Very good for jazz and acoustic, but if you only listen to hip-pop and rock, you may not find MDR-1A very exciting. Thats a problem because I bought them for house slippers and I like to only use slippers inside my house. We used it to load up all the pillows and sleeping bags for a weekend camping trip and it made the trip so much more comfortable not having those bulky items in the car with us and knowing that those items would be safe. 75? apart, and so I make two new level holes in the wall, drill them in, after measuring at least 3 times. Slippers arrived on time and in good condition. As I am a tropical person and love to go out bare feet, going with a Birkenstock is perfect. Love these pjs for the summer. I drive with 1 10ft long board and 1 8ft foam board strapped to my small honda civic all the time. ) super happy client! Not my kind of humor.
