(Change the copy and I would give these a 5! Tried the Logitec ones and that maybe a touch better with clarity but not as much of a leap from these to those then these to a standard pair of earbuds,Ill be putting these away as a backup. The only down side is that they dont cancel out noise well like other Sonys Ive used. Also since the end cap comes out Ill be using the tube to store spare inner tube with tire tools. I like the fact that it is long enough and 3 belts. The software required (an EXE download from Logitech) to use this controller fails mid install (a gray Next key). I left some low feedback and these nice guys refunded me £30 on top of what I paid baring in mind it was £125 plus customs bringing it to £143. I will be returning them though, so I cant attest to their waterproofing. On the fourth day I had these I spent the entire day in them walking all over Pompeii. Nice that they offered free returns.
