Did I just happen to get a bad set. Ok, this is one of the highly-rated reviews that I don't quite understand. The bass tones are completely missing, they fall out of my ear more easily than the iPod/iTouch headsets, no matter what size piece I use as well. I set my sounds to 'bass booster' in my iTouch settings, yet the Apple iTouch headsets still remain so far superior it's not even funny. I purchased these buds fully expecting better sound overall, not to mention better bass tone over the buds that came with my iTouch. What am I missing here. It's just WAY too tinny.so, till I find a better set of buds (I'm considering the Bose) I'll be tossing these in the trash & sticking with the set that came with my iTouch for now.
Trust me when i say this, do not buy these headphones. It has happened to two sets of the same headphones. I know when people read bad reviews of a product they want and just think that it wont happen to you. They work fantastically until one earbud stops playing music. I dont know if its because i put them in my pocket or not. Do not buy them
These things are really loud. They blow away the standard ipod headphones. The bass is certainly noticeable, which is great on earbuds as they generally lack bass.
I am a college student and i use these headphones daily and have had no problems yet. If you have the ipod ear phone these will blow them away. The v-mod has more bass than most but if you dont want much bass why would you even consider buying these headphones, it says it right in the name. If you are looking for a headphone that is better that the ipod headphones that will isolate some outside noises then these are the headphones for you.
Just try them. The sound is very pleasant, warm, full, rich, and the bass gets deep. As a music lover who has gone through a handful of headphones and listens to music all the time (and currently purchasing the Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro) I am FULLY vouching for the AWESOME sound from these headphones. The cord's a little short, but that can be convenient as well (if you want portability). For $20, a great value at that. They deliver what they claim: EXCELLENT bass. Seriously. I've done a lot of research and for earbuds, nothing can beat these for less than $50.
If you're looking to spend more, I recommend the Etymotic ER6-i Isolators for $70-80 dollars (try Craigslist or Ebay). Anyone with a portable music player, ipod, or even a laptop will love these things, you will hear music like never before (if you have never upgraded from stock headphones/earbuds). DEFINITELY the best earbuds for less than $50, maybe even $100. These come with 3 different cushions to fit all ear sizes, are very comfortable, look cool, and sound GREAT. Go get these if they fit your budget and enjoy some good music and movies.
