So a win win. EDIT: So they sent me a replacement pair when I requested one through Amazon, so thats cool. Love the noise cancelling and sound this provides. I tried placing the screws in the top section first and either the nut is too far in for the screw to reach or the screw just isn?t long enough. The case seems very durable and I love The carabiner for the case. They break while putting your EarPod wires through. I had to remove my hard protective cover to get them on. Until I started hearing the volume level fluctuate. One saving grace is that it supports playback over WiFi which has much larger bandwidth than bluetooth. There is Steve riding his bike.
