How are these with music? I mostly listen to rock and little country.

Klipsch has an upfront sound with high energy and very clear treble. That's what a lot of people like about them and what some don't like. I love the sound with rock especially when played loud. Voices really come out loud and clear

For rock in particular, these are phenomenal, so long as you know the sound they're known for going in. They have a very in your face sound. Super involving and fun. Very aggressive. Some people find it a bit fatiguing. Your mileage may vary. If you tend to prefer something more laid back, look elsewhere. If you like something that will get your foot tapping, look no further. There's absolutely no issue with their sound reproduction. Pretty much anything will sound great on them, so long as the source material is good. It's just a matter of whether you'll like their forward presentation. They're geared to sound pretty aggressive and forward.

I run these through a Harmon Kardon stereo receiver. I have not heard any distortion no matter the volume. Awesome for the price.

As others have said it depends on the music. If I wanted to listen to hip-hop, some jazz, and percussion mostly, I'd get the Beats. But if I wanted to listen to pop, most rock, country, or classical, I'd go with AT, Grado, or Sennheiser

I think they sound good for rock and metal they are over all a great pair of headphones.

I think they sound fantastic. They might be a little bass heavy for you, though. They clearly are built for genres that emphasize the low end, but it's not overpowering nor does it drown out the higher tones, although the mids ARE quite recessed. But again, the "midrange scoop" is pretty common.

I really like the speakers. They rock. Whatever the music. Would definitely purchase them again.

The bass is decent. Not like skull candies but still quite a bit. As for listening to music, their great. By far the best earbuds i have ever had in that price range of 10 bucks or so.

These are more for playing Metal/Hard Rock songs. If you plan to play that type of genre then these will do fine.

I have small ears so after 3 hours or so of non stop use, I get tired. But my friend who has bigger ears can wear them longer. As for them being bright. I think that if you put the gain to 0 or every music you play isnt fluffed you will get true sounds. Not too much bass or mids or highs. Compared to Seinheissers which I love, its a close 2nd to those and those are amazing

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

They are really good. The bass isn't naturally amplified, if you mess with the EQ, it responds to that really well. Not too rattly or anything. (from my son who got the headphones for a gift and knows way more about this stuff than I do.)

There not awful, these are more for bassy music, if you want something for classical i would look for sol republic headphones

For music they are fine. A bit gaudy because of the shape and fit. But they sound good. I use them quite a bit in the gym and on bike rides. Mixed reviews for work but believe this is a feature of my laptop and not the headphones. I too use Lync. I have not had any complaints from listeners so they seem to block background noise - not wind, so when walking to your car, people will know. My one complaint is that I have to be in close proximity to my laptop at work. At home, I can walk around a bit, but no more than say 20 feet.

Good overall quality no mater what you are listening to. If using them with an iPhone or ipad an good in-line amp really helps.

I mostly listen to classical and piano music. I find the quality of sound to be fine.
