New design: comfortable and secure fit in the ear canal. Miniature speakers with balanced anchor technology: clear and crisp sound across the entire frequency range. Minimal sound leakage and high level of noise isolation: listening to music is not disturbed by external noise, and people around you can’t hear your music. Color: black or white.
New from Sony – the sleek, lightweight and comfortable XBA-C10 headphones are great for listening to music comfortably every day. Model XBA-C10 extends the range of “armature” in-ear headphones series XBA – Sony headphones with innovative technology balanced armature Balanced Armature , which allows you to radically reduce the size of the speaker compared to conventional dynamic headphones.
The ruggedly protective anchor speaker is four times smaller than the standard 13.5mm dynamic circuitry in headphones, yet is just as sensitive as it is incredibly lightweight, and delivers extraordinary clarity. Unlike regular full-range speakers, individual balanced armature speakers can be “tuned” for optimal bass, midrange or treble performance. That’s not all: the small size of the balanced-anchor speakers allows you to fit several of them into one headphone – the same principle as in hi-fi speakers, where there are separate speakers for bass, treble and midrange.
XBA Series speakers encased in a dual layer enclosure. This design dramatically reduces vibration and unwanted resonance, resulting in remarkably accurate midrange and treble reproduction.
Whatever your musical tastes are, you’ll appreciate the rich, clear sound – better than what standard headphones can provide.
Sony’s innovative balanced armature technology ensures great sound quality and fits comfortably in your ear, even when you’re listening to music on the go. The XBA-C10 miniature speakers with balanced anchor technology deliver crystal-clear delivery of vocals and instrumental music, including deep, rich bass.
Unique miniature speaker shape improves sound isolation. You hear virtually no outside noise and can fully immerse yourself in your favorite music. Sound leakage is minimized, so you won’t disturb others around you.
New XBA-C10 for greater comfort: Innovative delta shaping fits better in your ear canal. Listen to music for longer!
Available in two colors-black and white-to match the color of your MP3 player or mobile device. Fine-toothed cord avoids the perennial problem of tangled wires.
In America the new in-ear headphones Sony XBA-C10 with technology balanced anchor will go on sale in April 2013. Approximate cost of the model: 1999 Dollars.
