As a overseas audiofan I cant imagine why this Beats brand was mentioned as a reference or a point. :scratch:

Yes, like, just about anything else is better.  For example, the Sony MDR 7506 is a much more balanced headphone, not expensive, and has been a reference for a long time.

I for one will not be looking to Forbes' for advice to guide my headphone purchases. But then I just got HD650s a few months ago so I'm not in "shopping" mode. Maybe later next year I'll be looking to add a different "flavor" to the collection. Beats will not be on the list btw.

I certainly did not expect anyone on AC to do so.  8)


I just posted it as light and quick reading material from a "the masses" perspective.

Didn't mean to be dismissive. It was a worthwhile read.
