Sony Mdr Zx310Ap Wired Headset With Mic

I am again grateful to Sony for releasing this product. It's an enjoyable experience. I had the NW ZX-507 previously but the larger screen & updated form factor of the NW-ZX707 make it feel like more than just an upgrade to that player but in a different class. Sound I do not use IEMs, I use headphones. I tried this with the Sony MDR-H600A (Wired to 4.4MM Balanced - Sounds great), the Sony MDR-Z7M2 (Wired to 4.4MM Balanced, these are 70MM - required about 90 on the volume but it works with this device). Master & Dynamic MW65's on Bluetooth. With all of those, this device sounds excellent. Tried a few genres, Jazz, vocal & EDM genres. I would like to see in a software update a few DSPs (or at least presets for the equalizer) Battery Life I can't imagine getting the full 20 hours, but in the 12 days since I've had this I haven't run out of battery during the day. What I have seen is that using the 3rd party music app (i.e. Youtube Music / Spotify) will use more battery than the stock music app. There is a setting to restrict background operations because if you install 3rd party apps then those could consume battery. Screen I like the screen when playing Youtube music, it looks good. You can't compare it to a phone because it has it's own look. Size It's a bigger/heavier device than a smartphone. Feels solid. Conclusion This is for someone who wants a dedicated music device & has a collection of HiRes music or uses a HiRes streaming service such as Qobuz. I personally have owned devices from other manufactures & would recommend Sony because it just works better. An example would be how a competitor's device's WiFI was slow because it did not work with 5G or how their bluetooth didn't have enough distance. These are things that just work correctly on the Sony players.

The adapter works great with Sony MDR-ZX110AP headphones w/inline mic.

This is the second one I have bought. I have the Sony MDR-7510 also. You can't go wrong with this one.

Allowed me to use my headset with mic.

We use this headset with our Sony digital wireless lav kit. We use it during instruction of Tai Chi and Kung Fu. This requires a lot of body movement while talking. A lapel mic can sometimes pick up noise during movements from clothes etc. this was supposed to be a solution to that problem. Unfortunately the boom for the mic is too short. Putting the mic in an awkward position which sometimes cuts out. For the money maybe I shouldn't complain but results are what matter to me. I may return it and get a version costing around $400 that looks adjustable in boom length. Hopefully that will work. B&H has by the way been a pleasure to work with.

I use these earpads with rather old Sony MDR-V6 headphones. I have found them to be very comfortable.

I use MDR 7506 headset for recording and the sound is spectacular. A friend gave me one of these headsets about 5 years ago and the ear isolation foam had deteriorated from years of use. I replaced the foam ear piece and they still sound great. This time I bought a new 7506 and they sound better than the 15 old 7506. I am very pleased.

Great product for this price and I found that its actually better then the Sony MDR-7506

I will start off by saying I went from a HyperX Cloud Alpha S (wired) headset to these... The transition of sound is different and takes time getting used to. The headset is heavier than most, however hasn't given me any issues. The cushions can get warm, however can easily be replaced by the Wicked Cushions. The sound is great and the options with the EQ's are endless. In all, I believe this is a great headset for any gamer, music, or movie lover!

Fantastic headset. nice update to an already nice mic.
