You have to plunge into the Ult Wear’s warm and bass-heavy presentation to find Sony’s intention with it and some tracks do sound much fuller and richer with the pulsating bottom end. So while keeping our fingers happily away from the ULT button, Eternal sounds fun. It never needed a bass boost but it does sound fuller and full-bodied with Chance the Rapper’s vocals dictating the rhythm. The Sony Ult Wear doesn’t inherently sound unpleasant for hip-hop tracks. Still, Kendrick Lamar wouldn’t have expected you to appreciate Die Hard for its bass over his lyrical apologies.
