Coming from my G403 with a (maybe not even) 1 DVD LOD, the difference was noticeable ? not bad, but not great. I was very pleased when this item arrived. you can set them up the same and do chest. Frequently rebooting routers, extenders. I havent worn them while raining, only after. Im thoroughly satisfied with the item itself and consider it it good value for the money. I wear a size 5 and each box holds 2 pairs of shoes or 8 pairs of flip flops (put away for the winter). (so you can select from two types of music). I can easily lock & unlock them with the toe of my shoes (fourteens). You could not rely on this headphone for critical mastering - though I do use them as a ?speaker check? when I?m away from my studio.
