Sol Republic Soundtrack Pro Headphones Review

There are many benefits to Sol Republic Soundtrack pro headphones. They look well, sound good, and are comparatively comfy. However, they are missing noise cancellation, which is one issue with Sol Republic Soundtrack pro headphones. On the other hand, the Sol Republic Soundtrack headphones are useful in this situation.

At $200, the Soundtrack Pro headphones are not inexpensive. Even while those are less expensive than certain other high-end noise-cancelling headphones, such as the Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones, they are still quite expensive. 

The SOL REPUBLIC has remained rather quiet over the last couple of years, but with the feature-rich SOL REPUBLIC Soundtrack Pro, it hopes to make a major statement. The Soundtrack Pro claims long battery life and excellent performance as it enters the competitive market for mid-range Bluetooth noise-cancelling headphones. Does the Soundtrack Pro stand out for the right reasons, given some odd audio glitches and the lack of essential features?

About Sol Republic Soundtrack Pro Headphones 

The SOL REPUBLIC Soundtrack Pro resembles a standard pair of noise-cancelling headphones in appearance and comfort. The headphones come in black, gold, or grey and have a strong, minimalist plastic construction.

SOL REPUBLIC is a high-end pair of headphones that doesn’t come with many accessories. There is a charging cord and a 3.5mm connector in the box; there is no carrying case. Additionally, these headphones don’t have a companion app. Thus, there are no EQ tweaks, noise cancellation adjustments, headphone tracking adjustments, or firmware updates available.

Despite having a plastic construction, the Soundtrack Pro seems durable enough to throw in a bag and is portable and lightweight. It would be best if you did not think of these headphones as fitness, either because they aren’t sweat- or water-resistant. The ear cups are not very relaxing, and the clamping force is rather strong, so using the headphones for more than an hour can be uncomfortable, especially if you wear spectacles.

Sol Republic Soundtrack Pro Headphones Review

There are many benefits to Sol Republic Soundtrack headphones. They look well, sound good, and are comparatively comfy. However, they are missing noise cancellation, which is one issue. On the other hand, the Sol Republic Soundtrack Pro headphones are useful in this situation.

Design

Although it’s not terrible, the Sol Republic Soundtrack Pro headphones resemble the normal Soundtrack headphones almost perfectly. Several colors are available for the headphones, including Black, Gray, and Champagne. Reviewing the black model, we appreciate its overall svelte and fashionable appearance. The green cloth within the ear cups also gives them a lighthearted touch.

There is a main power button, which on this model also operates the noise canceling, as well as a set of volume controls and a central control button. There is also a USB-C port and an aux port for wired use. The box includes an aux wire and a USB-C charging cord along with the headphones. For a pair of $200 headphones, it’s unfortunate that there isn’t a bag or carrier case here.

Sound

These headphones provide decent sound quality, which is what we anticipate from a pair costing around $200. If you’re an audiophile and want a natural experience, look elsewhere because there is tweaking here. However, everyone else will take it seriously. Enjoy the available sound quality. To begin with, the bass response is robust and deep, ensuring that bass guitars sound great and kick drums can easily cut through a mix.

These headphones also have fantastic mids. They are a touch scooped, but not too much; you’ll still get adequate warmth in the low mids and good vocal reproduction, for example.

Here, many high frequencies are available, making the song more dynamic and detailed. There is a reasonable amount of vocal sibilance to assist vocals to stand out more, and the cymbals sizzle wonderfully.

These headphones have decent noise cancellation, which will effectively block out the majority of traffic or airplane engine sounds. There is simply one issue: noise cancellation dramatically alters the headphones’ overall frequency response. The sound is often much thinner, and the Bass is significantly reduced when noise cancellations are turned on. Considering how well these headphones perform in other areas, that is disappointing.

Comfort

The headphones’ comfort level is also extremely comparable to the basic Soundtrack headphones. The ear cups have adequate padding and generally fit well on the head. These headphones’ relatively tight clamp is the primary complaint about their comfort. It won’t be a significant deal for most people, and you’ll get used to it eventually, but it’s still something to be aware of.

Performance

The Sol Republic Soundtrack Pro headphones pair with your device through Bluetooth 5.0, and during testing, we discovered that they maintained a good connection. They also offer excellent battery life, lasting 32 hours on a single charge. With normal use, it’s safe to say that these headphones will survive for weeks, which is always useful.

How do you control the SOL REPUBLIC Soundtrack Pro? 

A button on the bottom of the right ear cup turns on or off the headphones, enters pairing mode, or switches between listening modes. Three buttons on the right ear cup control music playback (ANC, transparency, off). Not to mention the mental gymnastics needed to recall all the different combinations of button taps; the buttons are small and challenging to push. The entire process is undoubtedly less user-friendly than the touch controls available on most other Bluetooth headphones.

Conclusion

There are many advantages to the Sol Republic Soundtrack Pro headphones. They sound amazing, are well-designed, and are comfortable. Noise cancellation is the primary benefit of these headphones over conventional Soundtrack headphones. Thus, it’s disappointing that they sound less well with it on. Is there a better pair of noise-cancelling headphones in this price range, considering the altered sound? Okay, sure. The Sennheiser HD 4.50 BTNC headphones are the best noise-cancelling headphones for under $200. Nevertheless, these headphones offer a lot, so we’ve given them the Headphone Review Silver Medal.
