It also makes it so much more comfortable in the ear with the tragus piercing which surprised me. These ones are not uncomfortable except for the straps I mentioned earlier, but not as soft as the ones I tried, perhaps because theyre still new. Honestly better than any of my razer or Logitech mice. I used to never listen to ear phones on my long bike rides because they had to be so loud as to drown out wind noise that I couldnt hear traffic. I wish the bottom were a bit thicker, though, because the surface of the bottom of the pool where I work out it extremely rough. I was looking forward to expanding the wireless speaker system using the SoundBar 700. Im a bass head so from that perspective after the burnperiod(almost 1 month daily usage) the bass increases a lot. I figured it was some air getting into n a crack or something and tried to seal every hole I could with silicone, but no luck. The ability to fold the shelves and hooks are awesome. KEEP THE BODY WEIGHT OFF THAT HEAL, ice it, do the step stretch, and put a tennis ball under your foot, stretch it out.
