And now for the gimmicks. One, there is a moot feature when you press a large disc built in flush to the headphones. Two, it comes with a special cord that allows you to answer a call on your cell phone with no interference from the music.

Again, these headphones are not to be believed and they are not being marketed so no one knows about them except Apple/Ipod geeks. ]]>Feb 5th 2010 11:17AMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/02/03/what-noise-canceling-headphones-should-i-get/http://www.switched.com/2010/02/03/what-noise-canceling-headphones-should-i-get/
If you listen to headphones, you will hear differences between certain brands. You need to hear YOUR music on the headphones to know whether or not you are getting the performance that you want.

I could sit here and tell you that Headphone A is the greatest sounding headphone in the history of history, and listening to it is the equivalent of a panda crapping a rainbow in your brain, but if after listening to it, YOU don't think so, then all of my hype means NOTHING.

Do yourself a favor, and before dropping a chunk of change - LISTEN.

And Richard - the Beats by Dre are made by Monster Cable, and they are being hawked pretty hard. I have heard them - impressive. But Monster Cable is probably the second worst company when it comes to marketing voodoo and overpriced stuff.]]>Feb 8th 2010 9:46AMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/02/03/what-noise-canceling-headphones-should-i-get/http://www.switched.com/2010/02/03/what-noise-canceling-headphones-should-i-get/Feb 13th 2010 2:48PMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/02/03/what-noise-canceling-headphones-should-i-get/http://www.switched.com/2010/02/03/what-noise-canceling-headphones-should-i-get/
I disagree with Jon's assessment of Monster as marketing voodoo, a common phrase, seems to not have relevance to their products: my power unit protected my HDTV and audio equipment from a surge a few weeks ago, saved me LOTS of dough, which is why I replaced it with a similar model.]]>Feb 19th 2010 1:38AM
