Sony Presents Four New Models Of High-Quality Studio Monitor Headphones
Ideal for music professionals, recording artists, audiophiles and more, Sony's new studio monitor series headphones offer consumers the highest sound quality at a variety of prices.
Sony's Studio Monitor Series consists of four new models: the MDR-Z1000 and MDR-ZX700 over-ear headphones, and the MDR-EX1000 and MDR-EX600 earbuds.

Sony MDR-Z1000
Designed to meet high-quality audio demands, the flagship MDR-Z1000 headphones and MDR-EX1000 earbuds utilize a magnesium housing and a liquid crystal polymer (LCP) film diaphragm to produce highly accurate sound. LCP film is an extremely rigid material, allowing sound to pass through free of any distortion.
Both high-end headphones also feature an advanced noise isolation design for excellent attenuation of ambient noise. For a comfortable fit, the MDR-Z1000 model has pressure-relieving, urethane-cushioned earpads and the MDR-EX1000 model has hybrid silicone rubber ear buds and a convenient over-the-ear cord style. Further, the MDR-Z1000 has a detachable, single-sided cord.
Sony's Studio Monitor Series consists of four new models: the MDR-Z1000 and MDR-ZX700 over-ear headphones, and the MDR-EX1000 and MDR-EX600 earbuds.
With the same feel as the higher-end units, the MDR-ZX700 headphones and MDR-EX600 earbuds feature noise isolation technology and a secure, comfortable fit. To reproduce studio-quality sound, the MDR-ZX700 model has large 50 mm drivers and the MDR-EX600 earbuds have Sony's unique multiple diaphragm design. These features prevent unwanted resonances and ensure both high audio resolution and distortion-free sound reproduction.
