The XBA-1VP contains one full range driver unit, whereas the XBA-2VP has a woofer added into the mix to deliver high sensitive accurate frequencies with a rich bass, making vocals clearer for the discerning listener.<\/p>\n<p>Both headphones were designed to block off acoustic sound to reduce ambient noise and sound leakage by utilising a doubled layered housing casing. The XBA-1VP uses Liquid Crystal Polymer and the XBA-2VP possesses a magnesium inner housing to ensure a smooth surround sound with a clear and distinct mid-high range. The special ABS material used for the outer housing in both headphones prevents any unwanted distortions and vibrations.<\/p>\n<p>Sydney Lee, Assistant General Manager, Personal Entertainment Division, Sony Electronics Asia Pacific, said: \u201cWith the new XBA-1VP and XBA-2VP, mobile phone users can now enjoy the crisp, clear audio that the XBA series delivers while enjoying the convenience of hands-free conversations on their phones.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The XBA-1VP and XBA-2VP headphones will be available in Asia Pacific from May 2012.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\u00a0###<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Sony Electronics Asia Pacific Pte.
