There is, however, one burning question that is still unanswered: how does the sound compare between the original and fake?

My fake Studios sound like the real Studios, crappy. But they look cool.

Ha!  Go figure that an "authentic" Beats sound would be easily and cheaply replicated. rolleyes.gif

 

I seen there are a bunch of fake studios floating around with "custom" color schemes.  Since the vast majority seem to buy them exclusively based on looks/trendiness and they sound alike, (and I'm sure durability wouldn't take much of a hit either) it seems that buying fakes is actually the way to go in this case.

Monster sources the drivers for their Beats series from Chinese oem manufacturers anyways, so in essence both fake and real Beats share the same basic drivers.

 

 

Woah did somebody just say something?

A friend got them for me in Beijing, they're the Superman style. One of these days I'm going to replace the 40mm drivers in them with something decent and re-tune them, then I'll send them to Tyll for measurements.

Haha, thanks for that info.
If the tiny driver sizes was not bad enough for these supposed 'bass monsters'.

     That's about it - they may look 'cool', but just be sure to have a pair of JH13 Pro IEM's inside the Beats to be actually listening to!

     Pretty well sums it up .......... oh, and remember - NEVER bring da Beats to Headphone meets (won't even pass the 'cool' test)

    There's that 'crap' word again - Beats can only be described with four-letter words.
