SOL Republic Tracks Headphones with Ultra OnEar V12 Sound Engine (tauschbares Headband) Blue (Electronics)

Customer Review

If something just literally from the ground like mushrooms shoots, then there are new manufacturers of premium headphones that especially a promise to their buyers a listening experience that has no equal. In addition to the hype surrounding the famous Beats by Dre, now the rapper 50 Cent lined up with its own brand SMS Audio and just Sol Republic and give the over-ear headphones their revival.

The indecisive buyers therefore find it difficult to decide on which baby you're spending your money (after all, we are talking with all brands of about 170-200 Euro). Good You see all of what they can offer but hörtechnisch?

SOL REPUBLIC V12 a review

In the following are reported about how the Sol-Republic in direct comparison with my Beats by Dre. Wireless beat.

Design and processing:

If one has the Sol-Republic first freed from its packaging, then bribe the headset with its timeless, simple but just by very stylish look. Thus, the headphone is kept in a beautiful smoke-blue, a looker deliver the white leather elements on the headband and the ear cups. In addition, the surface of the speaker has a corrugated metal look, paired with the chrome SOL train. Really? With headphones you should surely reap some looks. Design Technically absolute hit my taste.

And the processing? The is also perfectly fine. The head-band is extremely flexible and is expected to give up his spirit only under enormous force. The cushion elements are also bonded clean. The cable is flexible, but makes a stable impression. Likewise, the mounted volume control, which I very much hope that it lasts longer than that of my beats (this has been more carefully after a few months! Treatment suddenly apart down the adhesive was too weak) .Insgesamt make the headset a very good impression, As for the processing. My beats they are in no way inferior in any case.

But you should be careful with some scratches on the head-band. With its piano finish, unfortunately, make a quick fine scratches. For the transport so you should use in any case the supplied bag, or sticking a film on the headband if you want to enjoy it as long.

A point at which I'm still not really conclusive yet, if he brings more advantages or not, is the Headband. Positive both earcups pulled off easily. If the headband so it break even, then you can replace it cheaply, without having to send in the entire headset. Fantastic Thing. In addition, the adjustment to the head size works just fine and the earcups are tight enough on the Headband that a permanent slides can be ruled out.
A disadvantage of this bracket it can not be collapsed, as is the case with the beats. In transportation, the headphones are somewhat bulky. For me, but not a very big problem.

FIT:

In addition to the appearance of course spiet Whatever the fit an important role in musical enjoyment. If it decides not but how long can you keep the baby on his head without risking headache or ear pain.
At first I had some concerns, there was to read on the Internet again and again that the Sol come up with pretty little ears. Compared with the beats, they are also not less.
Overall, the sol sit with me but a bit better than my beats. Press me less and adapt to the ear and head shape I find (for me) more advantageous. Whoever is here undecided, maybe you should try before buy once in the store several models.

SOUND

We come to the most important criterion of every headphone the sound.
Here my first impression when compared to the beats was initially rather more sober style. The Sol have shown less powerful in the bass range, as the model of competition. Therefore, the sounds seemed initially less lively and engaging.
But I would advise everyone to fiddle a bit with the Sol and the settings on the PC to test the MP3 player etc..
So I have been playing around with the equalizer program of beats (was on my HP DV7 Beats) and made some adjustments. And lo and behold suddenly pick up the Sol right out what made the songs. The sound has a lot more lively cast, dynamic, clear and really well matched. So the highs are clean to hear the centers are there and also the bass is clearly visible and gives the pieces power. Even at high volumes, I feel that the Sol provide a clean sound, is the reason for joy. The beats are indeed the bass still strong and it pushes itself clearly to the fore, but that can sometimes be a problem. So the centers are unfortunately somewhat swallowed and the sound heard in the overall package a bit spongy / scratchy on.
I find that as a somewhat more balanced Sol create sound that just makes fun not only of music with lots of bass.

CONCLUSION:

By design, the right response and also the comfort to be proud of. Even after prolonged wear, I can note any major problems. In addition, I think it's a good idea to provide the Headband as an interchangeable. If it thus nevertheless break times, you can make a relatively inexpensive change here. Something about pity you can not fold and stowed away the headphones.

Even the sound of the Sol could me (though not complete until the second attempt) inspire. They provide a full sound without an element to be the main focus. This has a positive effect especially at high volumes.
Here you should so quiet times experiment with different settings to achieve the right for themselves sound quality.

Overall good, recommended headphones in the price range on 100th
