Though many people said they didn’t have any bass qualities, I still went ahead and purchased a pair of Sony MDR-V500. These linear monitoring headphones have a frequency range starting from 10hz, which will come in very handy for the mastering and sub-bass in the Drum and Bass stuff I’m currently working on. I cannot say they lack any bass, They sit tight and well, fold in in a conveniant way and generally give a good working expericnce. The audio quality is superb for the price. I’m looking forward to blasting overcompressed drums through these babies!
