Man I almost got those till I read a couple reviews saying the weren't that comfortable for extended listening sessions.


I think I may still get them for my computer. I fell in the beast trap :beli: but I get mad attention in the gym can't lie :yeshrug:
I can testify I just came home from an 8 hour flight and those headphones are amazing. Everything is leveled off so nicely and you can hear pretty much everything. I have all of the beats(Studio, Solo HD, Mixr, Pro, Detox edition) and while the bass on them are nice thats about all you can say about them. They bleed out also so damn near everyone can hear what you listening to. The Pro's are almost like torture trying to wear for extended periods of time, the Solos are cool but bleed, the Studio are nice and are the most comfortable but the Mixr are the best beats IMO. They dont bleed as much.

I'll put my Audio Technica M50 against anything.

i got a pair on right now bumpin Jay Z on Pandora.what i like about them is they dont lie to you at all and give you fake bass or hi hats .what you hear is just how they made the music.the leather do start to make your ears hurt after a wile but im going to cop those fluffy cups i seen somewhere online.

I knew when I bought mine that they were a rip off and were a terrible value, but I thought **** it I'll pay the premium for that industrial design. Any other expensive headphones I saw looked goofy as fukk. I took the L on that decision tho :sadcam: I am not an audio guy in the least but the sound quality on the pro's CLEARLY isn't worth what you pay for. And cosign on them being uncomfortable. The headband isn't even padded all the way, I can always feel the metal edge digging into my head and the cups aren't comfortable.

Besides my Pioneer HDJ-100 Limited Edition Headphones.

I recommend buying a Fiios E11 and some good $50 dollar headphones if you are on a budget. And I bet my Pioneer's you will be satisfied. If you have headphones that can be "overclocked" with the Fiios you are good money. No need for $300 dollar headphones unless you are a producer. And/or you don't fukk with anything under FLAC.


I'm promise you.....cop the Fiios and lets say.........

Even Base/Treble
Amazon.com: Sennheiser HD203 Closed-Back DJ Headphones: Electronics


Moar Bass/Stable Treble
Amazon.com: Sony MDR-XB700 Extra Bass Headphones: Electronics

Some good quality audio files and you will be :ehh: :ld: :win: :ooh: :ahh: :shaq: :youngsabo:

IN that exact order.

But for my OGs.

For my next YOLO cop. I'm going to get either the HD598, DT 990 or MDR/XB1000.

you're fooling yourselves if you dont believe Beats are about the Aesthetics as much as their so called "quality"

Im sure there are plenty of headphones that you can purchase with the same quality at half the cost
