The mute tone when unmuting and muting are different from each other and Ill probably get used to it with time but they dont strike me as an intuitive "on/off" type sound where I can quickly tell if Im muted or not. It doesnt get so hot that you worry about leaving it unattended, and it dries everything perfectly. Great quality and look for the price but I would recommend going down a size. I can?t wear them without irritation and I?ve worn them for two weeks now and can?t be returned! These shoes are way too tight for my liking! For now, Ill be extremely happy with my XSound Go for a little desktop music. Hace aprox. Ive worn them over a dozen times and so far its still a problem Wasnt to hard to put together. The sounds is great, they fit very well and are super light so they dont feel uncomfortable at all!
