Stay Tuned With Sony

The MDR-RF855RK are a pair of over-ear headphones from 2006 and created by Sony. Considering how they popularised compact casette players with their Sony Walkman selection, audio has always been a part of their company DNA and it obvious in all their products. Wireless ones don't have additional nuts and bolts like wires, therefore they tend to be lighter. This compactness also renders them more comfortable to use primarily. Done with the chatter on your way to work? The closed back design of the MDR-RF855RK keeps it all out due to its passively dampening ear pads and allows for a peaceful ride. Given all that, the MDR-RF855RK is designed for TVs.

Music Can Heal Everything

The extent of bass, mids and treble are communicated by the word frequency response. The greater the range, superior the proficiency to reach various frequencies. Yet you should keep in mind that a bigger range does not certify delightful audio quality. The MDR-RF855RK can go as low as 20 Hz and as high as 20.000 Hz. It is a pedestrian spectrum that should please most end users, but connoisseurs might need something else. The kind of fitting is yet another high-priority characteristic that has to be given a rundown of, so let's touch on it a bit. The cups fully enclose the ears and doesn't let ambient noise to pass through much. This way, you don't disturb people around you with whatever you're listening to and can't hear them much either.
