I had to take my AirPods and cell phone out of the case before putting on the base. In the past I used a set of extra cushy ball of foot pads heels (you can get them just about anywhere they sell shoes). Would have given it 4 stars. They are difficult to get into smaller shoes. The carrying case it comes in is nice and holds everything neat and tidy. Audio wont be audiophile level, dont expect that at this price point, but be ready to receive an immersive audio experience,clarity and bass. Very nice and god quality, looks like official playstation merchandise, wish if the cable little longer, but you can but a longer one Love, love my new headphones. RUNNING-IN : I just purchased a second set of MT5’s, so I had the luxury to directly compare brand-new for ‘burnt-in’. I wouldnt order them again.
