JBL Tempo Headphones - Review

This is my first blogpost ever, and since I am not that good a writer, I went with the idea of reviewing JBL products that I get being a 'youth brand ambassador' - the JBL Groove Baba at Harman India. Visit our webpage here - JBL Groove Babas

Here's my review for the JBL Tempo Headphones :

Sound :
 
Bass : Amazing! – Reproduces every note with perfect clarity. Slightly louder and boomier than expected, but brilliant lows.

Mids : Good. The snares and vocals hit you like they should.

Highs : Slightly Muddy. The hi hats and cymbals can get lost in the lows. A software EQ may come in handy.

The headphones have a very warm signature. the moment you play a song, you can notice the low frequency boost that these headphones have. The treble lacks that charm but this is the best you can get in this price range.

Clarity : Very nice. Great stereo separation. 

Design : Looks great! On the ear design. Snug fit on the head – good for joggers too, the grip is comfortable and not like the notorious vice grip of the similar range sennheisers. Build quality is nice – with solid plastic and metal, and soft cushioned headband and earpads, feels very sturdy and durable.

Price : MRP – 2500, can be bought for as low as 1600.

Overall : I’d give them a 4 out of 5.

For regular listening, they are worth every penny you spend on them. But if you are an audiophile, be prepared to shell out at least three times the price that the Tempo asks for.
