MO’ Bass, In Your Face, We’re Gonna Bump This Place

If you think you need more thump in your…head trunk….um…more bass for your face…more…well you get the picture, more low end bass in your earbuds.  Look no further, Monster Turbine High Performance earbuds should be what you are looking for.  PCMag also provides a nice test and compare between the Monster Turbine earbuds and the Beats™ by Dr. Dre™ earbuds.  The Turbine give a higher response in the mids to highs but are about on par with the Beats™ by Dr. Dre™ in the bass.  This would probably help reduce the ‘I’m underwater’ effect of cutting out all those highs.

PCMag has a review out of these new in-ear speakers.  Here is a little snippet, and you can read the rest at PCMag.


Monster’s Turbine High Performance In-Ear Speakers ($179.95 list) is a lightweight pair of earphones that looks as nondescript as the earbuds bundled with your garden-variety MP3 player. The difference? The Turbine sounds much better and packs some seriously deep bass response. Most earphones that attempt to deliver booming bass end up distorting or muddying sound, but Monster keeps things clear. Fans of hip-hop, electronic music, and hard rock are likely to enjoy this pair, but if you’re an audiophile in search of flat, accurate response, look elsewhere. The Turbine is all about the low end.

George is adamant about the fact that the Moscode 402Au is not just a tube gain stage slapped onto a solid-state power amplifier; rather, it is a tube amplifier with a MOSFET output stage.
