As it appears, Jolly Roger is all about the packaging, and maybe design, but their products are actually very avarage and they have QA issues, since I got a defective pair. Don't get these earphones.

Lows / Bass
The bass is loud but extremely distorted, these earphones failed to properly reproduce bass and failed the bass shaker test badly.
Mids / Vocals
The vocals are OK, but nothing special. Sibilant vocals can be heard because of the peaks in the highs. Pretty average mids and there isn't anything else to say about them.
Highs / Treble
The highs are exaggerated and sound slightly harsh, but not too much. No special detail can be heard though. Pretty typical highs.
