- Sony boasts enhanced bass, but really they should boast an enhanced dynamic range - I noticed some pleasant improvements in the mid and hi ranges as well as the bass.

Music in the top and bottom ranges sounds amazingly crisp, almost like they're blossoming into symphony

I love the added bass and the enhanced mid and low ranges

but I can tell that they have better bass and top range response than earbuds and most headphones of this price range.

The sound is superb - being honest, even really cheap ones, unless you're getting dollar store stuff, has ranges you probably can't even differentiate

Muddy bass and mid range and no high ends

If you are looking for a decent basic to mid-range over-the-ear headphone, then also consider Sony XB550AP
