I've listened to them at Best Buy and they sound pretty damn good, but for that price you could get better.

I too have listened to them in best buy. The bass is WAY overpowering and muddy. I didn't like them at all.

Anything you find at Best Buy you can find better for the same price elsewhere. Their top of the line speakers are by Bose, enough said.

As much as I like to trust the good doctor (Detox better finally come out in '09...), this is where I draw the line. For $300 you could do wayyy better.

Extreme bass. Its was like having a car sub in my ear. They are also very expensive compared to the competition.
