JBL Pure Bass Sound

I think true deep bass can only be experienced with an over ear closed headphones.

5.8mm driver is hella small.

I think its more about the fit and the seal of the ear tips and how far they sit in your ear canal to give you deep bass tones.

Well they're 6.8mm but still. And deep bass isn't even heard, it's felt. Below 20hz most don't hear it at all.

Edit: I was looking at the different set, nvm me.

I think "Pure Bass Sound" is nothing more than a meaningless marketing ploy that has nothing to do with actual sound quality.

Well pure bass sound to me is clean, undistorted bass without anything rattling in my car or house. I just had to make a new attic hatch since the subwoofers I have were about to blow the old, thin one up into the attic lol.
