I need good head phones to listen to music on my laptop &amp; ipad. I am hard of hearing. I love good clear sound and bass. Will these work for me?

No, these don't have any bass pretty much at all. I was really disappointed when I listened to them. You should go with the AKG K712s, those have really amazing bass.

they will do fine but honestly i would buy almost any other head phone in the world then these. the sound quality is not worth the price the apple ones which actually fit in your ear (both their high end one and their $40 option is a better buy)

My husband hasn't really used them much for music.... He is sort of a car nut and has been watching videos and listening to them while still in the room with me (watching girly shows like Bachelor).He says they are bad a**. That is all I can tell you! I don't think you can go wrong with them though. Check Consumer Reports testing of them against some of the bigger names!

Hardly "wasting" money in my view, they're a great set of headphones. But you'll get better results using high-bitrate or uncompressed audio and a better output than Apple, like a Cowon music player. There are also small portable amps you can use with the iPhone. The iPhone audio isn't tops but it's not that bad either.

They work, but are they good? Depends on your definition of good, I guess. IMO, they are not as good as other HP laptops I've owned, but they work. Use external speakers if you want to listen to music.

It depends on what you are going to use them for. I live in the city which is pretty noisy, trains cars etc but I wanted headphones that I could hear around me. So their not noise cancelation. I haven't had a lot of headphones so, I can tell you this. They don't have more bass then the zik parrots or beats. Most likely they're like a low kind of bass headphones. I use it for my nexus 5 & they don't have a lot of bass but when I use them for my galaxy tab 3 they have bass. But with these I can say they changed my taste in music. I listen to more live bands now. Before it was a lot of hip hop

I use them with my laptop and iPod and find the sound quality is good (I am not an audiophile). My concern is that they weigh over 8oz. which I find gets heavy over time, so I have switched to a smaller, lighter, on-the-ear pair.

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.

NoWhile I'm sure they sounded better than other headphones you've heard, they weren't at even close to their full potential. These headphones require 300ohms to be properly powered, which you MBP won't do. I would highly suggest picking up a amp + DAC combo so you can power these cans to open up the soundstage and let the details of music shine through. If you're looking for a good pair to plug straight into your MBP, I would highly suggest checking out the HD-598's as they are low impedance and can easily be powered by the computers native sound card.

Yes they will work for iPad air and they sound incredible for movies, games, and music. Best headphones you can buy for the price hands down they beat out 300$ beats in quality and sound. BEST headphones I have ever bought

I purchased mine a while ago and I mostly use it for my iPod and my laptop, for movies and online streaming of shows. I think the sound resolution is great. The bass is not overpowering, and the sound is rich. The ear-pads sit well on your ears and are not painful, so you don't end up with something compressing your head. In addition, what I mostly like about these headphones is that once you put them on, it diminishes outside noise. Even better. So to answer your question, then yes: this product is great for listening to music at home. Plus it comes with its own bag. Bonus:)I hope this review was helpful.

I've used them for music basically, but from my perspective they will be great for movies since the sounds are crisp clear. Just don't expect tons of bass since they are designed for real sound (not like Beats). These make audible things you don't hear with cheap headphones!!

Sorry, been on the road for awhile so I didn't see this question. These headphones are very rich with bass and not tinny at all! They also have really good coverage on the highs too. You will hear things in your music that you have never heard before with these things (ok, assuming you have been using the typical headphones and not $100+ ones). These are the only headphones I use now (actually for the last 15+ years). I just bought an Ipod nano that came with ear buds. Guess where the first place they ended up was (circular file).

U cannot make or receive calls through them if that is ur question. I would only recommend them for listening to music & videos on ur phone. I need 2 warn u. These really thump, they have very deep bass. If u listen 2 jazz or classical these r not the best choice.

While these headphones are great for the money they are not in that class. If you are willing to spend the money for those others do so. If you want headphones that are good for the money these will do the job, not great bass but good. They lack the highs a bit though. I hope this helps.

It's almost like asking "are these the best shoes you can buy"? The answer depends on you and your intended purpose. Most headphones at this price point (and higher) are going to sound pretty good.

You *can* run them off of your laptop, but they won't sound very good. You will need some kind of amplifier. Fiio makes some good amps for the money. I would suggest something in the $40 to $100 range. You won't be dissapointed though, these headphones are awesome.
