Being a reggae fan I find no lacking of bass on tracks like (The) Buggles Island, or Bonnie Pinks Tiger Lily - the kick of the bass drum is fine by me. For performance and durability at a great price, these are an easy choice. So I have a few extra days to somehow find new slippers. EDIT: Adjusted rating from 2 to 4. They should have been next day delivery with Prime, but it was DPD that cocked up. the sound quality is terrible compared to genuine skullcandy. When testing with classical music, I can hear all of the parts very clearly. I?m so excited. Cant go wrong for $7. Great fitment.
