    Default Headphones not working help!!!

    So i have been using my dr.dre beats studio for about a year now, and something isnt working now. When i connect the headphones with a 1/4 jack to my mixer it all works well, but when i take the jack off and try to use it with my phone or ipod the headphones dont work right. When ever im using it on anything els except the mixer it almost sounds like someone has just turned the low bass knob off. It sounds like there is no bass. I have switch the wire that connects to the headphones and still the same problem. Help!!

    Never had anything like that happen with my HD25's or 7506's. Not sure what to tell you. Is the tip broken or anything?

    You've tried swapping the cable from the headphones? I'm assuming it's interchangeable, I've never looked at Beats for longer then 2 seconds. You sure the jack in your ipod/phone is all good? Check with some other headphones see what the result is. Otherwise that's a really weird problem.

    Failing that use this as a reason to get some decent headphones.

    Yea i have tried my friends phone, nothing seems to work. Never liked the beats....it feels like it was made for ur neck more than ur ears. Only use them cause i got it for 15$. Do u have any cheap headphones u can recommend for me?

    This. Does it have a serial number and Dre's signature where you put the batteries in? Even if it does though that doesn't necessarily mean they're not fake.
