For 325is owners...
Does anyone prefer comfys over bowls? I guess I like comfys because I used 80is's which came with comfys. The reason why is that the 325is are A LOT heavier than the 80i's, many know this. Seems as the comfys do not put as much stress/pressure on the ears. My comfys have a coin sized hole in the...- s4one
