Got a newer model, but this one works completely fine. The only issue is the wear damage on the faux leather as seen on the photo #2.
This is a buyer’s market for this category at the moment: at €50, the asking price sits well below the €69 25th percentile and far under the €90 median from your recent EUR comparables. That makes it a strong deal, not just a fair one.
The model is well-regarded for its effective noise cancelling, comfortable fit, and generally polished everyday sound, so there’s real value here if it’s working properly. At this price, the main upside is getting a proven travel/headphone staple for noticeably under market; I’d only press for clarity on battery health, earpad wear, and whether the charger/case are included, since those are the practical bits that matter most on a used pair.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Sony emerged from the ruins of post-World War II Japan, founded on May 7, 1946, by Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita as Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo K.K. in Tokyo's Nihonbashi district. Starting with radio repairs and Japan's first magnetic tape recorder, the duo secured transistor licensing from Bell Labs, pioneering the TR-55 transistor radio in 1955. Renamed Sony Corporation in 1958—from the Latin "sonus" for sound—the brand symbolized Japan's ascent from cheap imitations to innovative leadership, fueled by Ibuka's engineering prowess and Morita's global marketing vision.
Sony's hi-fi legacy spans headphones, amplifiers, speakers, turntables, and DACs, alongside landmark formats like the Compact Disc in 1982 and Blu-ray. Iconic products include the Walkman for portable audio revolution and Trinitron televisions, blending consumer accessibility with cutting-edge tech. Today, offerings like the Signature Series headphones and ES amplifiers target discerning listeners seeking refined soundstaging and dynamic range.
Positioned as a mid-to-high-end powerhouse, Sony commands respect among knowledgeable buyers for blending mass-market reliability with premium performance, outpacing many pure audiophile brands in innovation and value. Far from vintage relic or niche boutique, it dominates with forward-thinking engineering, holding strong market share in headphones and streaming ecosystems.
