what about bass quality ??

The bass quality for these, and I am not sure if it is just a Sennheiser thing, but are better than most other headphone brands that I've used. I probably spent hundreds of dollars on headphones for working out/running and these sound better, to name a few, than the Apple earbuds and the few different Sony headphones that I've bought. The bass is very good for active style headphones in this price range.

The bass is average but that is all I need for running & working out. The PMX80 is all that I look for when each one wears out. I think they are great.

The bass is really good in my experience. I listen to mainly EDM and rap, and do some gaming as well, and these have proved to be stellar for all 3. Also works wonderfully for movies and tv.

They all say the bass sounds good...but I am telling you as a bass lover...the bass in these highly disappointed me. It is VERY weak. I have to give the answer here because I bought these earphones based off all the positive answers to this very question. Just don't. They also hurt if you have smaller ear canals. Using their smallest earbuds doesn't help.

Hi Tim, these will not play bass as "much" as the Beats pro which are designed to exaggerate bass, but these have very accurate, tight bass that goes really low. But what you lose in bass volume, you gain in fit and finish, quality, and very accurate and pleasing music.

The Bass on these is great! I'm not entirely sure what you mean by 'what you need to look at to tell.' But if you aren't satisfied with the bass of these headphones, the software comes with a built-in equalizer. You can adjust the bass in the headphones.

Hi, This is my husbands, so I asked him. He says it has good bass, and goes deep and it has no distortion. Hope this helps.

The bass is crisp & clean..... I'm very happy with my Polk speakers.... I also have 2 klipsch sub woofers hook up 2 my 7.1 Sony receiver.....

If by rich quality you mean frequencies down to bass level, I'd say no. I bought them for the clarity they give center-channel voices. For that they are excellent, and they blend nicely into my left and right channels where much of the bass sound comes from anyway.

It is average quality....I am not a music aficionado but the bass is not deep and outside of the volume controls, there are no extra features to boost the sound from what I can tell, but the midrange tones are OK for most audio content. I listen to mostly streaming content not necessarily just music, so for my purposes they work pretty great.

I have owned several different speakers and I must admit that I am somewhat of an audiophile. I have had these speakers for 3 days now and I can say that they are decent for their price. To answer your question in regards to bass, it is just okay, nothing extraordinary. Again, it's still good for its price, but just not quite there for me. What I mean there is that the speakers and sub do not pick up on ALL lows, they are not full spectrum and will miss certain lows, and therefore miss certain bass at those frequencies. Also, at higher volume, above medium, you can hear distortion in the bass as well. If you pump the bass up to max and then crank up the volume, you will start to see the negative side of these speakers. I would still recommend these speakers for the price, they are perfectly fine for watching shows/movies and playing games...just not listening to music at high volume.

Better treble then bass or mid-range but I listen to alot of alt rock and heavy metal...rap may be a different story I would say a 7....I will say that I can't hear a word from people at the gym that is why I like them

I haven't done a heavy bass type of mix with these headphones yet. lower Freqs has much more engergy than higher Freqs , so very heavy bass can sometimes drown other frequencies . My best advice is to try and listen to same song using studio monitors, good speakers or even high-end flat headphones and compare.

Audiophile grade headphones are not for BassHeads... They produce audio that is as close to reference as possible, if you want extra bass, you want cheaper, crappy sets like what are produced by "Beats by Dre", that destroy the sound quality for added bass.

These are fairly accurate in sound reproduction. If u want a heavy bass sound then get beats

These aren't that way. You're right most (beats or whatever) just have a ton of low quality bass. These are a good all around headphone. ++ to RHA

Bass is good, not top of the line frequency response of course but good.. However, if you're using it for music or you think you're getting a sound system you will be disappointed but, overall for the price it sounds clean and clear.

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.
