Overall it started as a homerun purchase. But traveling with a brush is harder than traveling with a pick. It simply does not serve much purpose, it’s clumsy and most of all it has Microphonics, which is the annoying rustling and thumping sounds caused by the cord. I own some Sennheiser products and they are outstanding in my opinion. Heck, some people might get 99% of the user satisfaction out of a generic $5 office mouse. The JLab had really good reviews at a decent price, so perfect for what we wanted. it starts to feel heavy after some time But sometimes I leave one out so I can hear my calls come thru (working from home). If you force the things into your ear farther, then yes, they work better. If you compensate for the scale difference of the shown graphs, the sound signature is identical.
