First of all, I want to say that I used the search bar for this already, but didnt find any good information on those few threads.

I want to buy this beanie for skiing. It is called the Burton Basic. It has built-in, removable headphones.
I have tuneups for my g10, but I dont wear it all the time when I ski. So, I am interested in buying one of these beanies.

Just a few questions...
Who has this beanie or has used it?
How does it feel/fit (comfort)?
Warmth?
Audio quality?? (VERY Important!)

Thanks for the input. Here's a picture of the hat for reference.

Audio quality is decent, and I found it didn't really fit my head right, and the ear pieces were uncomfortable.  Personally, I have bud earphones that go around my ear, and I just use them when I'm riding without a helmet.  then I can wear a steezy custom crocheted hat, instead of a bland black one.
