These headphones have a nice open soundstage for an earbud headphone and are relatively comfortable to wear. The sound does seem to "settle" and refine somewhat after some time of burning in. They sound quite natural and relaxed especially at lower volumes but turn up the volume and these bad boys come alive. I find the slightly flat sound at lower volume levels does pay off at higher listening volume. They are not harsh or fatiguing and very satisfying to listen too. 

I bought these after reading a good review of the new Solo2 phones, and while they (the wireless studios) aren't in the same Leage of sound quality as my LCD2 and Burson combo I'm surprised at how much I am enjoying listening to them. The wireless is so convenient and they are comfortable for extended use. I walked my dog for a while this afternoon and now after being home for an hour or so I still have them on. I have to be honest I'd be the first to return them If they sound bad (like I've read previous Beats models do, and honestly if a week ago someone told me I'd buy a pair of Beats headphones, I prob would have laughed) but I have to say I'm lovin the balanced bassy sound they have. The sound stage is good enough, there's detail and the treble is nice. I've owned dt990 and 770's, hd650 Ultrasone hfi2400 and akg q701 and k550, Sony 1R, klipsch x10 and all are great but these are staying on my head longer then I ever did with the other pairs. I know in part to the convince of wireless but also I have to say the Studio wireless are low on ear fatigue and just simply enjoyable....:rolleyes: did I just write all of that, do I really own a pair of Beats? Yes, and I'm happy I took the gamble on buying them because this is going to be a fun few years of wireless music.
