Well I have to retract some of my impressions above, but not completely. These do definitely have bass, just not like I'm used to. The bass on these really only comes out on certain songs, but where the bass is strong, you can definitely hear it and it sounds quite nice. It would be nice to see some more bass presence on songs where the bass isn't hugely pronounced in the first place as well.

I also put on some older rock and these really came alive with that. Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here sounded better than ever before, but it still could have used a little more treble sparkle. David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust also sounded pretty good, but I would have liked to have heard the bass guitar a bit more than I did.

I'm going to try to rig up an impedance adapter and throw some classical at them as well, so we'll see how that goes, but these do seem to do certain genres better than others. I'm also wondering if these will just take some more getting used to on my part to help.
