    We should be thankful for Beats.

    I think that the massive marketing operation behind, and resulting mainstream popularization of Beats headphones does the audiophile community a great service, although on the surface it is a major annoyance. This is because they brought to the general population's mind the need for better...

    Consumer Reports weighs in on Beats

    I am not a fan of Beats by Dre because of the hype factor. I always think the person wearing them is more concerned with image than quality sound. I hadn't even actually heard them until about a month ago when I asked a work acquaintance to give his a listen. They weren't too bad. Definitely not...

    To start off this thread, I would like to post some rules: No hater comments or long, pointless rants. I'll flag you if you do. Just write a complaint about what you hate about Beats headphones. Don't complain about overpricing because everyone already knows about it. It's pointless, and...

    Monster Beats Pro - A Full Review

    Monster Beats Pro by Dr Dre     Introduction     The Beats headphones are definitely one of the most polarizing products ever made. It gets a lot of love but just as much hate. Head-Fi is a prime example of this. On one hand, people will point out that everyone they know plus...

    Beats Solo HD?

    Now I know these are one of the most overrated headphones out there but I saw a Black Friday Ad at Best Buy pricing them at a mere $80 so I thought these cans might be decent at that price range. I was wondering how well do they stack up compared to other headphones in the same price range...

    Blackweb (aka Wal-mart) headphone line

    Anyone heard of Blackweb headphones?  This seems to be a made-for-Walmart line, and for all I know they are sold only in Canada at the moment.  They have over-ear and on-ear models that are clearly meant to look like cheap Beats, a flat-folding model and some IEMs as well.   Searching...

    Kaepernick fined $10 000 for wearing Dr Dre Beats!

    Finally, I thought that corporate America had gotten it right and had recognized the damage being done to young audiophile ears and the slow and gradual erosion of music fidelity and appreciation, when the NFL fined Colin Kaepernick $10 000 for wearing Dr Dre Beats.  But alas, my hope was...

    Beats Solo 2: Is the Head-Fi community willing to give these a fair chance?

    Unlike past Beats releases these have a pretty good build and a good sound for a portable pair of headphones. (Subjective) Many comments on YouTube and other places on-line are quick to dismiss them based on the brand name. So many negative comments were even made when reviewers had...

    Should I buy Geek Squads Proection Plan for my Beats headphones?

    The hate on beats, why?

    I've been lurking around for a few days now in this forum. One thing that everyone keeps saying is that beats sucks, but no one really explain why other than it's expensive. I've just tried one pair out and I thought they sounded good to my ears, now keep in mind that I've really not tried any...
