      These are just a gimmick, which bose fans will fall for. Just like the 1 St gen airpods , the practicality and the performance at that price is absolute zero. If you are paying 200 + dollars for these they should atleast pump out descent base. Better to stick to sub 200 dollar audiotechnica and shure IEMs , if you are an audiophile.
