Also, these slippers dont have a silicon-like bottom, so they make a noise when I walk on our wood floors. That having been said, Ive also tried Sennheiser Momentum HD1 Over-Ear/ANC (same price), Bluedio Victory and Bluedio Vinyl, Bose QC35, Sony MDR1000X to name a few of the more prominent contenders. THIS IS A GOOD SPEAKER ! And yes its plugged into the outlet and multiple outlets have been tried. This wouldve ensured it stayed together, and potentially be somewhat extra protection. After recently shattering my Apple Watch, I was on the lookout for a protector for my new one. Not pleased at all! t position under my opposit arm, so I can reach across with my right hand. Broken Would not recommend!
