The bass is weak, but the earphones are quite capable of producing a better bass response, you just need a well-amplified source. Your PC's on-board sound card or your mobile phone are not enough.
The vocals are clear and precise, a pleasure to listen to. The problem remains the volume. You need more 'juice' to power them up.
Even when not amplified, the highs are very clear and detailed. No distortions at all.
