i have had many headphones that have claimed "best bass for value" but i think this one deserves the gold medal. they have a nice snug fit that cancels noise quite well and i think that they look rather nice. i listen to all kinds of music from opera to heavy metal, but these headphones aren't that great for rock and some types of techno but for hip hop, rap, and dubstep these headphones are amazing. overall they are great value for basscravers.
