I've been using my Sennheiser hd212 for years, they finally died on me. They werent the best but they had some bass and werent to bad and were extremely cheap.
 
 
I found this, and it intrigued me... anyone comment on the sound/quality/build integrity of these?
I listen rap, hip hop, r/b whatever bass i can get id enjoy. with clean sounds if thats possible with headphones or as much as possible.
 
 
Will these have any bass? are they good/ etc.. pros/cons and any personal opinion

Heya,
 
$219. Don't hesitate.
 
Don't get the fades. Get the Denon. My god. At that cost. And that's new.
 
Very best,

You're going to be like:
 

 
The bass is low, well extended and tight. The mids & highs are good. They're an excellent headphone for a closed headphone. But man, they got bass.
 
Enjoy!
 
Very best,

Heya,
 
You'll love them.
They can even be run from a portable device without a dedicated amp.
Comfy too.
Plus they look classy, not like hipster trash (not referring to the M80's, those actually look pretty nice, though not classy)
 
Very best,

1.laptop
2.hp touchpad with dre audio
3.zune HD
4.electric violin lol. has an input jack right on it, thats what il be using them for.

Heya,

No box unfortunately.
 
However, I would suggest if you want a box, to look into gun cases. They're rugged and lockable. With big foam inserts that you cut to fit. So you can just customize a place inside for your headphones. Then they can survive moves, college, etc when not on your head. Locked keeps random roommate friends from peaking inside.
 
It'll work fine out of all those devices. They're low impedance and sensitive. You can squeeze a little more oumph out of an amp, but again, it's not necessary.
 
Very best,

How bad are the fades? I read that there **** near indestructible. Kind of neat design they have going on, wish other headphones were that rugged. How was the sound from them? or havnt heard any of there headphones. Not going to lie, it was the first time ive ever heard of V Moda before. Always stuck to sennheiser honestly. Good brand
