isn't your avatar an anime avatar?

 

[spideyman409]

Maybe Ka-Boom is a kid himself. =/

I mean...he also has a cartoon avatar....

 

[Gliss]

Maybe, we should get on on topic and talk about the headphones in question. I mean, i'd like to know more about those headphones then about peoples opinions about avatars, maturity, and anime. We should leave that to the other sections of the forum.

Thanks

Personally I don't think they look 'bad', but they don't quite strike me as looking good either.

But this is coming from the person who thinks the portapros look good. :\

respectfully, i dissagree.

i think the name gets used so 12 year can go "ooh im a big boy its not a cartoon its "anime" and thats for grown ups" a cartoons a cartoon.

not that i have anything against it, i used to really like some of it its just the name that annoys me.

come on guys, we're not here to talk about the good/ugly looking cable, you all off the topic. I tried this in J&R don't like them, too much focus on the low-end I meant the bass. and all they playing is rock and Rap music as sampling. I will put the word as "Fancy but not for HIFI". BTW I hate people saying these are used by famous stars. those are all gimmicks. Just about to wondering If they spend that much on the advertising, how much they really spend on the actual IEM.

 

[shigzeo]

trust me, monster spend a lot of time making the iem - though i have not heard the beats, they did the exhaustive research as any other hi-end company before bringing out the turbine and they hit it very well.

the preconception that rap and hip hop need nothing really to perform well other than bass is juvenile. i think this board is full of enough hip hop lovers to actually be able to comment. hifi is what the manufacturer makes. if it is focus on bass and treble, it is hifi, if it is focused on mids, it is hifi; if it is focused on treble it is still hifi. but each niche has its own market.

if you don't like the focus of the beats, it does not mean it is not hifi, it means that it does not fit your idea of good sound. further, all hi end companies market. monster use stars sometimes and other companies, use driver number and spec sheets to wow you.

it is no different. in the end, some people will buy based on endorsements and others will buy based on paper-spec. both are marketing schemes and both mean nothing until you actually hear them.

i may not like the beats (as i have not heard them) i am not able to comment on their sound but monster are unnecessarily beaten down here because of their name and... endorsements?

cartoons are cartoons
cars are cars

It probably competes with Super Fi EB.

Those fire engine red ribbon cables look hideous !

 

[Young Spade]

I am not picking these up; maybe if I wanted something that would only be used for rap and hip hop, then MAYBE I might consider them.
