More recently, adapters actually work to suppress sounds from the iPhones speakers. Soprano and contralto vocals sound nice and clear, without that "muddy" sound that cheap phones give that dont have enough high-frequency response. Will order again from this sellar FIT:The ear-hooks on these buds create a great fit around my ear and I have never had one fall out while I’m on a run or doing a HIIT workout. I have a gold pair of the otbt and love them and wanted another color but the price was a little out of my budget for the second pair. I actually prefer this way as I can put it to the corner of the room, and its fast and easy to deploy. I put about 10 scrub pants, and about the same amount of tops on it, AND was still able to clip it up so it wasnt sticking out. After using for a few hours today, I immediately ordered the HyperX Cloud base model for $60 and I am reluctant to ever try a JBL product again. I like to listen to books on tape, and wanted a waterproof speaker so I could listen to them while I was in the shower without worrying about damaging the speaker. I guess I will be going back to my old crocs for cushion.
