Hey,I am new to the forum and I just wanted to ask whether the v-moda m80s have thumping bass like the beats by dre or maybe I should just get the beats solo hd.

Heya,
 
The M80's have fantastic bass. Smooth, goes deep, controlled, and lovely. Has gorgeous mids & smooth detailed treble too.
 
Build quality is what makes the real difference here though. The M80 will survive a car wreck. The Beats will break from sun light.
 
They look good too. They don't stick out like gaudy trash. They are sleek, dangerous, like a weapon hiding on your profile. Here's a shot of them at a hookah patio:
 

 
Very best,

Tks for replying but do you have any recomendations on headphones that have thumping bass like beats by dre without distorting the mids and highs?

you mean muddy mid-bass with no deep bass and muffled mids, highs like Beats??
 
you will probably like the Crossfades or the XB700s

 

[mark98rox]

No,I mean bass that is clear and has a great impact but not causing the mids and highs to be muddy.

He was being sarcastic.

 

[sulkoudai]

yea sarcasm doesn't work without voice doesn't it??
 
if you are looking for Beats alternative with better overall SQ and MUCH, MUCH lower price. Check out the Crossfade LP2 and the XB700s

anyone hear the lp2's? Can anyone compare em to the M80's or M50's? 

 

[B-Dawk20]

The XB700 or 500 is probably what TC is going for. From what I hear though, the 500 is the better deal.

 

[roker]

500s are bass monsters
 
but don't expect it to sound good with anything other than genres that love bass (rap/trance/some pop/etc.)

I'm not an audiophile and i would say for the average user the xb500 is good enough for the average user. the 700s aren't much more and they sound a little better with the highs and mids I've from what I've heard but i doubt its something the average person would notice or care about to much.
