Amazon has a deal on the turbines right now for 74 shipped.  I was wondering if these are better than the nuforce 700x in terms of bass.  I mostly listen to hip hop reggae and metal and consider my self a bass addict.  which one would be a better buy

I have both and like them both though I'm selling the nuforce 700m
I think bass is slightly more pronounced in the 700, but the turbine has a little smoother sound
I had some fit issues with the turbine though so that could be part of the problem
the three year warranty on the turbine is a great feature
overall I think the nuforce has a little better sound with better highs and a little more separation  but they're close
turbine has better build quality, cables and microphonics are about the same, nuforce are a little easier to wear over the ear
turbines have better accessories

I'm with seanmo for the most part...both are fantastic...tho I'm still burning in the NuForces right now.  The bass has opened up considerably, but to my ears, I find the Turbines more bass heavy and the NuForces a little brighter.  I'm having issues with the fit on the Turbines too, but the hybrid sony tips work great on both, it's just that the Turbines are a little heavy for gym use and they don't work over the ears that well.  I'll probably keep both...use the NuForces at the gym and the Turbines at home.  I like both for different reasons I guess.
