They're probably a bit lacking for a basshead or someone accustomed to Beats, but by my standard (good amount, punchy and not flabby/boomy) they're amazing.

I only have three other cans, Sennheiser momentum (on-ear, first gen), AKG K550 and HE-400. The momentums have more bass but they're aimed at that, but it's not tight and punchy. It's not too boomy either, but it definitely isn't as tight. The K550s have no bass at all, and the HE-400 has a bit more too, but it's not as articulate. If you like crisp and punchy bass, you'll like these.
Edition S. Frankly, $150 is a criminal bargain.
Three things for context:
1. I'm comparing to the original price (and excluding other options)
2. I live in the UK where Black Friday isn't really a thing (it exists, but we don't get deals anywhere near as good as you do in America)
3. The Edition S exists in a kind of niche. It's both closed and open, so it is very versatile. If you need one headphone for all situations then there aren't many to compete.
Man, the price on these looks so tempting but it looks kinda disgusting in white. Wish we had better pics\Video to judge from.
I also swore i won't buy another pair of headphones without hearing them out first, i don't want to end up with another shrill pair. They sounded so CLEAR in Z-Reviews demo though...
Decisions decisions...:rolleyes:

LOL @ z review demos
Yea yea, i know...but other headphones' demos sounded muffled compared to the edition s' demo. That's why i'm giving it some importance.

Agreed, the white is a bit much, then again these are 40% off.
