prefer wireless headphones, especially during sports activities. In terms of value for money, the product comes with a protective case and extra earbuds, which is a plus. However, safety parameters must be considered, particularly the risk of hearing damage at high volumes. Overall, the Sony MDR-AS400EX is a solid option for audiophiles seeking quality listening, despite some limitations.Score details
