The sound quality is almost as good as the HD 598s, which was quite surprising to me. All of the mics I have purchased previously came with pretty much NOTHING. Take a while to break in, but worth the effort. Nice wood grain and well made. The magnets are still going strong. It smells like dry wood. It keeps the cords organized and keeps all electronics in one place so you dont lose anything! I have a good 20lbs of baby clothes on it and it hasnt budged. The size of the earbuds are about 2. Size aside, they are super cute and comfy!
