Im not sure if this review will reflect that I purchased the 8 or the 8. POR EL MOEMNTO TODO BIEN. The JBL is definitely louder than other speakers for its size, its compact, and the sound quality is pretty good. If you need comfy but supportive shoes with a good footbead contour, these have it, without being an "orthopedic shoe". c; )Quick note: I did a quick test on my phone as well. I have no issue with the seller. His only grievance is that they make his feet sweaty without socks but he has just started wearing socks with them which really isnt bad since our house is freezing! It went together very easy, and holds the wine bottles without question. No breaking in needed. This size 10 fits me perfectly.
