I have found that most high-end headphones concentrate on bass not highs and midrange. Are the highs on this set of headphones clear?

yes. BUT I run it through my iPhone with MyTunes Pro music app. It's worked fine. At high volumes its held up.

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

Hi William. I'm not a audiophile by any means, but the highs on these specific headphones seem to be okay for their price. Hope this helps.

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.

Is it close to normal headphones lol these are at the top end in sound I had a pair of grado's before they broke the 225i and the sound a lot warmer with better bass and even though they're not as detailed as the 325i from grado you'd be hard pressed to hear the difference unless you put them in a very high quality hifi..I've tried sony/and bose/mommouth and they beat them all on sound...we're these fall down is there not as comphe as the bose top line and if you like the bass of the sonys but these are well balanced and very well refined you'd be hard pressed to find better for less money only 325i from grado beat them but they are open backed and lack the bass and have no noise cancellation Is it close to normal headphones lol these are at the top end in sound I had a pair of grado's before they broke the 225i and the sound a lot warmer with better bass and even though they're not as detailed as the 325i from grado you'd be hard pressed to hear the difference unless you put them in a very high quality hifi..I've tried sony/and bose/mommouth and they beat them all on sound...we're these fall down is there not as comphe as the bose top line and if you like the bass of the sonys but these are well balanced and very well refined you'd be hard pressed to find better for less money... » Read More Is it close to normal headphones lol these are at the top end in sound I had a pair of grado's before they broke the 225i and the sound a lot warmer with better bass and even though they're not as detailed as the 325i from grado you'd be hard pressed to hear the difference unless you put them in a very high quality hifi..I've tried sony/and bose/mommouth and they beat them all on sound...we're these fall down is there not as comphe as the bose top line and if you like the bass of the sonys but these are well balanced and very well refined you'd be hard pressed to find better for less money only 325i from grado beat them but they are open backed and lack the bass and have no noise cancellation « Show Less

You can only expect good base from high dollar audiophile headphones. If you want decent bass, you'll have to adjust your musical device accordingly.

Hello. I listen to my headphones in amplifier of Technics and sound great. Sound card, which you want to buy seems to be very nice. There are also built-in amplifier for headphones and very high quality. I see no reason these headphones do not sound good, not to say super good. Good choice in my opinion!

No. You want to treat these more like tweeters. They sound good on the high end, but trying to put a lot of mid-frequency and low end bass through them will only make them crackle.

They are loud and very clear. Even though they are DJ Style headphones, I think they would be average DJ headphones. I do play guitar and have them plugged in to my amp and they sound loud and amazing. For the price, no other headphones would be better.

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.

The frequency response seems to be on the flat side with out too much colorization, Lows are deep with out being muddy, and highs are clear and bright with out being harsh, the only lacking part for me was the midrange was a little laid back, and often you will see this in Monitor headphones and speakers, my reference sound comes from my Magnepan speakers with a Carver Lightstar amp, giving me what my head calls normal (yours may very)  ....what signature sound I am looking for in headphones may come easily with a headphone amp as I use these on my computer and am going to buy the Audioengine D1To get a better performance from and should make these headphone much more to my liking - I hope that helps.

Well it depends on what type of music that you listen to. If you are heavy-bass dance music that kind of guy. This headphone probably will not reach your satisfaction. But i can assure you clarity of this headphone is top-class.

They are very good. For the money they are great. They do have lots of bass with clear highs. I am sure that some audiophiles will have some complaints (don't know what they would say) but no reasonable person could say that they aren't great for the money.

Best is admittedly very subjective. These are very, very good headphones. They're the best I have heard in many years. I really like the balance and nuance of the sound and frequently hear new bits in music I've listened to for years. Obviously, the price means these are an investment and there are other good headphones; point is the differences at the high end are subtle. My best testimonial, I guess, is that I would buy another pair of 846's. Hope that helps.

What I've noticed is that when I hear a phone or laptop sound is good, but not as loud and the bass is not as clear. Otherwise, the headphones sound great in amplifier. The heavier bass, stronger sound as long as it does not reach the limit distortion.

Well, they definitely don't have the BOOMING bass/bottom-end found on other similarly-priced earbuds. But I wouldn't exactly say that they're bad if you're listening to hip-hop. I listen to lots of hip-hop on them and it sounds clean and loud, which works for me.

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.

Yes they are. The bass is deep and the mids and highs are crisp. Mostly the mids. The system does output very nicely for speakers that size.

Really Idont know sol republic, but when I say that this headphones are for dj, that means that they dont have the crisp sound of the ATH-M50X, HDJ200, the high frequencies are less clear for my taste. so If you are looking for that kind of sound , this (For my judgement) arent for you. but If you are looking for a solid construction , clear bass lines at high volume without distortion, without to take off an eye of your self to pay, this are your headphones.
