That is very disappointing as my old shure psm300 did. The fact thats its stayed on and hasnt broken is terrific. The leafy artificial plants that wind around the shelves makes it look really beautiful as well. Throw away those annoying, cheap earbuds and just get this. *not sure if it was because I already added kexts when trying the dongles, or if it just simply works. I prefer this type of bass. They were a little tight when i went to put them on so I untied the laces and loosened them up. The first one i bought came damaged via UPS - looked like a forklift tine speared it. Most of all it has allowed me to Organize my kitchen cabinet. They fit well the only issue I have is that when you flip the band forward it seems to buckle the top of the shoe so I have to keep them in 4 wheel drive or else they don?t fit as well.
