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.

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

quality and comfort.
Noise Attenuation
Noise isolation earbuds (Included: Small, Medium, and Large) not only provide an outstanding fit,
