How's the Bass Quality of this S2? I'm listening to House Music most of the time.

Bass response is excellent, nice rounded punch and detail but not at all boomy. Actually is amazing that such small earphones can do such a good job with accurate bass - among the best that I have heard from small earphones. Getting a nice tight fit with the earbuds is essential for this.

Only way to get great bass is to use the foam ear tips that comes with the S2.

The bass on the fidelio s2 is quite sensational however it is not a bass head IEM, it has a slight hump in the sub bass that allows you to feel the bass more so, and The mid bass is very tight and incredible punchy. I noticed through personal listening that this IEM is very good with all forms of EDM and its overall a wonderfull IEM for all genres.

I find the bass to be quite good, in terms of both quantity and quality. It's full and well controlled, and in good balance with highs and mids, but not overly boomy. It may not satisfy you if you're a die-hard bass head (read: Beats), or prefer a pronounced V-shaped sound signature, but otherwise I think it'll do fine with house music and EDM.

I would avoid these. Not sure if I got a bad pair but the sound level and quality is below iPhone earbuds. Bass is below a 20 dollar pair. I returned mine

I'm a fellow electronic music junky. I'm an audiophile with basshead tendancies. I would say its above neutral. depending on budget, I'd go with one of the following: KEF-M200 for good clarity and thunderous bass, DN-1000 for near perfection and great bass, and/or Fischer Amps 4A XB (hefty price tag, but the all-around winner). These have the remote/mic and aethetically look cool, but sound isn't kick-a** like I think you're looking for.

The bass is nothing great, but sufficient enough. Your source also makes a difference, plugged into my android listening to Pandora, meh. Plugged into my iPod nano,...whoa yea!

The bass is pretty good. Not $100 headphone quality good, but still powerful enough to satisfy.

The LP2's so far, have had no distortion with any music I have listened to. Wether it's rock or rap, the bass is solid but not overpowering.

YES a thousand times yes. Pop/hip-hop/dance/dubstep all sound amazing cause of the true deep booming bass, not the fake "loud" bass you hear on other stupid headphones like beats. It's like a night club in your ears :) Highly recommend it. Sounds even better when you use apps to listen to your music like Poweramp to boost levels to your liking.

The bass is average. All depending on the room your in. Don't expect miracles. Price for performance under a bill, it is a great deal.

It sounds great! I listen to alot of Rap and HipHop music, the bass works well for my taste. I've yet to hear any sound distortion at all! Does it or will it sound as good as a Bose, I can't really answer that question cause I never really heard the Bose portable speaker system before. But I think this was worth my money! I like the sound!

Believe me, it plays plenty loud without distortion. Make sure you properly place it in the room and the bass response will be fine.

its not bad or noticeable. They are great but have weak Bass compared to what i am used to. I enjoy heavy deep bass. but then again its not for everyone. Besides that, the earphone were great with low chord noise.

While using the foam ear tips, the bass is incredible. Almost too much with electronic dance music. With other genres it's rather balanced and punchy where it needs to be.

It is decent bass. But not blow the top off... I have it in my 300zx. It sound good cause it's small hatchback. I guess in a truck it would be powerful too... I liked it just cause it was cheap, and I didn't want too loud like competition subs

It's definitely decent. While it's definitely not on par with high quality headphones, it's still quite good. The bass is fairly balanced with the other ranges. Highs, mids, lows; they're all quite good for the price.

I would give it a solid "decent". I believe I was expecting better, and looked for something else. In the course of trying more expensive Sennheiser, B&W;, Beats models, I came to feel the less than perfect isolation was way more than offset by everything else. Audio quality is fabulous and so is the design and fit and finish. Let me know how you go on this. Ed

the bass is very good. but the volume isn't up to par, I'd like them to be louder. I've been looking, the Beats Studio Wireless Over-Ear Headphone. are loud enough but not sure that is the sound that I'd be looking for. I own a pair of V-Moda m 100's and love them. only if they'd make a bt headphones.

I think it's tough to get truly good bass from a 4" speaker. There's bass, but it isn't amazing. For me, still a major improvement over the worn out stock 4" speakers I replaced.

Sound distortion at the highest volume(using iphone 5) is very moderate. Although I don't remember too clearly I think the bass is reasonably good at any level. Overall it's a pretty decent speaker for the park or beach or just cleaning a room.

These headphones sound more like a fine tuned night club. The bass is present, lush, tight, and gorgeous. An amp will only help, but isn't necessary. If there's no bass in the song, you won't hear any. If you want that "bass in your face" feeling, I'd recommend the XB500, which is far cheaper. It will make any song sound bassy, and sounds more like 2 15" juggernaut subwoofers rattling in your car. Not nearly as clean. Personally, I enjoy the XB1000's, but pick whatever one sounds like you'd be into.
