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, as well as combined to emphasize certain
sound characteristics.
Balanced Armature Driver
Newly developed micro-size, full-range driver units deliver detailed and transparent sound
reproduction. Be it your favorite vocalist, driving bass line, piano, guitar or drum solo, hear even
the most subtle musical details with tremendous clarity. Get reacquainted with your favorite
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 mid-
high 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 fit and
improved long-term comfort.
Noise Blocking Design
Sony
®
XBA Series earbuds afford a comfortable fit that also results in significantly lower sound
leakage levels, both in or out, allowing you uninterrupted access to your music.
Secure Fit
Hybrid silicone earbuds, in 4 sizes, ensure a tailored fit that further maximizes overall sound quality
and comfort.
Noise Attenuation
Noise isolation earbuds (Included: Small, Medium, and Large) not only provide an outstanding fit,
but also utilize pressure relieving urethane foam to further reduce ambient noise.
