What Experts Says About Boat Bassheads 950 In-Ear Headphones

When you unbox the boat beatbox 950 you might mistake it for a pair of wireless Bluetooth headphones, because the main body does not have any wires attached to it. The headphones are made out of plastic but the metallic finish gives this device a premium look. The earcups on these headphones swivel inwards which makes it easy to fold and store the Bassheads 950.

We found the headset to be light, and the cushioned headband makes it comfortable to wear. You can adjust the headband for length. We found the clamping force to be average. Both the earcups have 2.5mm sockets for the audio cable that is bundled in the box. The audio cable has a Y-splitter with a microphone and multi-function button on the left side. This opens up the option for users to swap the cable for a new one in the event it gets damaged. Boat provides rexine ear cushions which are comfortable when worn, but these will cause your ears to feel warm after using the headset for long durations.

The Boat Bassheads 950 has a bass-heavy sonic signature with only a slight spike in the highs. We aren't surprised since the company advertises this proudly in the product's name. At lower volumes, we noticed that the low-end tends to overpower the other frequencies. However, at higher volumes, the mids were slightly better. If you prefer boomy bass, the Bassheads 950 delivers on that front, but we found the overall audio quality to be muddy. In a few tracks that are bass-heavy we could feel our ears tingling.
