Hi everyone. So I've had my Beats Studio headphones for about 2-3 years now (some Christmas ago) and have been going strong throughout this duration. Today, I decided to listen to some bass boosted youtube songs (in hd) that really tested my Beat's bass capabilities as they produced very clear, non-distorted bass that I would love to try with my truck's system one day. However, after listening for about 25 mins, the bass suddenly became distorted and somewhat staticy. I decided to replace the batteries but to no avail, low-end powerful bass was still distorted to a point that my audiophile senses could not bear. What has happened, have my Beats finally given out after 2 or so years of heavy bass rap songs? I have searched for this problem online but cannot find a similar situation as mine where I've had these for awhile now. Note that highs, mids and some lows are still perfect, however, any low-end bass (which I listen to alot) is distorted and clearly different from it's past performance, even with high-quality songs from both my iPhone and my laptop.
IN A NUTSHELL: Had my beats studio for 3 years, listen to some heavy HD bass boosted songs, bass gives out, becomes distorted, change batteries but to no avail, try other HD bass-heavy songs but same problem, highs, mids and some lows are still perfect but low-bass is distorted.
If these have truly hit the bucket in terms of bass quality, I have told my sister that they may become hers and I am willing to upgrade to a Denon, beyerdynamic, or Ultrasone pair of headphones somewhere in the $300 range. Thanks for the help guys.
