From your last list the 10Hz-25kHz is the best frequency response, it simply means the headphones are capable of a lower bass response at 10Hz and a higher treble response at 25Hz so the the lower and higher the two numbers are respectively the better the frequency response which theoretically at least means better sound.

If you are not buying other products at the same time to defray shipping costs, you are not going to save any money buying these online.

And, in my long experience with headphones and other products -- given a choice of relatively equal prices and specs -- ALWAYS choose Panasonic over Sony. Sony has good technical specs but their products are implemented in the cheapest manner and usually have a shorter life expectancy than Panasonic.

In the case of headphones/earbuds their wires are probably going to lose continuity within a couple of months if you use them in any active way.
