Sony MDR-ZX110 ZX Series Wired On-Ear Headphones Black

Sony ZX Series On-Ear Headphones

The Sony MDR-ZX110 is a lightweight wired on-ear headphone designed for everyday listening. It uses 30 mm dynamic drivers to cover a frequency range of 12 Hz to 22 kHz with a sensitivity of 98 dB/mW and an impedance of 24 ohms. The closed-back earcups help seal in sound while cushioned pads aim to provide comfort during extended sessions. The folding mechanism allows the earcups to swivel flat for compact storage in a bag.

Swivel Folding Design With Right-Angled Plug

Earcups swivel and fold flat, reducing the footprint for travel or desk storage. A 1.2 m Y-type cable resists tangles and terminates in a gold-plated 3.5 mm L-shaped stereo mini plug that fits recessed ports on phones, laptops and tablets without protruding. The right-angled connector reduces strain on the jack during daily carry. The cable length of 3.9 ft gives enough slack for portable use without excess wire.

Wired Analog Connection Limits

The 3.5 mm TRS connection delivers analog stereo audio only, so there is no built-in microphone, inline remote or volume control on the cable. Passive operation means sound quality depends entirely on the source device’s headphone amplifier and digital-to-analog converter. The 24 ohm impedance suits portable players but may not extract maximum detail from dedicated desktop amplifiers. Buyers who need wireless freedom, active noise cancellation or a detachable cable for replacement should consider other models.
