Rock out with these Beats by Dr. Dre Beats Studio 900-00188-01 headphones that feature adaptive noise canceling to filter out ambient sound. The leatherette ear cushions and flexible design ensure a comfortable fit.

Good Headphones, Bad Pricing

Pros:
- Build Quality is great, 300x better than the original Studios.
- Sound is good; warm and bass heavy sound
- Very fashionable looking set
- Color (Titanium) and matte finish look very premium, however the glossy editions look more like toys to me.
- Comes with in-line microphone for mobile use.
- Noise cancelling blocks out ambient noise as intended.

Cons
- They're not comfortable for long term use. The first hour is great, then the experience quickly diminishes. I'll often have to take breaks due to the heat on my ears and the tightness of the band. I get a bit of stress on my ears and top of my head where the band sits.
- Sound is not accurate. It has a decent sound to non-audiophiles, but the bass is very muddled and lacks range. Bass heads and audiophiles will be disappointed with the reproduction in this set.
- Noise cancelling is active, therefore creating a buzz/hiss sound ALWAYS and cannot be deactivated. This is annoying when listening videos with dialog, say in a movie without music in a scene and just dialog. Same case with songs in low moments.
- Cannot listen without battery charged. It's a wired set and, as far as I know, it doesn't have an internal amp.
- The price. This isn't an issue with being able to afford the headphones. I clearly can. These headphones just aren't worth the money unless your only concern is to be trendy and have a good looking pair of headphones. There is nothing wrong with that, however if your focus is listening to music then go with a different brand. Beats look great and I admit I love the way they look, but with giant cans on your head, you might as well go for a better audio experience.

I am trading these for ATH M50x Audio Technicas. I recommend going with the Beats Studio 2.0 if you're a fan of the look and aren't budget conscious. Spending $300 on a different brand will likely result in better sound, comfort and ultimately looks if compared to the glossy Studios.

Use this Klipsch ProMedia 3-piece speaker system to enjoy brilliant sound when playing games, listening to music or watching videos on your computer.

I expected these speakers to be amazing with the name Klipsch on it... but I had no idea I was gonna be head over heals in love with the sound..
DEFINATELY BUY THESE IF YOU NEED A 2.1 COMPUTER SETUP.
Trust me, you wont use your 30 day return policy!
What's great about it: Crystal clear highs, good detail, great bass, smaller price than bose!
What's not so great: Yeah a few cables but who cares!
I would recommend this to a friend!
