    ^^^ preach.

    Hating on them is the new "cool" thing to do because they have become what "cool" people call mass marketed crap. Personally though I have been guilty in the past of other things, being superficial over headphones has not been on my list of bad judgements made.

    People can argue all day over quality, but its a personal preference. Its like arguing about EQ and Compressor settings on audio, there is no set standard that everyone likes. And at the end of the day the average person listening to music likes the boost in the bass area, rather than the full freq spectrum so they can perfect a mix etc.

    I can understand why people wouldn't like them, because some people who have them make out they are the best headphones out, which they are not. But not everyone knows or cares to know different, much like most won't know the difference between 16 and 24bit audio.
