I don't want to throw up when I see them on my desk. I'm stereotypical-homosexual-like about interior design.

if you're that obsessed with looks just get the Edition 8s. I think they're the best looking headphone :P

I think these look pretty good as well.
I've tried them on and they're pretty comfy. More of a portable thing though.

I'm really looking for a blend of sound quality, looks and comfort. SQ is top priority, though. For instance, I intend to one day have HD800s, which I think look crap.

That's just insulting!
Edited by Cymbal Monkey - 8/26/10 at 9:48pmpost #37 of 418/26/10 at 9:49pmToo bad there are no reviews for the Beats pro yet. ut they do retail for $400 and for $265 they are not bad.

If you are a beats h8er i would go with these. They sound so much better than the beats studio it's not even funny. + the b&w's have tight bass and crisp highs.- Cymbal Monkey

True but they're Dre, which means nothing but bass.
post #40 of 418/26/10 at 10:03pmDn't worry i used to h8 the beats by dre buds but the beats pro look so tempting and they look like they are made out of better material so I thought wth and got them (mostly because they are the cheapest legit ones on the planet). But if I were you I would get the B&W's they both look and sound fantastic. But you have to realize I am in high school and they are good for ppl like me for fashion.
