Not sure if it is my location or what the problem is. I put them on and in no time I took them off. The kickstand is solid and has a nice wide base that does not sink into the grass. Good coverage, not too expensive They fit very snugly over my ears and the sound is clear and deep with no static or change in the quality of the sound. 3 grandsons have built these headphones. 5 wide so I got a 6 and it fits perfectly! But I?ve experienced good racks. I got so made after month 2 when I was on the third row of hooks and it was loose. I sent her a pair of these.
