characteristics.

Double Layer Housing
It’s in the details… A special, high strength magnesium inner housing provides necessary rigidity
for smooth frequency response, while an ABS outer housing suppresses vibrations for clear mid-
high range sound reproduction.
Wearing Comfort
The smaller size of the Balanced Armature (BA) driver allows an improved fit inside the ear for
better, long-term comfort. This attenuates outside sounds better than headphones with Dynamic
drivers, resulting in a superior listening experience.
Noise Blocking Design
Sony
®
XBA-Series Earbuds provide 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, allow for 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 utilize pressure relieving urethane foam to further reduce ambient noise.
