Very good quality but slightly uncomfortable
|Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality out of these headphones, especially when wired, is amazing however the top band is a bit too thin to be comfortable in my opinion. it felt like it dug into the top of my head too much

Cant go wrong with this line ever
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great upgrade from my xm3. I love the new design. If I had one gripe, it’d be that you cant fold them over anymore for minimal storage. But that’s not a deal breaker for me.
