Are the Dre headphones AMAZING?

I ask with no real point of reference. As, I'm not an 'audiophile' (never use that word but have seen it used and it's kind of funny) and never used to really care about beats at all. As in, I didn't think much about them. Always been focused on lyrics and flow and was always more important to me.

But even that I guess would be enhanced with better sound quality. I've only ever listened to music through shitty PC speakers though. I do have these old studio headphones but they obviously won't compare to Dre's.

I'm more intrigued by these than others as I watched some interviews with Jimmy and Dre and it's clear that a lot of serious conscious effort has gone into these, with the real collaboration of a beat-making legend. And, he's also obsessive, so I wanna know how good they are.

But, would you say they were absolutely worth every penny and they take it to another level? am just curious. Totally-way-fucking-broke for now and a long while but, in the future I'd possibly buy them just to hear classic material with them. And in particular, Relapse.

I know you weren't asking me but here's my 2 cents...

The Beats have good bass response, and a pretty good overall sound, but if you're going to spend the money, I recommend going with Bose headphones.

The Bose Quietcomfort15 will run you about the same cash, and are actually used by 'audiophiles'. Bose is very respected when it comes to that type of thing, whereas Beats (made by Monster) is seeing as 'paying for a brand'. This isn't to say the Beats aren't decent headphones, but you can get better in that price range.

I'd also check out Sennheiser and Shure.

Personally, they are absolutely worth every single penny.

Here's the thing, you'll find a lot of people who shit on the headphones I guess because they hate things that are popular, or because they can't afford to buy them. Just my opinion.

As far as music quality, I adore the bass because it enhances a lot the experience of listening to a hip-hop track. If you want to hear Relapse in particular, make no mistake, these cans deliver. Hearing Stay Wide Awake at max volume will give you goosebumps.

Audio is good and all, however, my favorite thing about the headphones has to be the quality of the product. Absolutely every fucking headphone that I've ever had either the cord gets ripped, or one of the sides stops working, which infuriates me. I've had the beats since January and it has never given me any trouble. It even comes with an extra cord just in case something happens to the main one. I love it.

Another of the pros is the battery life. I was concerned that this thing was going to eat batteries and cost me a lot of money, but since January, I've changed batteries probably 5 times. I bought a $20 rechargeable batteries charger, and it works like a charm. And I bump most of the time around 5 hours of music per day, so I give the beats a good workout.

I'd wholeheartedly recommend the Studio to anyone. And on top of that, they look cool as fuck and doesn't make you look like a doofus like a lot of the audiotechnica, sennheiser or sony cans.

can you take a pic of the shirts? i wanna see if i should get those are the one eminembase sells


I don't have a memory card for my phone...I just got it not too long ago and haven't gotten around to getting one, sorry. I got the BME shirt that Em was wearing, and then I got an Eminem shirt, not necessarily BME. I think he made those shirts that he's selling.

iight it's all good bro but by any chance is the bme shirt that he was wearing a slim fit tee?

From what I've heard from all the audiophiles I know, Beats are way over priced for the quality you're getting.

Studio is an amazing headphone .. but if you won't buy the Studio don't buy anything, Solo's, Earphones and Beats Pro blows.


Yep but when you look in the package, there's a lot of things. Every fucking thing you need, and that's a big plus. The quality is great, maybe it's because I only listen to hiphop and that it was mainly made for that.
And yeah the price is also mainly due to the design, which is beautiful.

I don't know, but the one I bought was slim fit.

Came back to annihilate, the game's in dire straights, as I await
Word on Satan, as I drop, fall to my knees before this Quija board and I pray
Now I lay me down to sleep
I do this shit in my sleep, I’m sleepin' now, imagine if I awake

"This dude doing this interview wants me to spin a few,
Lyrics while I tie my tennis shoes in the nude
A romantic interlude in a livin’ room,
In an inner tube with a dude with a bit of lube
Fuck that I’m sniffin’ glue, sippin' gin & juice,
And a little bit of paint thinner with my dinner too,
You better pay me for my bars like your rent is due,
Now hurry up and finish dude before I finish you."
