Monster turbine Pro Gold lacking bass?

Bass will be very weak if you do not get a proper seal.  Try different tips if you have to.  If all fails, then return them and try something else.

I have heard the SE215s and the MTPGs bass are undoubtedly even more vociferous.

Try the foam supertips that came along with the package. You really need the right seal for them to produce the bass.

definitely have plenty of bass... even more than most of my full sized cans (quantity wise)

i'd suggest the foam supertips as well, the hybrid ones with the silicon on the inside and foam on the outside, once I found ones that fit (the smaller grey ones) i never looked back

i've had them for about a year now, and they definitely deliver (although just picked up a jvc fx700)

It should be a problem with your seal. Try different tips, or push earphones to the end of your ear canal & hold with your finger to see is there any difference.

The MTP Gold has plenty of bass punch and these maybe defected or faked. I will recommend to try the Sennheiser IE8 or UE T10Pro and both offers deep punchy bass with wide soundstage and overall clear soundsignature.

make sure you have the right fit. at first i was like "where's the bass" when i got my MTPG. then i had an awakening when i got the fit right with the supertips.

also, sometimes I have to tap once or twice on the enclosure while there in the ear, it goes 'click' then the bass HITS, but its also possible you have a defective set...

I'm honestly pretty sure that most of the people who claim that the MTPG have "tons of bass" have not heard them. I have a pair of these myself and they do not have a lot of bass quantity, but the quality is there. What I have heard a few people say regarding the MTPG that I completely agree with is that if the song has a lot of bass than these IEM's will reflect that, if a song does not have a lot of bass than you will not hear a lot. I own both the S4's and the MTPG and the S4's have way more quantity when it comes to bass, but the MTPG are more balanced than a lot of people on this site claim. I do not consider them basshead IEMs at all.

THe S4's bass is bloated with a big mid bass hump, that's probably why you feel like they have a lot more bass. As you move into higher end IEMs, most of them will try to steer away from this mid bass hump as that's generally considered "bad". It, imho, muddies up the track too much. I've never heard the Golds, but the Tributes also has a lot of bass. Those can make a song rumble down low and the notes are extra weighty.

(Also I don't think this pair is fake since it was bought from an authorized dealer and everything seems to be right, as for it being defective, these would be some damn good defective headphones, everything but the bass seems to be perfect!) 

Was it "Ships and sold by Amazon"? Get a Sony S-series walkman and jack the clear bass up :)

S4's are slightly boated/boomy but they don't have a midbass hump? they start at about 500hz leveling of at a +10 to 15db boost at around 100hz all they way to 10hz or less just like the MTPG's.
