READ ME IF THEY DON'T FIT PERFECTLY OR YOU WANT MORE CLARITY AND BASE!!!!
Review:
Best Bluetooth headset available because of fit, sound and ability to STAY in your ears and around your head.
Headset DOESN'T bother back of neck and essentially FLOATS around your head.
MUCH better than other loose cord headsets like Jaybirds that constantly fall out. This cord if just flexible enough and not too stiff.
Sound is GREAT for this price range and can be even BETTER if you follow this 1 suggestion
1. BUY "ENDURANCE SERIES ENHANCERS SIZE 5", THEY ARE ONLY $10 FOR 2 PAIRS FROM JBL!!! Size 5 is the most common size and fits right over the stock BackBeat bud. This Enhancer bud extends the "tube" that goes into your ear canal and allows for a more secure and solid connection. This connection increases EVERYTHING from BASE to TREBLE and just overall fit. There are a few different types of "Enhancers" so you can experiment with them. In order to get them to fit over the BackBeat bud you have to cut a little slit in the back for the "loop" to go through. Honestly some of the smaller Enhancers can all out replace the stock BackBeat bud instead of modifying it but both together fits best for me. To get the cut right just line the "tube" up on both buds than mark on the Enhancer where the "loop" comes out than make a SMALL single cut slit. Put the Enhancer on top of the bud than pull the loop through, this should help make the slit bigger without causing you to make to large of a hole. IMO its worth it for $5 a piece to experiment with this. I am including a few pictures to help explain what I have done here.
Conclusion: This additional purchase/modification has turned these 9.5/10 headphones into perfect 10's for me. I love them so now I just hope they last :-)
