I also bought the phones in Japan and mine fit fine.

I have a pair of the over-the-head model that I bought in Japan before they
were available in the USA. They work really well if I hold the pads against
my ears in the proper way, but if I don't they don't really fit right, It's
like they were designed for ears with a much different configuration (hard
to explain, but the it's  like the pads swivel the wrong way from the way my
ears face. Maybe Japanese ears are shaped much differently than Caucasian
ears???)After a long period of time (4 hours), the outer part of my ear
starts to hurt from the pads trying to press them against my face.

Looks quite nice, also looks a bit bulky, how heavy are they?

MD: Sony Noise cancelling headphones

1999-09-01 Thread Michael Graves


I've been very happy with my MDR-NC10s since I bought them a couple of
years ago. You should note that SONY makes three models of NC phones;
in-the-ear (NC10s), on-the-ear, and over-the-earlike the great big
AKG circumaural headsets I once used in studio sessions.

The NC10s fit snuggly in the ear and in so doing achieve decent noise
reduction even when turned off! Turning on the active NR system I hear
a white noise "hush" which I personally find to be soothing. I should
also note that the diaphram size in the NC10s is larger than in your
typical earbud. This combined with tight accoustic coupling to the ear
canal make them one of the best headphones I've ever heard. Great low
end but very natural.
