Oh... Sheeew... I thought you were talking about the world of wearing rapper endorsed products so that people think you are cool....

That was a close one... thought you had lost it...

oh dear lol that would be like being a rebel in a seemingly 'rebel' group 

 (rebel group against the mainstream idea of rapper endorsed headphones that is)

Haha! Nope,still sane 

 Couldn't care less about who endorses products. These would still look good if not better without the signature "b"

I think you're being way too flippant. And the other dude that said they are the same quality as the others too... Totally off the mark. These sound way better than the beats studios and the others. Also, understand that headphones are really personal. So be careful when you just flippantly rip on a new product.
 
And those reading should also avoid putting too much into what others say about headphones. I'm snobbish about headphones. I can't stand Grados, contrary to what the general consensus, I find them harsh, and naturally settled on Beyer Dynamic DT 770 pros. It's just a personal preference.
 
I just demoed some Beats Executives with a variety of music, and found them really pleasurable, very musical. Not overwhelming in the bass. They are warm... I don't know how they'd stand up to a full day of listening or mixing, but there you have it. 

Does that include the mixr?

Garbage. Monster just can't seem to grasp that bass isn't good after a certain extent.
They also need batteries for the "active noise cancelation" which in my opinion is worse on these cans than the Studios. In my point of view, they are just another noise canceling can that didn't get it right.
Avoid the Executives...

 
I thought Beats and Monster has been separated?

I think they have, into two equally disappointing brands.

Maybe they have something magical I have yet to hear!

Not exactly. See:

As of today, I believe Monster owns even more of Beats since HTC sold back a bunch of their shares after this video was made.

Monster DNA

Monster DNA 

Yup...a legit monster headphone for sure.

 

[coldmack]

Minus the subjective looks I am told the Diamond Tears are suppose to sound really good(even vs the DNA). 

 

[Mheat122134]

These sound worse than the Studios... Beats just get worse and worse.

What's with all these conflicting reports

Monster didn't manufacture these BTW. Monster and beats split last year and nows beats is a standalone country

The bottom right corner of the box still says Noel Lee though... Implying that Monster DID in fact manufacture these.
 
Ok, I got a chance to study these too, and besides the metal construction, these really aren't a big improvement over the Studios.
Noise cancelling is still not good... horrible when you compare them to the Bose Quietcomfort 15s.
Bass is still big as usual, and sounds "mushy" still
Mids are slightly more clear than the Studios
Treble still sounds blended together, just like the Studios
 
But they do look a lot more sophisticated than the Studios with that slimmer, metal design.
 
 
I still wouldn't recommend them though.

Not true. See above:

Actually when HTC sold their shares back monster didn't buy them, beats audio actually bought their own company back from HTC. A simple Google search will show you that.
