If you're looking for a "rockin' loud very "squawky" sounding pair of cans. Then these headphones may just be up your alley. These headphones are like a rocker's Beats by Dr. Dre, the mid-range is abundantly obvious when you slip these on your head, right away I noticed vocals, instruments, and the tight punchy kickdrums from rock and other acoustic sounding music such as jazz. But for rap, electronic and any genres that have sinewave bass, that require the bass to be felt and feature big thumpin' kicking basslines, well that's where these headphones began to fall short. I would also not recommend these for pipe organ renditions where the low notes can be felt. The Rockville PRO-M50's have surely earned their name if you just want to "rock out" to your music with greatly reduced bass, quiet muddy sounding dull treble, and very clear almost harsh upper mid-range. up in the 1k and up frequency. Soundstage and a sense of being "enrobed" in the music is nonexistent too with these "screechers". Regardless of genre. However these were possibly the most COMFORTABLE headphones I have ever worn! Picture almost like two fluffy clouds around the ears and on top of the head, and that's with the default leather pads! Extremely lightweight! I did not use the extra suede pads. For the price at around $40+ I was very disappointed with the sound quality and expected a lot more better in comparison with other $40+ headphones I have owned including a pair of JVC HA-RX700's. Currently I own a a pair of $16 Koss UR-20's and those far exceed the Rockville PRO-M50's for less than half the amount in terms of sound quality blows it straight out the water! But build quality and comfort as one can imagine for the price is nowhere near these screeching screamers HOWEVER, the UR-20's are NOT terrible when it comes to the comfort and the build quality either. The hard leather zipper case is very good quality that will surely protect these cans in the long run. The detachable coiled up 4ft by default cord is a breath of fresh air, where you have a market saturated with headphones that feature cords that are by default 11+ft, non detachable and non coiled. Overall 3 and a half stars for the sound, and 10 stars for the comfort and sure wearability for these little screamers.Read full review

I don't have any other Headphone Sets for Comparison, though I think these ones do have a Very Good Quality Sound for Flat Response Monitoring, or even for occasional general purpose listening. Comfort is important for anyone I think, and these are comfortable, they sit nicely on the Head, They fit nicely around the Ears, and they are lightweight. There is good Spacial Room when wearing them, they are not too tightly enclosed on the ears, yet they are still firmly fitting. Soundwise, I would say they sound Clean and Precise, and overall the sound is Excellent. I was at first a little skeptical regarding the Plastic Housing construction but it seems many Headphones have Plastic Housing, even more expensive headphones are constructed with similar materials. Technology is quite advanced these days, and the materials used in the construction actually feel good and surprisingly sturdy despite the light weight. The Leather initially seems a little on the thin side, but again I'm surprised at how the quality is good, it's soft and comfortable, and I have no intentions to be providing any harsh treatment to these Headphones, so as I'm becoming more familiar with them I think they will last for quite a while actually, they should last years to come yet. The Case they come with is Good, and provide good general protective care for everyday usage and storage. Extra Ear Pads are a bonus, and the Case and Extra Pads were one of the deciding factors in my purchase, other than the quality of the Headphone of course which is Primary. The Lead is detachable from the Headphones, and seems like a good lead with good quality fittings also, keeping with the good quality of these Headphones, for an overall good quality listening experience. At this stage I've had them for a couple of weeks, and honestly I'm impressed with these Headphones. Personally I think I made a Good Choice in my selection to purchase them, and considering the reasonably low cost I think they are Great Value along with the Case and Extra Pads, but more importantly the Sound Quality is Excellent, and that's what's needed most with a good set of Headphones. Taking Cost into relative consideration, I'm giving this 5 Stars.Read full review

Got these today, took them out of the beautiful hard case they come in and connected the cord, which is very nice and has a great solid tight jack on the headphone side. Plugged them into my 1W +1W headphone amplifier and oh my god, their name is well deserved, seriously these ROCK! Whoever said these are bass shy, isn't using a powerful enough headphone amplifier, these have bass for days with a proper amp, you could probably even increase bass response by adding some thin dense foam to the inside of the driver enclosures. The build quality is excellent and so is the sound, they are absolutely right about these being as good as more expensive headphones, at least in my opinion, these are an absolutely excellent value.

These Rockville Audio M-50 studio headphones are amazing. They sound wonderful the tone is amazing great highs and lows. Bass is good but I'm gonna be using them for a podcast not for music.
