Couldnt believe they were around $15. I purchased these for my wife as she has never found an in-ear headphone that is comfortable (she has small ears). Overall a great product if you are looking to track inches invest in a thread chain. I read the reviews and made sure I had my double-sided tape ready to doubly secure the buds case in the cover until I realized a flaw. I should have ordered an 12. The Pros over the last model:- Definitely has more suction than the last model. These arent studio monitor headphones, more like just really quality pro headphones. they are comfortable. Please see the photo Ive posted for width discrepancy. Thats not what I would consider "durable".
