As long as there are no batteries like the normal Beats, they might be worth looking into. The head band looks rather uncomfortable. I’d have to try them on though.
It’s beats with a swivel cup… Normal beats are crap, I don’t see why these should be any different, considering all “famous names” attached, I think these will be directed at consumers too.
I find it ironic that these are marketed towards DJs and David Guetta is their celebrity endorsement,because Guetta has been caught with pre-recorded sets on more than one occasion. So their celebrity “DJ” does less Dj’ing than their target audience.
Guetta from the article, "The sound is better than anything I’ve experienced before because it doesn’t distort no matter what volume I am playing music at.” Since when is lack of distortion at high volumes a mark of sound quality? I’d rather know how they sound when they’re not distorting than “you can push these cans til your ears bleed!” Unless I’m pushing an amp into the headphones, I sure as hell hope they wouldn’t distort at a 250 pound price tag. More buzzword advertising from Beats… Unsurprising.
If they sound anything like the regular beats then they will probably be garbage. I tried on a pair of beats at a local store and listened to a tune, my god they sound horrendous. Sounds like they just grabbed the low EQ and cranked it to max, sounds terrible. Maybe I’m just spoiled with my HD-25s, but they sound no better than regular crap you can get for 40$.
Yeah, anything with a “beats” tag you should stay away from. They color the sound ALOT toward the low frequencies like another poster above said and i just cant understand how even a few people like to use them. I might consider buying them if they were sold for 40bucks but only to smash them to the ground.
Where i work we have came up with another name for “beats” audio and thats “bitch” audio.
