AKG heaphones are not good

[jasonb]

I bet the people hearing no bass haven't tried different tips. Maybe you aren't getting a good seal with the tips that come on them. No seal = no bass. They definitely are not bass light, I wouldn't​ say they are bass head quantity, but they definitely do not lack bass with the right tips.

I consider myself an audiophile, an audiophile on a budget, but definitely still an audiophile. Do they sound as good as my HD650, no, but they aren't bad for thrown in earbuds. I use them on my lunch break at work and when I take a walk around my housing community and they do just fine in those cases. When I want the best sound, I relax in my recliner at home in a quiet room and use my better equipment.

You must have gotten different earbuds then. There is absolutely no bass and, like mgbosshogg says, they're very quiet. You have to turn the volume way up to hear them. They're the worst earbuds I've ever gotten with a phone and probably the worst earbuds I've ever had. They just sit in the box. I want to give them away if someone will take them.

To me volume seemed just fine i put all my headphones/earphones at half volume and i hear my music just fine with em though i do think they lack bass too but then again you can easily fix that with the built in EQ in the options.

If it's absolutely awful (no bass, no boost) try putting the largest earbuds from the package. That made quite a difference for me - I was shocked too how bad they were at first but are nice now.

Bad, bad, bad... VERY BAD. cmon guys, these are not even comparable to a 10$ pair, they SUCKS. Even with equalizator you can't get much out of them. I just did a quick comparison with Apple earphones, and apple one's are 50 times better. Never used a so low quality earphones before.

They don't even fit my ear

 

[Doug Moffat]

Too much bass? Did we get the same earphones? There's no bass to speak of.

You're right. Strange criticism.

 

[Doug Moffat]

Not an audiophile. How could I be if I use and like Bose? But these are some mediocre headphones.

Poor quality. No life to them at all, used once, now in the box, I now use Sennheiser.

They sound ok but nothing special. My Shure SE215, Jaybird X2 and Sony XBA 10 sound much better.

I would hope so. If they don't sound better than free headphones I woukd demand a refund lol.

They are pretty good actually!!, you just have to change the in ear piece ( I dunno the name of those lil rubbers plastic things ) I use them with the ones I have from my Beats X , and now feeling comfortable and enjoying great sound quality, you just have to make some adjustments with the equalizer. crystal clear sound, powerful bass. Samsung screwed it up with the ones they included.
