  • The Beats by Dr. Dre Studio headphones are by no means a bad product; these are truly unique in appearance and quite good in the musical genres these were created for, but these are far from a good product when you look at the overall value.Beats by Dr. D...

  • Abstract:  When the news broke that Monster cables are working together with Dr. Dre to make a line of headphones, most of the response I’ve heard were not positive. Sure, having Monster Cable and Dr. Dre’s name on the product will guarantee its success with the ...

  • These headphones are compatible with most products out there, so you can use them with your PC, TV, computer, iPod, and more. They are very easy to use and they come with a nice carrying case to keep them protected when not in use.They might be a littl...

  • The Monster Beats by Dr. Dre Studio headphones offer a stylish and comfortable design as well as an exceptionally crisp and balanced audio response with a tight low-end and warm mids. Included are a nice carrying case and a music-phone-compatible cable
  • The Monster Beats by Dr. Dre Studio headphones cannot be used without batteries, they're expensive, and the glossy black design is very smudge-prone
  • The Beats by Dr. Dre Studio headphones deliver the trifecta of sleek, comfortable design, useful features, and top-notch sound quality. If you can afford them, they're a worthy investment toward an improved listening experience.

  • Abstract:  Monster Cable Beats by Dr. Dre studio headphones: Low-level resolution was also greater with the Phiatons. Valet's "Rainbow" opens with a whispered vocal from Honey Owens that the Phiatons zoomed in on and embraced; in fact, Owens' voice t...

  • Abstract:  Now When Monster first announced the Beats by Dre line of headphones, most of the world said “What? Why is Monster making headphones?” And it might have been a valid question at the time, as many consumers tend to view Monster as an “overpriced” cable...

  • Fantastic, balanced sound. Bass thumps but isn’t muddy, Lot’s of extras are included, Unmistakable style, The mute button is an awesome innovation,
  • Price, Not the most comfortable or portable headphones, Some songs (mainly hihats and other brass percussion components) sound harsh, Answer button on included cable is very wonky at first, though you get used to it.
  • It is unquestionable that the Studio Beats by Dre have an absolutely phenomenal quality of sound. Not only that, but they also LOOK phenomenal. These over-the-ear headphones look, sound, and are expensive. So the question has never bee...

  • The Monster Beats by Dre headphones are surprisingly comfortable and lightweight, making long periods of use, ahem, wear rather pedestrian and nonfatiguing, The Beats by Dre headphones are fairly attractivelooking, I must admit; they are clearly designed to speak to a young, hip audience and, to that extent, they succeed. While my father would probably never buy or wear a pair, my two younger
  • I did my evaluation of the Beat by Dre headphones at a Monster Cablesponsored event, so if they were going to sound their best, I have to imagine it was going to be in Monster's own house. This said, the Beats are atrocious. Because of their isolation, you have no escape from the icepicktotheear drum effect the Beats are so good at reproducing, The high frequencies are so glaring and harsh at
  • To sum the experience of listening to the Beats by Dr. Dre headphones from Monster Cable: they're a bit like getting punched directly in the ear canal by a very attractive woman bejeweled in Cartier. The Beats by Dre headphones are ungodly expensive an...

  • Outstanding audio on a range of applications, Effective noise cancellation, Eminently comfortable, Sexy esthetics (these are the "turnons" after all)
  • No sound at all without batteries, or when noise cancellation switched off, Monster warns against headband damage if handled roughly, Folds smaller but not flat
  • I should point out that as I wore the Beats By Dre for a few weeks during this review, multiple strangers asked me longingly where I acquired them. Initially in short supply, word is apparently out on them already, and they have become a bona fide obj...

  • Pretty good sound across the board; Supports high-resolution audio; Can be wired or wireless; “Fashionable”; Portable, thanks to the ability to fold up;
  • Controls are cumbersome; No NFC; Expensive; Headphones have to be powered to work, even when wired; Weak active noise cancellation; No cut-off switch when you collapse the headphones, staying on the entire time;
  • Dr. Dre's option to making your ears sing the praises of music without wires does result in a pair of cans with decent sound, but it's lacking in usability and common sense as far as design and engineering go.Headphones shouldn't need power to work. That'...
