Just ordered Beats by Dr. Dre (white)

Just tried the beats solo at best buy yesterday, they sound worse then the beats. And when I went to take them of my head they snapped in half! I was shocked lol

Well, if you aren't an audiophile, just use the stock headphones and be happy about it.

Second vote for the Audio-technica M-50s. Great headphones at a great price. Actually prefer these to Bayer 880s (much more expensive cans).

I've tried the beats. They aren't awful headphones, but WAY overpriced for what you get. On par with headphones in the $75-$100 range soundwise, but with a really chincy feel.
 
Opinions are like ass holes

everyone has one and thinks theirs doesn't stink


when choosing a headset the first thing to consider should be budget

its really not fair to compare $20 Skullcandy headphones to $200 ones

they are meant for different markets, but doesn't mean either is a "better buy"

I wouldn't call anyone delusional for feeling what they feel about certain products. What I can say is I expect each time I come to this forum is the total put down of other peoples choices. I could care less if any of you are audiophiles or mad scientist- the bottom line is what satisfies our unique individual listening pleasures. What some of you may think is top of the line and must haves, some of us don't think that way!!

Obviously, as any opinion is subjective as to the diversity of the person answering this question.

But I have owned a pair of Shures, the Apple in-ears, the Bose in-ears, Beats Tour (returned due to lack of in-line remote control/mic), and other crappy pair.

I bought & returned the Shures, Apple & Bose. None of them provided deep bass and honestly, I don't get the Bose hype. There hasn't been one headphone they've made thats made me say these are the ones to keep.

I loved my Solos but returned them due to driving laws and headsets. Even though they have the control talk mic, it wasn't worth getting stopped for. I switched up for the Tours which are much more discreet, the bass is phenomenal and the control talk mic does everything it's supposed to do. I've use them on my iPod Touch and BlackBerry Tour.

I've snatched them off my head; have even dropped them a few times and they never broke. Did you grab them by one side to pull them off your head? Since you tried them at BestBuy it's a good guess they were display models and there's no telling how much they may have been abused before you came along.
