My God they are hideous. I didn't really like them that much already, but that sure sealed the deal.


Discuss similar moments when the aesthetics of a headphone you already weren't too fond of sort of "sealed the deal" (in other words, both sound and fashion are out so you pretty much just forget about it right then and there and simply laugh from then on whenever you hear about the cans in question).

I think they look fine. More gaudy than most, but fine. They are overpriced though, from my experience listening to them in Best Buy,

Aren't The Beats noise-canceling?

No. I'm not like that. I'll sometimes start talking about better options when someone tries to brag to me about their Skullcandy Hesh or something, though. But I hate bragging about audio. It makes me feel like a snob.

Monster Cables creed: JUST SUE THEM. Who cares what they do? Monster Cable makes me like Bose more and kinda wish they made the beats.
