Non crucial listening
I use these for recreational listening. I tried a few other brands cheaper, but always come back to Sony MDR 7500 series. You hear what's there. Have always used 7506 for studio and location monitoring. Even their Lower end phones the MDR ZX series are good.

Sony MDR-7520 have amazing clarity
The Sony MDR-7250 headphones have quickly become my favorite headphones. Excellent sound replication, no colorful additions to boost bass. Just crystal clear audio. Way better for editing than my previous set of Beats Professional Studio headphones

Decent for the price
OK for utility monitors. They are smaller profile than most and we utilize them in a multi-user environment where gear is constantly being brutalized! Workable audio quality, smallish, and inexpensive!

Quality +
This set of headphones have excellent frequency response with surprisingly strong bass tones. They are reasonbly comfortable, considering the no-frills design and give a sense of quality workmanship.

cord
The cord is way to long for what I wanted it for. At the gym. It wasn't to hard to take it apart and shorten the cord though.

Adequate for the Job
I use this product to edit narration on a computer. Had a pair for at least five years and one of the plastic hinges broke, Did not see a way of ordering the part online, so I opted to re-order a pair and keep the old set for spare parts. Sound reproduction is good. Fairly comfortable for short, but not long periods of time. I'd rate it higher if Sony provided an easy way to order spare parts for this product.

Good sound for field work
These relatively small headphones have very good sound quality and they are excellent value. This is my second pair and I had no hesitation buying these to replace the 7502's that I had been using for over 10 years. I use them to monitor audio when recording video and they work well, even in noisy NYC. They are comfortable to wear for longer periods. I also use them to monitor audio when recording city sounds with my trusty Zoom H4 recorder. The ... Show More

overated slightly
I think the audio quality is great more on the brighter end side but i feel the headphones are a little too heavy for my likings and i cant see myself wearing these headphones for numerous hours unless im trying to build strength on my neck but overall its a good headphone i went ahead and exchange them for a slighter lighter headphones sony mdr7506 for a way less less price too and i use these for mixing which was the main purpose of purchasing the mdr 7520.

Love my new cans!
I'm a voice talent and audio editor, and as such, must have a set of headphones that are reliable, comfortable and reasonably priced. I've known of B&H since the mid '80's, as once of my closest friends has been buying product since the days of VHS tape. My previous set of cans stop working on one channel and when trying to get service for them or return them, I discovered that the online vendor was out of business and had in fact been a sham, se...

Like studio monitors on your head!
Man these headphones are incredible. I will forward my review with the fact that I am a professional audio engineer and music producer who spends a considerable amount of time recording live concerts and producing in tight spaces. Like many of you probably reading this review I did a lot of research a head of time to make sure I was making a sound investment into a pair of headphones that were going to work well for me. Let me tell you when they ... Show More

Low Price & High Quality Sound
I have a collection of both popular and classical music. These headphones make both types of music sound good. Detail and sound stage are very good. Acoustic music sounds natural with no exaggerated bass. The fit is very comfortable for my head and ears. Can listen for over an hour without discomfit. The price is amazing considering the high quality sound.

Natural sound, excellent sensitivity
I'm a long time user of Sony MDR-7506 for live recording of classical music, and purchased a pair of MDR-7510 headphones as a step up in comfort and fidelity. At first I was disappointed in the lack of transparency and detail compaired to the older 7506 phones. The sound was best described as boxy. Details were lacking in tutti string and choral passages. That has changed dramatically. To a certain extent, one's ear must learn to accommodate a ne... Show More

Honesty is the Best Policy
First my set up. I have a Mac Mini (2012) with the MDR-7520's connected to a Roland Quad Capture. I use a Shure SM7B and record vocals at 24 bit 192 khz using Sony Sound Forge Pro for Mac (Version 2.0). I bought these headphones because they have a frequency range that goes up to 80 kHz which is just about half of 192 kHz. I thought that this was no coincidence on Sony's part as most standard headphones go up to about 20 kHz which is about half o... Show More

My best studio (and cellphone) cans yet.
Due to their high efficiency, power handling and attainable SPL, they don't pass the European safety regulations, and are thus not available for sale over here. Slightly miffed by such well-meaning, yet rather nanny-ish, policies I decided to import a pair myself. With just barely enough padding and rather creaky joints, those searching a luxurious experience might be better served elsewhere. Potential users seeking high design to make people in ... Show More

Clear Distinct Sound
Good sounding headphones. You can clearly distinguish bass lines, mid tones and highs without it sounding muddy or thumpy.

Good Sound, Not Terribly Portable
The sound quality for the price of these is quite good. They do not fold, and the ear-cups do not swivel flat, so they're not very good for portable use such as in a laptop bag (which was what I'd hoped to use them for).

Clarity, comfort and power !!!
Excellent clarity and power, these things sound phenomenal. I'm listening to old albums that I've heard a thousand times and noticing things for the first time, like they were remastered. I have a decent pair of Audio Technicas that don't even come close, I'm officially a Sony headphone fan. Super comfy and they block out the vast majority of ambient sound, highly recommend them !

Excellent Headphones
I really enjoy these headphones for home music listening enjoyment.The sound is very immediate and powerful,but the music perspective still manages to stay out of your head.Mid-range is very rich and present,the highs are clear but not glaring.I prefer to tame the bass a bit,otherwise it is excellent.The overall build of these headphones are rather compact and streamlined.Seem to be made to last awhile,unlike the now deleted 7509,which I formerly...

Headphones for a Drummer
These are very good headphones - Isolation is very good and they are very easy to wear for long periods of time. They are quite musically transparent with very good Vocal reproduction. They seem to a lack Bass (compared to an older Sony pair that are no longer produced). The length of lead is excellent - allows much more movement that most others I came across. All things said - these are very good.

Great Field Headphones
The MDR-7502 is a mini-version of the MDR-7506. The MDR-7506 cover your ears entirely while the MDR-7502 are over the ear but do not entirely cover your ears.

Good enough for my uses
For my application in creating manufactured equipment (for sale) videos within a small department, it works quite well.

Wow
All I can say is wow. I've been using the Sony 7509 for a few years for recording/monitoring/mixdowns and this is such an upgrade, it's amazing to hear stuff I haven't been hearing! Beautiful sound throughout the spectrum, highs, lows, mids, and great clarity. It's a little tighter fit than the 7509's but so then the isolation is greater. Highly recommended.

Very worth the money!
I just bought these for video editing and have noticed a big difference between these and my old ones. It has also helped with editing audio in Adobe Audition.
