Soul by Ludacris SL300 review: Soul by Ludacris SL300

The Soul Electronics SL300s are the flagship model of a line of headphones designed and curated by hip-hop artist Ludacris. With their active noise cancellation, fold-up design, and sexy features, these headphones are undoubtedly in direct competition...

The Soul by Ludacris SL300s competes with other celebrity-endorsed headphones with active noise cancellation, a comfortably padded headband, and a generous array of accessories.

An overbearing bass bump drowns out the clarity of the sonic profile, especially in songs with electronic instruments.

Although they won't satisfy audiophiles and purists, we prefer the Soul by Ludacris SL300 headphones over the competition for their sexy light-up earpieces, supreme comfort, and street-savvy noise cancellation.

Soul SL300 Usain Bolt Signature Series Over-Ear Headphones Review

These Usain Bolt SL300s are very wild, and we love them for that. But don't fret if you're looking for something a little less flashy, the SL300s are available in a few other color schemes. We have to hand it to Ludacris and Soul Headphones, they know...

Great detailed and balanced audio experience, comfortable, noise canceling works great, awesome design, collapsable, removable tangle-free cords, ControlTalk with Microphone, works without batteries, illuminated ear cup ring, and included carrying case

Poor noise isolation, feels plasticky/inexpensive, a little creaky, and battery cover cap not tethered to headphones

"These 'phones are a knockout!"

So, I've had these headphones for about 30 days now. Truthfully, I had fallen in love with these after only a couple of hours of listening to them. For me, that's a really big deal; because prior to these SL300s, I tried the SOL Republic Tracks, the...

Sound is great, stylish, comfortable

"Best all around rapper-endorsed portable headphones"

Despite being slightly critical regarding the mids and highs, these are GREAT headphones and the BEST in their class. While these wouldn't be the choice of an audiophile for home listening since I would not describe them as transparent, I will describe...

Great looking headphones, overall sound, and bass in particular, is stronger and cleaner than others. Music with bass beats will blow you away, must hear "Bossy" by Kelis and "Oh" by Ludacris and Ciara on these!

While bass is a 10 out of 10, mids are an 8 and highs are a 7. Vocals are more accurate for male vocalists than female. High end treble is a little too prominent and can be shrill on certain tracks, but can probably be fixed with EQ settings.

"Worst pair of headphones!"

Total rip off! Stay away from those.

Noise canceling works ok. Good battery life. Many accessories supplied.

Loose bass, honky sounding cause mids and highs are off balance and recessed.

Underwhelmed

I think my soundblaster fatality headphones sound better and didn't cost me near this much.

Design and comfort are great. Sounds good if you turn on the noise cancellation but not superb $300 worth

Sounds horrible unless you turn on the noise cancellation ; The included cords are way too short if you planned on using it on your computer but are just right for use with portable gadgets

Awesome Headphones

I consider myself a music enthusiasts. I bought these headphones about a month ago and was really impressed with the quality of these headphones. I had Beats by Dre before, but I dropped them and they broke. I decided to try something new and stumbled...
