Hey everyone, im looking to purchase a good set of earphones and just want some information as to which earphones are better in overall performance? The Sennheiser IE6 or Dr Dre Beats "Tour"


Thanks in advance

i'm inclined to think the IE6 would be a better bet for u

IE6 100%.

I doubt that you're going to find anyone suggesting the Dr. Dre's, so don't bother checking this thread anymore.

the ie6's would be the safer bet. Dre's are supposed to be a bit uncomfortable & Monster is much newer in the earphone market vs Sennheiser. On a side-note, I doubt "Dr. Dre" knows much about audio engineering, so I'd be skeptical about the accuracy of something w/ his name on it. Plus, they just look tacky imho.

monster might be a better contender against ie6

The Tours supposedly have more bass and are less balanced that the Turbines.

He might be a rapper but he has good production skills, so I wouldn't be so quick to say that he doesn't know that. Out of curiousity, have you given his tracks or productions a listen?
