Ive been really happy with other products in the Oontz line over the past couple of years so it was a big "Why didnt I think to look for earbuds before?" moment and I have been happy with the purchase. Solo las llevo usando un mes pero con mucha lluvia y están como el primer día. Optisch ist es ein hingucker. It looks nice, its comfortable and its got enough functionality for sure. I have been looking for something that I could wear around the house and in bed. There isnt much difference in the specs and Ill bet the Kinetic rides more smoothly because of the heavier flywheel. This one, however, it is a bit bigger. Tight fitting but that?s how I wanted it. I have a two pound Nady PCM-200 mic and have had no trouble with stability. ** for those who know burkinstock products- this is a filled footbed, not open- fits as a "narrow" in their products.
