trutrojan8 Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 I'm pretty sure Ty got them for Xmas, but anyone else who has them -- how do you like them? I never really considered them much until I was messing around at Best Buy today and loved the sound quality out of them. I'm thinking about the Beats Solo HD, they're I think $230 and I have nothing better to spend my $200 of Best Buy giftcards on ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't expect to hear them over a space shuttle taking off for example. Beats, Bose(yuck), etc are not true noise canceling either.

magicbalala245 Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 I was also looking into some solo's but the solo's do not have noise canceling. And do not fold up. Which is why I like the Studio's better which have bigger ear cups, fold, and are noise canceling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lkr Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 I know my Grado fanboy friend would kill me for not posting it, but the SR80i is also a solid choice:http://www.amazon.com/Grado-Prestige-SR80i-Stereo-Headphone/dp/B000G3LCQC/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1293606642&sr=1-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking about the Beats Solo HD, they're I think $230 and I have nothing better to spend my $200 of Best Buy giftcards on haYeah I bought them for myself a month ago. It was pretty much an Xmas gift to myself. They are good, definitely don't regret the purchase. I got the black Solo HD's for 199 at Best Buy btw... I'm sure there are better options out there, but I had limited to try out at Best Buy so I went with them. I liked the sleek look and so far they've been good. The control talk feature is nice when working out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you have the money they are good headphones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trutrojan8 Posted December 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Plus the resell value, I'm sure if I decided to sell them I'd get way more for a pair of Dres than a pair of $200 Seinsaucer or w/e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lkr Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 lol Sennheiser is an actual brand unlike Monster. It is actually used in studios. But if you don't care about sound quality, just by some iPod earbuds. Btw, your tattoo thread shows you don't care how [expletive]ty something looks. For $150-200 less, my eh150s look and sound better than beats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could give a [expletive] if one of my friends doesn't like it, but someone I'll never meet over the internet, who spends too much time on newegg.com looking at reviews all day?

Beats aren't even open air, they would never be used in a studio. The sound quality it produces is nowhere close to reference.

Obviously you care tt, other wise you wouldn't be getting mad like you always do.If I wanted an opinion on some brand I've never heard of, I would've labeled the title something like Help me find headphones. This has nothing to do w/ seinfeldsaucer, I'm obviously not even considering it considering I've never mentioned it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't referring to any type of commercial advertisement; which I've never even see a commercial for Beat by Dre in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lkr Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 (edited) I've actually seen them in a few photo's and video's being used by rappers in the studio. I wasn't referring to any type of commercial advertisement; which I've never even see a commercial for Beat by Dre in general.Those could very easily be endorsements. On top of that, I doubt many if any rappers actually do the actual producing technical work. By the way, tt, of course you've never heard of Sennheiser. Mainly because you think Beats are going to be a good product. I bet you've never heard of Denon either, despite the fact that they make the best av receivers. You probably think Bose speakers sound good The fact that you continuously spell the name wrong on purpose just further proves the fact that you're immature and don't listen to anyone. Spend more money on an inferior product, not like it matters to you as you're spoiled anyway. Edited December 30, 2010 by Lkr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sun Tzu Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 http://blog.360dgrs.nl/wp-content/uploads/beatstour.jpg ^ I've got those one. Only reason I got those instead of Sennheisers are because they were cheaper, well the place I got it from. Otherwise I would have gotten Sennheisers.

There aren't any you can test out at Best Buy Well I can tell a huge difference between them and the normal iPod earphones but honeslty if you're buying them for like $200 or so I would rather just get Sennheiser earphones, never used them but I hear they're great.

Riot Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Dang I was gonna buy a book but after looking at this thread I think I might buy those Sennheiser HD 202 headphones. Only 26 bucks on Amazon. I've been using iPod earbuds that I got with my Mini 5 or 6 years ago so these things are going to sound amazing.

Only 26 bucks on Amazon. I've been using iPod earbuds that I got with my Mini 5 or 6 years ago so these things are going to sound amazing. HD 202s quite pack a punch. My friend's finally broke after 3 years of heavy use(bad wire management caused it to snap ), but he was happy about it because he was able to get these: http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-HD-280-Pro-Headphones/dp/B000065BPB/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1293677971&sr=8-1 Nothing beats the 202s at that price though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trutrojan8 Posted January 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 I picked em up today, they were far and away the best ones at the store [at least out of the ones I could try.] I tried a $120 Sony, the Bose [minus the QC15], and some no name $40 that was apparently good since I never heard of it, and they were all [expletive] compared to Beats I definitely do love them, they stay on my head a lot better than I thought htey would Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
