Yes, I am a bass-head indeed; however, I still wanted to be able to reasonably hear the upper range. After trying the Klipsch S4s, Bose In-Ears, Creative EP-630s, Shure SE530s, I decided to try a pair of Beats by Dr. Dre Monster in-ear phones. The Beats, by far and away, provided THE BEST bass response I've ever heard on a pair of in-ear cans. However, that bass comes at a cost. I'm not hearing as much clarity or crispness in the upper range, but it is tolerable when EQed. The Beats, for me, provide the most bass of any in-ear phones I've ever heard and come closest to the bass produced by over-the-ear headphones. They weren't cheap costing $150.00. At this point, I'm sampling them to see if they are the pair I will keep. The bass produced by these cans is simply amazing. They do not distort easily. I wish I could find a pair of in-ears that would produce the phenomenal bass that these do, but also enable me to hear the rest of the upper range. I'm curious what others have to say about these ear phones since I think a buck fifty might have been a bit too much for phones that really deliver mostly bass...and plenty of it. |
