i heard the PortaPros are very good in clarity, i pretty much love to hear the detail in the music everything must be heard. Bass should be there but not so much... in which my Ultrasone 750s is oright with it, very nice.

...then forget the PortaPros (even though I have them). Very heavy bass orientation, which is why I haven't listened to mine in years. I guess they'd be OK for portable, non-critical listening use, but not much beyond that IMO.

ohh... didnt realise they are so bad, i just wish cnet would stop mislead people they didnt even said it sounds good "for the money", i was under the impression they were good.. but yeah the bass some said is over powering... ah now i get how that it might sound thanks.
Well, they're not bad, in fact they are pretty good for the money. But even though, they're not going to compare to high end cans. They are fairly bassy, but I don't think that's a flaw, just their unique sound, they're a fun can.

The PortaPro is not bad at all. It is just not the best you can get for clarity. It is better than a lot of what is available at a lower price, but you are going to get more clarity with the more more money you put into the phones (in many cases anyhow). As Shoreman mentioned, they are great for 'On the Go', non-critical or portable listening.

They are IMO, the most fun sounding can out of what I currently have.
Yes, I used to own the PortaPro´s as well. Great phone for the money, but a bit heavy on the bass, and if you want clarity, there are better (more expensive) cans out there.
