Viscra Maelstrom 3,719 Posted May 6, 2013 A saner price would be the Sennheiser HD600 or HD650. In a way though the 600 is a little better priced at $400 bucks but it has a flatter EQ then the 650. Though on that topic, if you want audiophile headphones for $300 then go for the V-Moda M-100. i'd want a middle-ground between a good listening experience and headphones good for production. not sure if such a thing actually exists, however, and if i need to get 2 different pairs of headphones for that.

Milk Wave 454 Posted May 6, 2013 i'd want a middle-ground between a good listening experience and headphones good for production. not sure if such a thing actually exists, however, and if i need to get 2 different pairs of headphones for that. Ive actually looked and it said that some of the lower end on ear Sennheiser's are good for producing music. I personally recommended the HD600 to a guy on the mlp chat but I have yet to hear back from him. There's also the Audio Technica Ath-M50's that are quite good in both aspects from what I hear. Though I don't like these since ive heard the highs are too powerful and the bass is lacking, most people love this for its price. I don't really know but I think the Beats by Dre Pro's actually fit in both categories too. That's just from my knowledge though, so I wouldn't really know for sure. 1 Link to comment

That's just from my knowledge though, so I wouldn't really know for sure. from what i've heard Beats is awful, not only price-wise, but quality-wise, as well. there's a musician i knew that owned a copy of Beats, albeit counterfeited ones, which he didn't give much high praise on its sound quality and questioned why anyone would use those to produce music with. i've heard a similar thing from another musician i really enjoy, too. my bets would be on the Monoprice, but unless i am in the US, they're expensive as shit...

I'm only talking about the Pros and none of the other headphones from the Beats line. I know for sure that the Studio's would downright fail for making music and the Mixr's are only made for DJing. But aside from the price to quality ratio, the only real way to try them to see if they're bad or not is to see for yourself. I did that with the SOL Republic Tracks HD, and by 2 weeks im in the process of selling them. Link to comment

BBBBUUUU I NEED TO SELL MY SOL REPUBLIC'S FAST D: But seriously, if you ever are in need of one to listen to music with then im selling mine for about $90-100. Link to comment

Don't get me wrong, because they sound a lot better then my beats do. But I could care less for the treble and vocals. Ive looked at reviews of these and 10/10 times ive seen so far on youtube they always love the outcome. For me, seeing a $20 pair of headphones is for people who don't know too well about music and just want to listen to it for fun. But to get in the feeling, you need great sounding headphones and the only real way to do that is to spend $100 at the least. Link to comment

And its able to power the 4 speakers n a subwoofer in my laptop with surprising sound quality. If you didn't know what it has, its an HP laptop with the beats audio sound card. And this, beats didn't fail on for once. Link to comment
