For this reason, I am deducting one star and giving a 4-star rating. ?Very poor quality! My second pair , I wear these everyday while working , and in attics and crawlspaces the sound is good they fit amazing, they dont fall off and dont hurt my ears , the only reason I had to buy another pair was I accidentally ran over my old ones, and the still Worked lol but the plastic was broken and figured better get some more The remote paired with my Note 9 quickly and easily, spent the day playing with this, and all worked fine. Usually I dont care for chinese products, but this one met and exceeded my expectations A bungee cord was used to secure the front tire of the bike that was placed in position closest to the spare tire to keep it from moving and interfering with the outside bike. Seriously Amazon???? Is there no quality control??????? Even though the sound stage does not sound as wide as my semi open headphone (and it should be that case, as semi open can will give a wider feel to it) it gives adequate space, and it doesn’t sound “airy”The audio quality of MDR 1000x is fantastic and natural sounding, the amplification of the 3 different section is equal, none of them took the centre stage, and they sound equal, balanced with a flatter frequencies response albeit it is titled towards the direction of less warmth. But thats a network issue, I think. They cup your ear nicely and you cant hear anything else around you.
