    Beats By Dre's are definitely not shit headphones. They are miles better than general consumer headphones that were out before them.

    OBVIOUSLY there are better, though they were not in general stores, you had to find pro-audio stores to get some DT100's etc, but Monster were not trying to replace pro audio monitor headphones etc.

    If you don't like them, that is your choice. But you can't say they are shit when compared to the crap most products would give with their music devices prior to their release.

    I personally think they are great for fun bass heavy use, I wouldn't wear them out in the street, but thats a personal choice. But I wouldn't look down on anyone else who did enjoy them, they are just headphones after all.

    • they are FUCKING SHIT compared to 99% of $300 headphones, and that's a fucking factmonospaced
    • they have colored sound, it's nowhere near "flat," and they have the audacity to charge that much... it's fuckedmonospaced
    • also, you're insane to imply that headphones before Beats were not good.monospaced
    • I have headphones that are 20 years old that sound better than the beatsmonospaced
    • They aint forcing anyone to buy them? you can live without them you know. Its a choice, if people don't like, don't buysem
    • Beat your old headphones don't have the bass of Studio Dre's for a fact. And some people like that.sem
    • Agreed: any self-respecting person who enjoys quality sound agrees that Beats suck and won't buy them.monospaced
    • Yes, some people like bass that is shit sounding. And my old headphones are still better at that than Beats.monospaced
    • And I didn't say ALL headphones before Dre's were shit, I said MOST general consumer headphones like you would get with MP3 players etcsem
    • would get with MP3 players etc...sem
    • Your "facts" are so fucking bullshit it's not even funny.monospaced
    • popcorn.gifZOOP
    • why would you buy headphones you wouldn't wear out on the street?scarabin
    • Really? please do tell me what high quality headphones you found in general high street chain stores before?sem
    • AKGs, Sonys, Sennheisers for starters... all have been making better sounding headphones for years before Beatsmonospaced
    • Jesus, even an old pair of digital JVCs has better sound.monospaced
    • And all for under $300 too.monospaced
    • With studio sound, and the ability to reproduce bass at a quality better than the Beatsmonospaced
    • scarabin, for private music use in the house.sem
    • end of the day, its all personal opinion. I don't think they are shit though, far from shit for sure.sem
    • Obviously the price is high, but thats because the demand was there. Don't hate them for profit gain lolsem
    • The price is high because they have the name attached and tons of marketing. They are still shit, but that's okay to like it.monospaced
    • Read ANY review and you'll see the consensus is that they are shit.monospaced
    • I don't hate them because they made $, only because they brainwashed people into paying that much for shit.monospaced
    • A, if you can be brainwashed into buying stuff, more fool you. B, your review "facts" don't add up to sales facts.sem
    • Apple computers are over-priced, but thats ok? They are a business and great at it. You reason for hating them is personal choice.sem
    • personal choice, and thats fine. But you can't say they give shit audio quality. Shit quality would be standard earbud headphones.sem
    • I have used MANY headphones over the years in high end studios, but BBD are FUN with bass stuff. So I enjoy them for that.sem
    • I understand you enjoy that. But they ARE shit. Read ANY quality review. It's a pure fact.monospaced
    • There are tons of headphones at the same cost that are leagues better. That's all I'm saying.monospaced
    • Yes of corse, the DT series piss all over them. But they are not as fun, they are work headphones.sem
    • Its like a PC can be "better" spec wise but not as simple and fun and inspiring as a Mac.sem
    • bwaahahaha... beats aren't inspiring, in any way, especially not in soundmonospaced
    • and how the hell are they "fun" compare to others? do they tell you jokes? c'monmonospaced
    • anyway, I don't want to argue since you clearly love your fun, shit sounding beats that get pissed on by 99% of 'phonesmonospaced
    • Most people that purchased BBD's don't care for quality anyway, they prob have low rip mp3 files.sem
    • But they like the headphones cos the bass rattles their head, its fun. And you can't hate them for enjoying it.sem
    • Pissed on by 99% of phones? more like 40% if that. But still, I do enjoy them :)sem
    • "beats aren't inspiring" you can't speak for everyone. Many producers would disagree.sem
    • Many make tracks with them, and them mix the songs after the pre-production is done cos it saves mixing low end.sem
    • hahahaha, I bet they do...monospaced
    • do you like the cars, the cars that go 'boom?' :Dmonospaced
    • also... don't take it so personally because the entire audiophile industry says they're shitmonospaced
    • if you have fun with them, good for you. just don't go around saying they're great soundmonospaced
    • have a nice weekend, I'm outmonospaced
    • *hug* we cool? good. And I don't care what audiophile people say, I care for what my own ears like :) they serve me well.sem
    • well, and have brought me much happiness :) I just won't get you no BBD for Xmas, just socks?sem
    • empty_popcorn_bag.gi...ZOOP
