Beats by Dre Beats Studio High-Definition Headphones

The only reason that people buy these is because they are made by Dre. They are way overpriced and when I've used them, all I can hear is bass. I think you can definitely buy better headphones for a lot smaller price. Don't buy these.

Since today is Black Friday, and they mark off products... Bye some beats for your kids or yourself. Great quality and amazing!!

Absolute crap for professional mixing...WAY too much boost in the low end...sounds like at least +6dB below 150Hz, and that's waaaaaay too much. Noise cancellation, so neither you nor your vocalist will accurately be able to hear what you are singing...too much of a boost in the high end as well, something like +4dB or more beyond 5KHz...if you want to listen to music, then that's just fine, 5/5. But if you actually want to professionally produce and mix a track and distribute it to your label owners without the embarrassment of not being able to properly mix a track, go somewhere else. Grado, Sennheiser, and Beyer-Dynamic have a LOT better in their higher end products, which are actual STUDIO headphones (for those unaware, these are professionally referred to as "Monitor Headphones", not "Studio headphones" - your first clue that the developer of Beats doesn't have a clue about true or professional audio production). To end my rant, it's a waste of money. If I wanted a pair of headphones that gave me more bass, i'd buy a $40 pair of Sony's, and I'd use the built-in EQ presets on my mp3 player.

Abosutly amazing if you just want to bump. but way over priced you can get bose qc15 for same price and way better sound.

these headphones are perfect. there isn't one single thing wrong with them in my opinion, and the sound is phenomenal. as for the price and the value, yes you can get just as good of headphones for a lot cheaper, and yes these may be a bit over priced.

as far as head phones go, these are the best.

1. these headphones have a lot of moving pieces to them, I can easily see myself breaking them in a couple of months. It comes with a carrying case (good move) and an extra cord.

2. They run on 2 triple AAA batteries. So If you don't like turning Off your headphones then these aren't for you. Honestly I'm plugged into a computer all day, so I can see myself tearing through batteries.

3. The sound is crisp good highs and good lows. The base is a bit much for me, but I can't hear anyone around me at work so that is a plus.

4. These are snug headphones, I can't wear them all day.

Overall- I think these are solid headphones, but for the price I feel like they should come gold plated. I really enjoy my Skullcandy Aviators, they have better sound quality and I can wear them all day without my ears hurting.

Having used these before, I can honestly say that I was impressed with the sound quality. However, the price seems a bit outlandish to me. I own a pair of Aviator7 chopper headphones that were about $80 and the sound quality from those is just as good, if not better than the Beats. The build quality on the Beats is not too amazing either. The way I see it, these headphones are like Ferrari cars: you pay for the looks and the name, but you can find other brands that are less expensive that perform just as well. If you really want to spend this much on headphones, get a nice pair of Bose. But hey, they are an effective way to display your wealth.

They sound good out of the box and are a bit colored on the low frequencies. Reason I gave a 4 star rating is because i'm rating on how good this product is, not how good of a value is this headphone.

That being said, I'd pick Audio-technica ATH-M50 or Sennheiser HD25's over these any day of the week.
