Sony MDR-EX85SL


Type: Single 13.5mm Dynamic
Spec: 16Ω (@1kHz) | 5Hz~ 24kHz | 105dB SPL | 6g
Cord Style: J-cord. Two pieces, 0.50m + 1.00m
Mini Jack Style: Gold plated L style, normal build.
Eartips Used: Single flange
Packaging: N/A (OEM package)
Build Quality: 4/5 (Nothing special)
Accessories: 4/5 (Still looking for the same old shirt clip)
Isolation: 3/5
Microphonics: 3/5
Comfort: 4/5 (Weird angle of the earpiece)
Soundstage: 3/5 (fair soundstage)
Sound Quality: 3/5 (warm, not particularly detail but acceptable, slightly muddy mid, bass lacks depth and quality)
Value: 3/5 (Low street price gives it a fair value)
Remark: EX85 is about the same level as CX300 in SQ, but different in sonic character. CX300 has bloated bass and treble while lack good body mid; EX85 has good mid but lack good detail and bass depth. Like the CX300, it can serve as a good backup pair since the street price is reasonable, but it isn't 'monitor' level SQ like Sony claims.

The treble parade would have been the most perfect moment of my footballing life, but for the two people standing behind me, clearly already plotting their next move. See the link below for more info.
