" ... Lots of bass, too. ... "
" ... Overall sound quality is good, but due to the small size, there's not alot of bass. ... "
" ... Like the video attached, I love the way the speakers move with the bass. ... "
" ... the bass is actually really good, and you can actually feel the bass at the top and bottoms of the speaker. ... "
" ... The end-bass caps make it way cooler and worth the money. ... "
" ... In a complete open area, the bass is surprisingly strong, but I would say it's highlights would be vocals, and clarity of all the stuff above the deep bass. ... "
" ... It’s capable of keeping the base without being over the actual lyrics of my music ... "
" ... Most music apps have a equalizer in them so you can make adjustments on the bass and treble. ... "
