I think your hearing is bad..... Your a brand name guy not quality..

These headphones have turned me into an aficionado of both hip hop music and Beats products. I have just purchased both the wireless version of these headphones as well as the Beats Pro headphones, taking advantage of the "Buy 2 Beats for 10% off" special ending Feb. 8, 2014. I have also purchased the Beats premium audio in my new FIAT Abarth (fabulous!) and am subscribed to the new Beats Music streaming service.      Let drop some Dynaudio in that and now you will know what it sound quality
 
 

Maybe I do have bad hearing... I didn't think so. I just find the (new, version 2, 2013) Beats Studio comparable to the Sennheiser HD 598 and Parrot Zik and NAD hp50 that I have, in terms of listening enjoyment... Each is different, but I could not rate one above another in quality.

However, if there are particular listening tests that you could suggest that I should try to better assess the Beats, please let me know... I'll even procure new source material if needed. If there are "yes / no" tests you can suggest (e.g., does the trumpet seem about 10' away and positioned between 1 and 2 o'clock, or does the second note on that bass have a slap not heard in the first) that would be even better.

I promise to try them on Beats vs the others I mentioned and report here.

Thanks, bonami2.

I just dont like this company... They Build there name with marketing and look.. While selling overpriced crap and now they have money to improve...  Im not an audiophile that look at detail.. Im the guy who look at the root of a company.. or try...
