Theyre way livelier and more intense than a lot of headphones. But thats very manageable. I have pretty narrow feet and can never find sandals that stay on my feet and these were perfect. I didnt even think to look to see if a pair of headphones were compatible with my computer, how ridiculous that theyre not! These are the second pair I?ve bought and they will always be my slipper supplier. I am 53", 130 lbs, size 4/6, and bust size is 34 B. I guess its OK for the money. I am IMPRESSED! *The stacked heel gives good support. Great for any use: outdoor, indoor.
