beats is a gimmick, we know it. just like Monster cables were a gimmick. yeah yeah yeah, lifetime warranty etc, but i've owned 4 monster cable guitar 1/4inch jack cables before, and within years, they all crap out, get staticy and the ends need to be resoldered. i'd resolder it myself because **** wasting time sending away and waiting weeks to get a replacment in. therefore, i've never bought another guitar cable from monster again. i DO however use a 6 inch cable to connect my head to my cabinet by monster..and i only bought it because i needed something then and there when i got my bass head back in '06. it was $25. ripoff? yes. however, since those cables don't see much abuse and are pretty much just always idle sitting there plugged in, there's no wear/tear on them, even after bringing them gigging. guitar cables, however, are a different story. so i bought dimarzio cables (which ended up crapping out, too, but i liked them better than monster, at half the price..) and now i'm using some cheap 25 foot cable i got 2 years ago from musicians friend for the stupid deal of the day for 5 bucks or something, and it still works FINE. no loose tips, no static, no signal degredation for being that long of a cable.

point is, monster is and always will be overpriced ****. HOWEVER, i do love the beats EQ. my rezound music sounds great compared to teh nexus, and i can't even get an EQ to sound like the beats one. i do enjoy that eq.

i just hate technology in general. it all just craps out for no reason. my $100 TC electronic polytune pedal board tuner just DIED out of nowhere, and i had to go and spend $60 to get a new Korg replacement. TC wanted $60 just to fix it (i was out of warranty) so i told the guy to **** himself, and that i'll go give Korg that $60 for a brand new tuner.

The beats EQ is an S curve. Boosts treble and bass, search for the graph.

Yeah the consumer electronics industry has figured out that if you build **** products, youll get twice the sales and prob like 10 times the revenue from over charging.

/I think beats also uses some compression.

They are. I'm a sound technician though, so it's what I do every day.

That doesn't mean anything. You would be surprised how many instrument players are clueless when it comes to audio reproduction. I have had so many people give me "advice" about how I was running something and what they said didn't make any sense.

But jayochs seems to know what he is talking about.

Beats headphones are a gimmick. Just like monster cables. Anything monster makes is a gimmick. Just because it is more expensive and looks cooler doesn't mean it works. I usually buy cables with neutrik connectors. They are the best.

Also, behringer is a great brand contrary to popular belief. It used to suck, bit the quality now is great. Cheap stuff that works. Good enough for me.
[HTC Rezound] 1heffer:
Just wait till jayochs gets his monter built guitar, with beats by dre!
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
psh your jelly. and i should since im soon to be a Recognized Contributor
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
I use the beats headphones just because they have huge drivers and are built well. I use poweramp so I have the eq set to bring out the main frequency ranges in my music, and have the other things such as the tone and stereo cross set to perfection.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
he's right. there's tons of 'musicians' out there who don't know **** (let alone can't even play more than 3 power chords....yet they think they're good....sigh) but yeah. behringer is meh. they were ****, and they're still cheap, made in china stuff. i had one thing behringer, and it wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special. i steer clear of them still, because even though the price is appealing, it just isn't as high end. but it's great for a youngin such as yourself with a limited budget. if it gets you through the night and you're good enough to make it sound good, then who gives a **** what the brand is, ya know?

don't tempt me to go run and put those stickers for their brands all over one of my ****ty old basses.... :p lol

yeah i know, but again, i'm lazy. rather than manually doing it, i like hitting a switch to turn it on lol. also, i read somewhere it was an active eq that changed as per freq levels in songs. dunno if that's true or not, but it would make it a bit more sophisticated of an EQ than just setting something in DSP manager.
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:

Now, I ran across my boy Yoenis Cespedes crushing that ball with every ounce of testosterone he has in to the stands and was like "yuuuup, that's my new one".
