My daughter (13) heard me talking about them and talking my wife into buying me one for my Nov. birthday. My wife was astounded at how excited I was to get it and my daughter said “told you so!” I was so impressed I bought myself another one, my 21 yr old son and 2 good friends one for Christmas. I’ve bought 5 now...... that should tell you how excellent these are. Now I’m wanting the new ones that will have more battery life, more bass, and the battery level indicator. Yeah, I’m hooked!!!
