Thumb-sticks are quick and feel fairly friction-less. Its now more comfortable to wear the wire under my chin instead of around my neck but they still dont stay in the ear. I?m a sound engineer so I?m really picky about quality and these are just flat out great. I normally wear a 7 and a half but ordered an 8 because my feet are slightly wider, they fit perfectly and the comfort is unsurpassed. I was so sure that the entire thing was going to fall forward on me during my first attempt at a pull-up. I was so excited to get this in, but as I was putting it all together I noticed that there was no hole to attach my tricep rope. Very thin does not keep ur feet warm at all! Microsoft makes it difficult to acquire their adapter, and it?s very poorly made. Signature is easy to listen to for long periods and has a realistic sound stage and good vocal clarity. Check out the picture if you dont believe me.
