I have a pair of studios , and while I don't think there worth there 250+ price tag, they are no where near as bad as people say they are. I luckily got mine for like half price, and for listening to music with a lot of bass, rap and hip hop etc, I think there brilliant ! Like people have said if they was that bad they wouldn't have sold as many as they have. The make of the headphones is actually monster , which I've always thought were a decent brand anyway :) .... And why would all the most popular dj's use those mixr headphones if they were as bad as eVeryone says ? Must be paid or something ?

Why do people buy iphones or any apple product....when you can get superior products for half the cost.

Its all down to marketing

I saw the thread title and wondered if I would see everyone ripping into Beats once I started reading the thread itself. I'm so happy that everyone here knows how overpriced and crap they are too!

OCUK should stock Grado headphones. I would argue that they look way better than Beats anyway. A shame I can't use my SR80i at work, but open back is part of what makes them sound so good.

Hipster :O

OCUK should stock a lot of things but grado isn't high on the list. WE are trying to source suppliers for Audio headphones but the industry is pretty niche and closed If we were on mainland Europe we could probably work around it.

Corsair are a marketing machine same as Razer they have some of our best selling products regardless of people who spend a but more time doing research's opinions.

We have a forum for Enthusiasts and a Shop for everyone. You don't have to like it nor do you have to buy it but people do and will :)

Oh god corsair...I bought a k70 rgb..and nothing but problems with that KB..god was I sucked into that marketing genius:(
 
I have no idea but if anyone read the article you'd realise they had no idea either "experts suggest" does not in my world = This is fact.

We can spaeculate the real world value of everything against manufacturing costs of products. I'm not saying they aren't cheap to make they probably are but so is everything else. Also it didn't specify which model cost $14 to make.

It's like me telling you that Sennheisers headphones cost $14 to make. Becuase it's sennheiser not Beats you'll ask which model and be rational but because it's beats the brand everyone wants to hate you accept it and add it to your list of reasons to hate.

They can't be that bad :)


Beats Solo2 ($199)
WoF_photo_Senn_HD251IILikely to be the world's most popular headphone for a while to come, the Beats Solo2 is worthy of the position. Solid build, good looks, color choices available, and a warm and punchy sound the general public will love. Audiophiles will find it a bit thick in the mid-bass to low-mids, and will notice a rolled-off top octave in the treble. But they'll also find the bass quite tight and well defined, and likewise a treble that's articulate and clear. While the Solo2 is excellent for the urban and pop music crowd, those interested in a clearer sound might prefer the Sennheiser Momentum On-Ear or V-Moda XS. Bottom line: the Solo2 performs right at best-in-class for $200 on-ear sealed cans.
Isolation, comfort, and efficiency are all good with Solo2, making it an excellent choice as a portable headphone. The cable uses a 3-button remote and a zippered soft side case is included.

And that's fine not everything on our site is liked by our forum. Razer HID's are still a top seller Same for Corsair gaming.

We have to cater for all of them and that is that :)

Was this some other companies cast off's you got a good deal on and thought you might be able to turn a profit on?

Will you be selling Beyerdynamics or Shure audio equipment in the future?

We have tried with beyerdynamics but they will only sell us the MMX 300 gaming headphones.

Shure Is also an option over the summer Myself and Rich will continue to expand our offerings. IT's not as easy as just list them though most of these places trace serial numbers and will cut distributors off for supplying stuff they shouldn't to people they shouldn't. Rainforest are too big and can afford to circumvent anything until the company gives in and deals with them.

Beats were offered to us at a price which allows us to make money and compete with the rainforest. We'd be stupid not to take up the opportunity as it will drive new traffic to our site too.
