I'm sorry but I would say $80-100 USD, (I rate looks quite high, not as high as sound quality though)

I think your inventory bears out that statement. :drool:
 
Normally I would say "Welcome to Head-Fi, and sorry for your wallet," but it looks like your wallet is already either very fat or very, very sorry.

I'm with glasslike. I'd price them around $80 since they're noise cancelling, and I don't think the sound is too terrible.  Then again, I've only listened to them at Best Buy where you can only demo them with low quality files.

Do you really think they are using low quality files on the displays?  If anything they are using highly eq'd files that over exaggerate their sound quality.  What you are hearing on those displays is how terrible they actually are.  They sound like crap.  The studio's are halfway decent and I would probably price them at around 50-60, but but he solo's sounded horrendous.  I could hear no highs at all, and the mids were on some other planet they were so distant.  
 

 nobody knows what music format or files they use on the displays, but they sure as hell have been adultered in some way

If i were to put a realistic price on them, it would be around $80. 

 

[Uncle Chuck]

Solo's - $30
 
Studio's - $80

There is one more problem about the studios besides the bad SQ, which is they are active noise cancelling cans. Try name one active can on the market that could live up to its price in terms of SQ, and I don't think there is any. 
I consider that monster making the studio a active can is simply trying to cover up the bad SQ and justify its stupid price tag.

 
But talking about the solos, I agree with most the ppl here that they only worth a price tag of $30-$50

 

[Dabears2240]

Solos- $60
Studios- $120
 
 
I think people exaggerate how bad they are here, plus they look nice.

I don't mean any disrespect, both to the OP and to the forum goers, but as a relatively new Head-Fi'er I'm curious: why is it that there are so many Beats threads recently? Has it always been this way, or did something happen?
 
And I agree. I'd definitely buy the knives for free Beats, not the other way around.

uhh... ya something happened...
 
a big fat guy dressed in red came down everyone's chimney a few weeks ago and left everyone an inferior set of headphones!!!

Thanks, wallets not fat (my back pockets been ripped out). Also I think all my headphones are pretty, I don't think I would be able to buy an ulgy pair of headphones.
