Design & Processing
Both optical and material act at first glance quality and also holds second glances that impression was. Simple, unobtrusive, no frills, timeless and very classy. Perfect for me. The ear cups can be incidentally also fold and therefore can clean up the player space.
Sound
Loud and clear. I'm not one who likes to listen to very loud music (and mostly I hear anyway audiobooks). By earcups you have a wonderful, comprehensive surround sound. In addition, the player has a button for sound enhancement, with which you can switch between different sound modes.
Comfort
I like In-ear earphones still less than earplugs. Either, they fall out of my ears or I get through the debris earache after some time. Since these earpieces are of course ideal, and indeed, you get used to the higher weight, one barely notices it. However, they are suited by the weight for jogging only conditionally. The headphones are somewhat loose with me and with faster movement he comes before love to slide. But it is not that he does is completely independent.
Format
For audiobooks rather unsuitable, since the player has no display function and you never know which track is playing. Of course, you can still listen to audiobooks, you have to pay, however, make sure to first create a corresponding playlist via the included software. Only in this way can also be sure of the correct order.
Large drawback here: The player is not audible capability, thus will not play .aax files and can not be synchronized with the Audible library.
Service
The wait staff was getting used to for me, and still I grab first time by and must in consequence take off the headphones to make the proper controls (but that is probably due to my clumsiness).
The software
Another drawback: The software is only supported by Windows systems. The installation was used to easy operation, however, is not immediately intuitive. It took a while until I found out how I best create a playlist and can be transferred to the player.
Conclusion:
I would recommend the player to all those who listen mainly go in subway & Co. Music. When jogging or cycling you just have to test to see if he it sits firmly enough. Positive is the way that you can connect additional devices such as smart phones to the headphones (which I have no use for it himself - still carry around a device what?). Needs improvement when it comes to audiobooks, but otherwise really a great device.
