The over-ear fit and comfort are fantastic for me. The only downside is the little blue charging light ? SO BRIGHT! They definitely work I can no longer hear my girlfriends nagging. I went with this one because of the great reviews and received it about a week ago. We are on our second pair and he?s now in third grade. Im currently searching for a reason behind this mystery. I bought these online for the convenience, but I wasnt expecting such poor quality. I purchased these as a substitute and I am disappointed. Thats damning a bit by faint praise for a pair of $150 headphones, but its pretty much a direct result of being able to hear the world around you. But, over the long haul I am SO disappointed.
