It is now a staple for me. Haven?t installed my Thule kayak mounts on it yet. My current wireless headphones: Airpods Gen1 (I lost one earbud which is why I bought the Anker); Sony WI1000X which I use for air travels. Then I added the ear tags and for me that was too much background noise suppression and also if you push the ear cups on your ear, they create suction on your ear that annoyed me and made my inner ear feel like I was climbing to a cruising altitude of 30,000 feet which isnt my cup of tea while been a little sound whore but each to their own, but with the standard ear tags they are great and they also breathe a new lease of life into my 4 year old set of A40s which is good for the wallet. This is the first time using it and it was a real change from what I used before. Secondo me gli ingegneri AKG avrebbero dovuto realizzare i pads con uno spessore piu basso, in modo che il timpano fosse qualche mm più vicino al trasduttore. My grandma has difficulty putting shoes on and tying laces so these are perfect to prevent slipping around the house. And item was authentic . Thanks I really liked the product butd slice the template but still I still use I am satisfied with my purchase I simply see no reason you arent allowed to listen to music at the same time you are charging.
