IIIIII like’em!!!!!!!!
that is to expensive for headphones.
I would never let anyone see me wear those.
Don’t you just love wasting money in this economy? They said change would come, I just didn’t realize they were talking about the change leaving my pocket and going into silly things like plastic paint.
lmao over 500 for headphones.. if you dont make music or own a private jet these arent.. this is like my friend she paid extra for a bold and doesnt know why its better than a curve.. she said she wanted to have at&ts most expensive and cool looking phn when she goes out..
someone who pays 500 dollars for some okay headphones probably isn’t really as “cool” as they think. just another status item for the masses…
$500 for a set of Beats? No thanks. I’d rather have a set of Sennheiser HD 650s or AKG K701s for less than Beats, given what I’ve read about Monster Beats.
I own the beats no complaints…well I take that back…. People are assuming I bough it because its all over the videos. Truth is I wanted them before that…i was just waiting for the price to drop,,, saved 50$. Fuck the recession if one can afford it why not.
Unreal, for that kind of money the Sennheiser HD 650s are what a real audiophile would get. Brendan got it right.
at this price they are still almost $200 cheaper than Ron Herman’s “LE” white studio beats by colorware.
Imagine what amazing headphones $500 will buy you, and in a color that doesnt look ridiculous.
The D.R.E. on the B.G.R.
very nice….
never thought i’d see em together but u ain’t seein’ me complainin’
bomb headphones by the way.
These are some amazing headphones that I’ve always wanted since I saw them at the mac store. too bad they cost so much :[
those beats are hot. the price point… not so hot.
If you can afford them, and in times like now, then why not? They’re certainly not bad looking in any way..
I don’t know much about headphones, but I’d still have to hear them first.
Well I think the headphones are too expensive but if I had that extra $500 well I would get me a pair as well! But as of now I will wait until the price drops and it will then I can grab me a pair or if BGR decides to give em away then that will be lovely lol!!!

I like them, but way toooo expensive
I respect every persons thoughts,But i have to say if you cannot pay the cost then they are not for you.
if you want what you like and are looking for great sound and fashion then here you go!
Buy what you like, and stop hating on the people that don’t think 500 dollars is to much to spend on what they want.
Sometime it is better to remain Quite and be thought to be a fool, then to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
Hating looks bad on who ever wears it!
Step your game up! life is to be enjoyed!!!
Go to your Apple store or your Best buy store and check them out for your self.
If u make money spend money, you guys sound like a bunch of politicians, be recession proof extend your capabilities, great fucking headphones
The drephones are like heaven on my ears. If you care about sound quality and detail, get the drephones. If you don’t, stick to your earbuds.
These sounded ok in the store…definately better than most Bestbuy or Target store brands, but seriously, way to much for headphones that arent even studio quality. Bass range is good but the mids and vocals suck in my opinion. Likely couldnt sell them on full range quality factors so they had to bring the Dr. Dre name into the picture to lure the rappers and hip hoppers in on the bass sound. True music fans know that the same price range gets you into studio quality full range Stennys or B&O. Think about it.
Don’t knock them till you’ve tried them!!!
I’m definitly traiding in me Bose on ear head phones for Beats. I heard them, tested them on
various music, rap, jazz, and rock. There’s nothing like it. If you love music, you will love these head phones. Dre said it best himself, “You will hear the music the way the artist intended.” I sell audio for a living, and the saying “You get what you pay for” is true in every aspect of consumer electronics. If you can’t afford to rock the Beats, fine, but don’t hate on the people that have the passion for music that want to enjoy it.
I can’t stand sitting in my room listening to music with my 10$ headphones. I love music too much. So i think money wise or not im getting these!
them beats is hot shorty!
