I have another pair of Quiksilver that are very comfortable and have a softer material that fits between your toes. When I used the X5 (1st gen) and the xFit, the sound quality rivaled expensive over the ear headphones. My husband has hairy ears and it worked well on these using the lip attatchment for the flat areas and the brow shaper for the intricate bits. So, Id say that ANC is alright and depends in the environment you use the headphones in. Außerdem wirkt es optisch besser wenn der Schnitt vorne breiter ist. Buenos calcetines solo hay que tener cuidado al elegir la talla porque calzo del 28 ordené medianos y me quedaron muy justos, pedí otros en talla grande y me quedaron mucho mejor. It comes with extra cushions to stick in your ears; make sure to use the ones that will make it fit you perfectly. Overall satisfied! I also have photos. they are still slight tight to get on, but this would be a necessity to hold them on which is what they do very well.
