Not sure why you are talking about, the bass on these is fantastic. You probably just weren’t able to get a proper seal on your ear. If the Shures (which I find awful to be honest) work for you then try using the Shure’s ear tips (the foam is nice) with the Turbines.

“The Cure, The Used, Linda Ronstadt, Interpol, Yellowcard and Fall Out Boy”

Those are pretty epic fail musicians, are you sure that’s legitimate enough to be called a reference?

I would like to ask the person who started this thread (the initial reviewer), did you happen to allow your Turbines to burn-in before you reviewed them? They need at least a good 100 hours of burn-in before they begin to sound the way they were intended to.

So maybe you shouldn’t be so quick to pass judgment on them.

Ya they sound really good if…….you hold them in with your fingers. They don’t fit at all. My $50 Panasonics fit way better and block out more ambient noise than these $200 Monsters. Given when held in though, they do sound very nice. Just make em fit better, thats all.

i have a pair of these as well. just got them today. im more of a car audio guy and love the low end (bass-head). i play bass heavy songs like “bass i love you”, “bassotronics”, and some bass heavy techno. the bass is there, now for beeing able to feel it, no. but i did play a 50 hertz tone, and wow, i could feel that, but not in the songs. weird.
