amazon Sony STH30 reviews
Design
Right from the first glance, few could deny that is a product STH30 design influenced a lot from Apple EarPods are sold with iPhone 5 / 5s / 5c. Although he belongs to the line as the earbud headphones white headphones each accompanied countless generations of iPod and iPhone before it, the EarPods and STH30 are 2 holes round body and diaphragm placed in front of and behind the ear tubers. The body behind the ear tubers on STH30 made jutting straight up instead of going down to the bottom as EarPods.
While EarPods go towards design simplicity and spontaneity characteristic of Apples, STH30 bring a youthful design style but equally advanced. The diaphragm (waterproof) and the rear lid are made of tubers ears shiny metal material. Silver metal layers become quite prominent on the black plastic (the color of our products are evaluated). However, while the Play button is also made of aluminum, both the volume up and down buttons are made of STH30 soft plastic material is not only “lose sympathy” but also hard hit.
Like many products earbud headphones / in-ear other senior, STH30 use jack L-shaped to avoid damage during daily use. Part of STH30 wire is one of the cost-cutting is the most obvious: no thicker wire and also seems quite fragile.
Overall, STH30 is a beautiful and outstanding products. However, almost certainly Apple fans will compare the Sony earbud with EarPods, and Japanese companies would have to choose a better material for STH30 wire.

The first is the bass: the bass is very strong and deep STH30. The phenomenon bass “bass hero” and encroachment are common in the capital of the low price is almost never happens. One other plus point is capable of reproducing STH30 details sound pretty good in low resolution – something that even many full-size ear line also struggled doable.

The notes are rated bass guitar style “run empty” was unveiled on STH30. The bass notes of the “Apple of My Eye” (Dolores D’Riordan) is “dropped” a very natural way the length of the song, pervasive and deep.
STH30 express prelude music section of the “Incident” (Collapse Under The Empire) – which is a challenge that both EarPods and CX300II are insurmountable – an extremely easy way. You can “count” every note in the bass thanks Incident ability accurately reproduces both volume and height of STH30. Drums in the music stays the strength and bounce, creating rich sound vitality to the whole music scene Post Rock impressive symphony.
In all genres, Rock / Metal is probably the “strengths and weaknesses” of STH30. This does not mean that the Sony earbud fail fast music on this strong personality. Some tracks have thick guitar sound and focused on low resolution as “Sing for Absolution” (Muse), On Earth “(Samael) or” Twilight of the Thunder God “(Amon Amarth) is STH30 reproduce very strong, full of mighty tunes. the guitar notes, bass, drums and separated in most of the tracks.
