Thank you for checking that out! I would've gotten the MDR-1A possibly, but the issue of wind noise really didn't sit well with me
Yeeaaaahhhhh, the wind-noise issue kind of ruined the MDR-1A when it came to actual OUTDOOR use, IMO. I agree with Dweaver on that. That being said I still really enjoyed my MDR-1A whenever I was going places. . .waiting for takeout orders in restaurants, sitting in doctors' offices, going grocery shopping, etc.
Don't get me wrong. When it gets truly windy, there is still SOME wind-noise. It is just VERY MINIMAL, especially compared to the noise that the MDR-1A would get. Since Dweaver seems to be far more sensitive than me to the issue of the wind-noise (to the point of actually outright RETURNING the MDR-1A), it should be interesting to get his impressions of the 100AAP in that regard.
Btw, the flat cable really isn't too bad, guys. Sure, it's not as nice as the cables that came with the MDR-1A, but it's a lot nicer than many headphones' stock cables in this price-range, and it is also very tangle-resistant which is quite nice.
