Just got mine today. Still have to give them solid tests over multiple scenarios and devices but, against the Skullcandy Smokin' Buds 2 I've been wearing, the TuneFreq's do not offer a better listening experience.
It's not a bad listening experience, but I am not hearing the promised balance. In fact, it seems to me that lows, mids and highs simply stop working together through these earphones. I am not what I would consider to be an audiophile, but the mids seem to be the star. Highs are kind of shrill and the bass is the most disappointing experience since I was expecting that with bass being handled by a separate driver that it would be more punchy. Every other pair of wireless earphones I have ever owned sounded more fun, even though the quality of the bass on the TuneFreqs was pretty good. The bass I experience was never just a 'buzz' in my ear.
I've been listening to the same song (Deep River by Hikaru Utada) on both sets of wireless buds on different devices and the SB2's consistently sound better. I almost feel as if the right drivers are outperforming the left drivers so perhaps I got a bum unit.
I've had the SB2's for almost a year though, so maybe the TuneFreq's need break in. Regardless, they are not currently outperforming my previous set.
mass_seanSound quality just took a nose dive. Not sure what happened, but after leaving them charging over night I couldn't recommend these earbuds to anyone if they perform this way. I may just have to contact the manufacturer. I think I do have a bum unit.
mass_seanHello mass_sean, Please contact customerservice@logiix.net with an image and a receipt of your headphones, so we can replace this product for you! We apologize for any inconvenience caused.
mass_seanHi Mass_sean! An email of an image of both receipt and headphone would start the replacement process. We have informed our customer service team, and they are looking to hear from you!
mass_seanJust received my replacement unit. The imbalance I was experiencing before is gone. They definitely are more fun to listen to. Bass seems improved over the model I had before and I can now say I prefer the sound from these over my SB2's.
They aren't the most detailed earphones, but I don't think that was their emphasis. I like what I am hearing from them. Now, I just need time to see if they have the stamina my SB2's have. I view them as generally recommendable based solely on sound.
