I bought these 'phones on the basis of price, appearance, and brand. I knew up front that they have "extra bass" but didn't quite know how this would impact my listening experience. I listen to "classical" music: orchestra, chamber music, brass ensembles, etc. I find that the extra bass distorts the sound from what it should sound like (I'm a freelance professional trumpet player and recordist). That said, I find that if I am listening to music while sitting at my computer at work, and I don't cover my ears completely and have the volume down so I can hear if someone has come to my cubicle with a question, the extra bass sounds better than other 'phones I've used. I suspect that these 'phones were designed for the people with the loud bass thumping in their automobiles. Your mileage may differ!Read full review

The earphones are not as "bassy" as I expected them to be. I watched YouTube video reviews on the headphones and they were expressing how "bassy" they were. Excited to get them and when I tried them out I was meh about them. The sound quality is decent but if you're the type that likes hard bass these aren't the earphones you're looking for.

Got these ''refurbished'' for $20. Light weight, kind of lose fitting but very comfortable. Can wear for hours with little to no discomfort. More comfortable than my BOSE Tru Sound around ear headphones Sound is full and robust from top to bottom. Get an equalizer app and tune to your persona taste. Add some treble to bring out the highs and unless you are a bass head, bring the bass out a bit. All said, great buy, VERY happy with these all around. As Cramer would say... BUY, BUY, BUY!!!

Have owned many headphone through out the years, JBL, Skeleton candy, Panasonic ect. Always looking for the best dynamic range other than 20KHz to 20 Hz. These Sony headphones have a wide range, best I have ever found. However keep in mind that the bass is the selling point so they do have low bass so low you feel it not just hear it. Thus it can be al little freaky when listening to music it may take some time to get use to it. They arte comfortable to wear and light weight. Best of all is the price I got them really cheap on EBay. If you like to hear music and get the full spectrum of sound these are the ones for you.

These are good for the money, can handle the bass and stays around and on your ears,, the only problem that I had to correct was the bass boost button crazily has to be held in to take effect.. I put a clip on it to keep it locked in!!!! They work fine!!!!!
