Has anyone tested these earbuds' bass for rap music and the like? I'm wondering how good the bass is. I want good bass!

It's pretty good. Very clear on both my iPod n iPhone on all sound settings including bass. N it fits the ear better than other in-ear headphones. I've been using these since 2009. I can't go for any other head phones. Just my opinion

The bass is AMAZING for the price! Not quite Bose quality, but definitely better than any other inexpensive pair I've owned. :)

This is subjective so it is tough to answer. They have good bass, but they are not overly bassy. I would say they are very well balanced. If you're looking for something to shake your brain :-), these probably aren't the headphones for you. That said, the sounds is very clean, precise. Hope this helps a little.

Yeah they are good for just about everything, you might want something that goes a little more low range for heavy dubstep, but I do bass heavy stuff all the time on them. You just have to get used to them, they r very clean and flat

In reply to an earlier post on Jun 10, 2009 7:30 AM PDT Dave in Dearborn, MI says: "They are as tinny sounding as others I have tried and returned. I am getting frustrated wirth the trial and error and all the returns. I even got a pair of the V-MODA Bass Freq Earbuds offered here on Amazon that had great reviews regarding the bass response. I returned them right away....they were as tinny sounding as any others I have tried...and the volume was low as well---even at the highest setting. Could be I just got a bad pair, but I am not going to order another set of those either." REPLY: It sounds as if you didn't have either of these phones properly seated/sealed in your ears. If they are not properly seated, then the sound won't have the bass you're looking for, and it will sound tinny. I have several sets of fantastic in ear phones, and they all need to be properly sealed in your ear to give you the great sound experience that they are capable of.

They will sound pretty decent, I never had a problem with distortion or static with mine and I don't have an amp on them. They put out pretty good bass for the price. I have had them for almost 2 years now with no issues.

Actually, I've found them quite good out of the Apple system and can probably compete with the Beats i have at home, they sound amazing in my computer and home system as well.. good luck with them.

Oh yes! The bass, in my opinion, is fantastic. I tried some 130 dollar earbuds once, and I loved the bass. But these are better. And cheaper.

The bass on them is great... not over powering like many head phones, but just right to give whatever your listening to a good kick

If you have these headphones, your bass should be kicking! I get strong bass even when driven from an iPod. Check the headphones with a different source, plug them into something else and see if that improves the bass. If it does, then your source is not driving the headphones well. If there is restricted bass even with another source, I think you have a bad set of headphones that need to be returned. These things are very strong in the bass. Mine were bass happy out of the box, but the recommendation to loosen them up is a good one and I support that.

My only problem with them is too little bass. They are good for workouts because they stay put and reduce background noise. My Apple earbuds have better bass.

Well obviously this can be a subjective question. But to me, yes, there's plenty of bass. Compared to something like beats, maybe not as much but I'd say the overall sound is really good and it gets quite loud. Also considering the price compared to the beats I would choose these every time.

Dear Amazon, Don't you get it yet? I DIDN'T ORDER THESE EARBUDS. I was out of town when they were ordered (at 2:00 a.m. on my account). I have sent them back to the shipper!

I am very happy with the level of bass these headphones provide. It could be that for what you want it may not be enough, however. Based on all the headphones I have tried, these were the best ones within their price range.

I actually experienced something totally different. The bass on my pair of v modas is not so good but the high and mids are pretty good. But maybe that's just my comparison to other headphones I've had before.

hi Jerad, I am not a old customer of this product, so give me a few more months to test the Skullcandy earbuds for an honest answer to your concerns of long lasting quality.Larry

They have decent bass but they are not bass speakers. Put it this way the more bass you try to put through these the worse your music will sound. Either get these and compliment them with a subwoofer and amp or buy a higher end speaker this is a lower end model.

Hey man, so I think these headphones are more suited for edm style music. But, they still sound pretty great for other genres of music. The bass sounds a little too strong for my taste in rock and metal but if that's something you like by all means get them. I would recommend trying them out before you purchase them to see if they fit your preference, check online quite a few electronic stores carry them.
