I dont always want to transfer the contents of my store bottles, since they always have way more than the little bottles most racks that come with them can accommodate. The sound stage is slightly smaller than 598s, but were talking a marginal difference. I wear a womens size 9. Four stars because its not as stiff and rigid as I was hoping for, a bit wobbly but overall still ok. It even tells me when the line is muting and unmuting. Im a huge music fan. However, you can see through this hoodie. As I don’t have the original earbuds to compare I did take some photos of the cases. Also, not super crazy about the sparkle. There is one minor and subtle thing I did notice with these: sometimes I have to fiddle the volume up or down just a slightest hair to get a song to sound at its best balance-wise.
