I mostly listen to EDM, rap, hip hop, dubstep, etc. Is the overall listening experience for these headphones better than Beats especially with bass?

I haven't listened to Beats a lot - I tried them in the store and wasn't impressed, esp given the price... So it's hard to say if these are better, I wouldn't say they are worse and certainly don't have any complaints about the sound quality for the price - I listen to a lot of EDM as well. They can be a little uncomfortable after a while, the ear pads are a little thin and they actually rest on my ears even though my ears are completely covered.

Bass the same as my son's Beat Solo... better highs though. Best with cable..

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.)

in my opinion, is better than beats and other brands. the headphone is comfortable and the look is very cool.

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.

They have incredible bass! You can feel the deep pounding of the bass drums and it sounds excellent. I use an Android phone with DSP Manager and turn the bass boost to extreme to get the effect maximized and these headphones don't distort at all even at higher volumes.

I think these have better bass than Sony XB700. I really like this headphone.

They're more like reference headphones so they're going to give you a fairly flat response. I wouldn't say they're particularly bass heavy. Which for me is a good thing because I use them for monitoring sound for video production work, but may not be a good thing if you like that sort of thing.

It all depends on the listener, to be honest. I think the 650s are a LOT better than Beats. If you asked 100 "audiophiles" (a pretty nebulous term...), probably over 90 would say the 650s. Beats are fully enclosed around the ear, and 650s have open backs. Very different sound. If you like the sound of the Beats, you will most likely be disappointed with the 650s at first. But if you listen to the 650s exclusively for a few days, then go back to the Beats, you probably won't like the sound of the Beats.

Yes the bass on these is far superior. Mainly because of the bigger drivers and speaker overall (it's very big compared to most in ears) and also because of the rubber tips. The acoustics and sound quality is good also very crisp sound. (Sounds good listening to electronic music like justice and kavinsky and deadmau5 and even sounds excellent with jazz (which most earphones don't) )

I have the Bose QC15, IMHO, not worth the money. More hype than anything. At least with the Beats, you get bass.

The bass is quite decent and full sounding considering that they are suppose to be for accurate studio monitoring. You can hear the lows, mids, and high all quite nicely. If you want something a bit more on the bassy side you should check out Audio Techinca's Bass Solid line of headphones, name is pretty self explanatory.

While Beats carries bass very well, you can customize the controls to your needs. Personally, I like the sound system very much.

Basically they are big time. The bass is far better than Beats. It's crisp and deep when it needs to be. The treble is high and distinct. Read my review. I go in into more detail. You will not be let down. These headphones are ridiculously big time.

Yes, absolutely. These headphones have a great bass driver but do not over do it like some of the beats or monster phones. The highs are clear and crisp, mids sound warm, and bass is deep and rich. These are by far some of the best headphones for the price and built to last. The aluminum construction makes sure they do not snap like the plastic ones built by other companies. Check them out in your local audio store and compare them for yourself.

Beyerdynamic headphones are great I upgrade from the DT880 that have been useful. The open versions enhance the high end of the mix giving a nice contrast on the percussion or bass.

Sound quality is pretty darn good! The Beats are known for a little heavier bass sound, but some people love that including me. Others might prefer to have the true sound of the music. I think they are high quality with heavier bass than some. Hope that helps.

I would say they are great in both. Where I work out there are a lot of T.V. sets and people talking and I can bearly hear them, even if the headphones aren't on too loud. As far as bass goes I would also say great. I loved them so much I ordered a pair for my husband who also uses them at the gym. Hope this answers your question.
