Honestly a casual listener may like it but for me, I really think it needs more improvement.
I think it has serious sound leakage, partly is due to the design.

It will fall off easily and you will need to continuously press it into your ear.
Not a very good earphone imo.
Get something else

hahaha....at first i also think it's bass is so shit...but....if you point the hole to more centre of your ear...bass is stronger...

Yeap, cuz less sound leakage ma..
But if you notice, this earphone really cant go low..
The low bass is hardly audible..
The isolation is just like the old one, zero, but this can be good too..

Yup light bass for those who listen/have crap music/video source.

Its bassy. More than even my dre urebeats.

Been using it a lot n quite happy with it. Perfect for my ALACS n especially awesome for movies.
My only qualm with it i wish the plastic was softer.

Def above average.

I listen using iPod classic.
All these are based on personal reference..
But basically, i dont think an open iem can be bassier than a closed iem Monster beat.
Try asking audiophiles nod.gif

Hence y i am saying ure personal preference is skewed because of the inferior music source ure using.

Btw Dude i aint askin.
Tellin ya. Stating it. Its bassier than my urebeats
Audiophiles... most of them are using inferior music/video source but judging nonsense.
The sound on the earpods are good.

The number of ppl i know who even tag and have a good remuxed/encoded ALAC collection and properly encoded m4v videos from BD's... are so few. Yet theres so many so called audiophiles on idevices...

Its very good earphone.

But not as good as some pricey sens

But I am listening it via a dock. Means no classic's amp interfered.
Its pure.
Bassier than urbeats?
Not sure about this but its funny that a classic can make urbeat bassier but cant do the same thing on earpod.

rclxub.gif  Tbh I don't understand why people quarrel to justify on something which is very subjective. The sound quality you listened may be slightly different when comparing with others..  doh.gif Some people think its bassless some love the bass.. Just like one love coffee and the other love tea and they end up quarreling about the choice.. Silly.

LOL! This is starting to get offensive..
