Quote: do i just have a dud or something then?  Everyone recommended these as my first real headphone but I dont see why they hyped it up so much

Just got mine in the mail today and im a little dissapointed.  The sound seems a little clouded/muddy and not as clear as i thought it would be.  Would burning them in make a difference?

Quote: the last link you posted.  How do you think they compare to the beats by dre solo cables?  Are they better than the dre beats(i currently have these)?  Im getting my m50s modded so i can use a shorter cable but im not sure if my dre beats cable would affect sound quality.

Quote: cable with two 3.5 plugs

Links are appreciate, thanks!

Quote: what im slightly confused about is the modded part of the m50s.  From what you see on that site, is the part that plugs into the headphones a 3.5mm slot?  Im confused because it says something about a twist to lock and im not sure what that means.  Sorry for these extremely noobie...

http://www.soundprofessionals.com/cgi-bin/gold/item/ATH-M50-R-SPECIAL   the beats by dre cables are the standard 3.5 mm jack.  Also, would using these cables affect the sound quality compared to the original coiled cable?    thanks.
