    GREAT HEADPHONES! BAD COMFORTIBILITY =/

    Written by RL from New York

    Oct 31, 2009

    Well, I bought these headphone... For actually I bought the sound. It does better 999999x than the other headphones ever!

    But, even the earcups really soft, it's still hurt my ear parts. And, I tried to pull out the earcups and suddenly it's spread ********************* erm, buzzing noise I meant... It's really hurt my ears =/

    Amazing Sound Quality

    Written by DS

    Oct 29, 2009

    Love these headphones. The bass is incredible and they're very comfortable. My only complaint is that they have minor sound leakage. Fortunately, I have great taste in music, so I look at it as more of a benefit for those around me. Well worth the money and at least as good as my previous pair (Bose) of over ear headphones.

    Decent

    These headphones are good but not great. They give you really really really good bass, have I said really good already? Well anyways some problems i had was that they leak the music, in other words people can hear what you're hearing. They are also not "true" noise cancelling headphones. That being said I'm going to return these for the Bose QC15. There are some draw back such as not have the awesome feature to change song, answer phone calls from the built in remote or pausing songs.

    Best Headphones I've ever had...

    Written by NV from Hemer

    I'm an amature DJ and love House-Music! This Headphones are really not only for Hip-Hop or R'n'B (even if it's incredible, too). The bass hits hard, the mids are awesome and so is the design. A must-have for everyone who loves music and needs convenient headphones!

    Excellent sound, function, and style, but expensive

    Written by JG from Castro Valley

    Don't listen to the snobs. The Beats by Dr. Dre provide excellent sound. They compare favorably with the justly-legendary Koss PortaPro headphones; perhaps some might consider they sound slightly better, considering their isolation and depth of timbre. Add to the fact that their noise cancelation excises most steady, droning noise (fans, air conditioning, engine sounds) and their exquisite design, and you have a great audio and fashion accessory to your iPod or iPhone. With its supplied mic-enabled cable, it becomes a usable iPhone headset, which the 25-year-old classic Koss pair can't offer.

    The Koss PortaPros come with a lifetime no-questions asked warranty and cost around $50. The Beats by Dr. Dre come with a 3-year limited warranty and cost $300.

    I'm keeping my Beats and I'm quite happy with them. They make me enjoy my music collection (not a lot of hip-hop or R&B in it either) more than ever, and I love the utility of the mic cable for my iPhone. But let's not pretend these aren't as much a statement of conspicuous consumption as a piece of audio equipment. You'd buy Beats for the reason you'd buy a MacBook Air.

    Worth it for me!

    Of course the price point is up there but, the quality and sound is bar none. These headphones have taken me to the places I want to go in the music, with everything else secondary! During this very difficult time in my life, music is a must to mend the broken pieces.

    great but try them on first

    These headphones are amazing. The bass is incredible and they are very comfy. The only thing i found is that in tight quiet areas
    they leak noise. The other thing i love about these headphones is that they are great looking. finally no more of that black and grey like bose .

    Ya its good, but is it worth it? Nope

    Written by CS

    Placed at the price of $300, I was really curious to know how these headphone sounded like. Luckily, I had a friend who bought one and lend me to try for a week.

    First impression, I think it looks incredible, I love the look. The black and red theme worked really well together, but thats just the look, I am more interested in the sound. Then, I realized the noise cancellation, I don't really have any love with NC headphones because it kind of ruins the sound quality... but it won't be a deal-breaker for me. I connected to my iPod touch and played "Bitter Sweet Symphony" right away. Wow... yes... wow, that was only word I could say. Not in a good way, but in a disappointed way. To be honest, they sounded like my $55 portable headphones, the start with the violins were the pretty much the same as my portable AKG K450. Since it's called the "Beats" I expected huge bass, and yes, there was a lot of bass. However, I thought it sounded a bit hollow and empty, not a good impression.

    I listened for about 3 hours on different variety of music, U2, Coldplay, Bon Jovi, Kanye West, Akon to Jack Johnson, Bryan Adams and Pink. I even let myself listened to Mozart and Tchaicovsky. And yes, only the more "beat" and "bass" songs sounded good, the others were all disappointing. Probably because of the noise-cancellation. NC headphones only work when you are on a plane, it pretty much blocks out the engine noise. In normal occasions, including public transport, a good closed back headphone (AKG K450 priced with $100) can do the same thing on a bus.

    Finally I asked myself, what makes these headphone $300? $300 is fierce, it's hard to imagine this headphone is more expensive than the Sennheiser HD600, Alessandro MS2, Audio Technica ESW9 and puts it awfully close to the AKG K701, which are all headphone supremes. In my opinion, I think this headphones is worth about $150 THE MOST, $300 is overwhelming and unreasonable (like most Monster products). But again, I guess Jay-Z and Monster are selling these to the teenagers who thinks their Skullcandys are too dull and no longer cool enough to bring it too school.

    Best headphones ever!

    Written by RM from Montreal

    I just got those headphones and pretty much like every one else I'm just amazed to see how good the sound quality is even though the price is pretty intense... not everyone can afford 300$ headphones.
