Lol op you sound like a Bose man. Foolish people think anything that comes on a tv commercial is good. Go to v-moda.com they got some good stuff, and they also focus a lot on comfort and looks which seems like what your mainly interested in.

My brother bought a pair of beats. I tried them on. They are pretty but they sounded terrible. My Sony MDR-V150s sounded better! (A 20$ pair of sonys). I showed him my pair of Sony MDRZX700's and he bought a pair the next day.

Headphones I know that are better:
Sony MDRZX700 ($120...but can get for $80 on amazon at the moment)
Sennheiser HD203 ($50 but can get for cheaper on amazon at the moment)
Sony MDRZX100 ($20)
Sony MDRV150 ($20 but can get the newer model MDRZX100 for $20)

This is no bash fest. We all have thorough proof that Beats by Dre are terrible. If you disagree, then prove your point.

I love MKBHD. And yes, Beats by Dre.................. It's like putting $5,000 rims on a $500 car.
