I have the 1989 Laser Disc (yes laser disc) which was awesome for its time, the VHS and then the later dvd transfer. I can?t rave about these boxes enough. Living in Florida, I tend to wear sandals/flip ?flops just about year round (outside of work). Im aghast there are reviewers saying this longer wire IMPROVES sound quality. my issue consistently came around hour 6 when my toes started feeling smashed up against the tops. So if thats all you are looking for and cost is no issue this will work great for you. This shoe lacks comfort , compared to another brand I purchase which has soft cushioning , this shoe is very hard. So sexy. I went looking for the exact same rack but was dissapointed that they dont make them that way any more. This was really weird because it took moving my jaw unnaturally forward plus opening my mouth to hear anything clear.
