If installed, it would have scratched the roof of my car. I always found the Melomania 1 the best sound, little to no EQ required. The headphones are fabulous, a nice size, big enough to fit adults. It fits perfect. That was good because I have wide feet. The case, packaging a bit unusual but of the usual Shure high quality. I understand that despite differences in culture, religion, politics, and skin color, people are pretty much the same all over the world. If you simply trace lightly with the knife in a circle about the size of the round driver in the earpiece, thats sufficient. Robeez are the best baby/toddler shoes! Although these headphones dont have quite as powerful bass as some others do, they are so much more comfortable & so much better sounding overall, they are definitely worth it if you care at all about sound quality or listen for extended periods of time.
