Glad that you liked them and thanks for letting me know!Thanks again for all the info. Very impressed with the regular-sized, non-Pro Shokx I got last week. "They just disappear" may be the best part.
Like you, I measure 9.5" but will try the Mini, as I'd like to be able to lay on my back with them. While I'm at it, will see if I like the Pro bass response better for an extra $50. What's one more consecutive life sentence in the doghouse?
Funny about the wind noise. Normally don't notice any but definitely did on my first Shokx test ride with a headwind. Tried again without the Shokx, and lo and behold, the same wind noise had been there all along! The Shokx made it neither better nor worse — the act of testing just brought it to my attention. And now it's unnoticeable again.
Yup....I like the minis a bit better for that reason. Sure they are still behind your head if on a pillow etc.....but come winter the minis should be better against a jacket collar or under a hat etc.
I will say this. I first bought the Pros and while they may sound marginally better and with marginally better bass response.....I decided to stick with the OpenRun (non pro version). You know that little tingle that you get sometimes with the shokz at your temples....that little buzz?...that vibration? That bass buzz is more pronounced with the Pros and so I preferred the regular OpenRun version. Additionally....in the circumstances that I use the Shokz....in the wind...while riding or exercising.....that extra $50 for that 'better' sound quality just does not matter at all during these circumstances imo.
Either way...hope you enjoy them. I'm really enjoying mine. Ride safe!
