It's all just hipster "look how much I spent to look like a prick" willy-waving
You can get much better headphones for around £50 or less, but they don't have the same street cred with the tosser community.

All Beats do is make your compressed mp3s a bit louder and bassier.

Does fit seamlessly with the worst kind of iPhone fanbois, though.

The real reason for Apple buying Beats isn't headphones anyway, it's their music streaming business and all the licensing that goes with it

Wearing headphones in public makes you look like a bit mentally ill.
Earbuds for outside. Headphones indoors.

I've got a £30 pair of SoundMagik earbuds they sound good and don't fall out of my lugs like the cheap ones.
(, Fri 30 May 2014, 10:37, Reply)
I've never invested because of the above
I don't give a shit how good the sound quality is or is claimed to be, £200+ for cans is ridiculous. You're buying the brand, not the product, you're buying the chance to look flash when you walk down the street and prey upon the easily impressed.

So I'm not at all surprised that Dozer knows all about them ;-)

Some people prefer listening through headphones in their house
Which I can understand if you have small kids or thin walls. But you can buy studio quality headphones for under £100.

oh yeah loads of studios will be using £15 headphones wont they. or perhaps they are for amateur pricks who are into 'hi-fi' and 'audio'

Apply some yoghurt, that might help the odour.
Just be careful not to stab yourself with one of the prongs.

It's worth noting that 90% of studio headphones are shit in terms of sound reproduction.
They just don't fall apart that easily.

The idea for monitoring is that you don't wan't anything to colour the sound and have 'MEGA BASS' turned up to 'the max'

(, Fri 30 May 2014, 9:58, Reply)
That's why the best studio monitor speakers are actually considered to sound pretty crap
the idea being if you can mix your stuff to sound ok through them, then it will sounds brilliant through everything else.

Yes, I know, Yamaha NS-10 for instance, but then you can probably find something cheaper AND better

They have too much bass.

This doesn't surprise me frankly
That would wind me up, but apparently Apple just slung $3bn Beats' way. They're totally addicted to bass.
(, Fri 30 May 2014, 9:25, Reply)
actually, they're alright for bassy music, but terrible for music which requires decent high end
They'd be bollocks for mixing.

I'll know to differentiate between decent DJs and posers by their headphones.
