Disappointed in how long they lasted
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is amazing and it blocks out bass music better than putting in ear plugs. HOWEVER, after a little less than 2 years they started to develop feedback from somewhere. When I put them on the desk and pick them back up I get what sounds like feed back from a mic being too close to a speaker so it's very ear piercing. I've tried unplugging them and plugging back in but that didn't fix it. So I just have to wait till they stop which they eventually do but until recently they never did it. And for the price I paid I would expect them to last at least 5 years or more before having issues. So I will NOT buy them again.
