Stop addressing my statement as if race has anything to do with it. And I doubt that because like i said they're called beats for a reason.
That is not an argument. Beats are the greatest example of clever marketing, and are designed only to make money. They are associated with generic hip hop artists, and that is all it takes to brainwash every teenager/adolescent into thinking they're high-end shit.

Perhaps, can you compare beats bass to headphones you use regularly? Then maybe I'll be inclined to change my mind.

The joke was that high-end could mean high-quality, but it could also have meant the high-end of the audio spectrum.


Can you feel it mister Krabs?

Up yours. My Skullcandies are fucking amazing, I can control my bass (amplify it or just turn it off) and why do you need a volume control on your bloody headphones? You can do that with anything you'd be using them with.

There's a very good chance you could have gotten something with a significantly better quality at the same price-- they just won't be all pretty and sparkly. You might want to refer to this when they break.

See, you keep talking about just the bass. I'm using Sennheiser HD238, which ran me $140. A great pair of headphones for the price, balanced and clear. The bass is there, but doesn't overpower the crap out of the rest of the music.

People love trendy crap, same with cliches.

As soon as I saw "batteries", I knew it's not worthwhile. I'm sticking with the standard headphones thank you very much.

That's because thats the purpose of getting beats.

The purpose of getting beats is to show off that you have more money than sense. Anyone with a decent pair of headphones for 40-100 bucks can get just as much bass out of theirs than that shitty marketing ploy.

Fact.

LOL what an idiot.
Username seems appropriate.

Username is irrelevant. But your humorous defense of the defenseless shitty overpriced headphones are.
