Yes. They have pretty good sound quality and are comparable to the Beats Solos, but some people say the bass on these is not as good as the Beats but its still pretty good. I have only had them for a few weeks but they do not feel cheap and seem pretty durable.Also, the pouch they come with will protect them somewhat. Hope this helps.

They sound just as good as beats. I did a direct comparison myself. Plus they are really high quality. They will last a long time. No reservations, just but them!!

The sound quality is very good. Not up there with sanheisser or actual audiophile headphones but for the price, it is worth it. It looks like it will last the year. I primarily use it at work for my computer but have used it with my phone and it sounded great.

Nope...but they produce excellent, rich sound. Better than beats by Dre to me. These don't have such overpowering bass.

These cables are definitely not think. If you take care of them they will last pretty long i believe.I do not think that you can get better sounding in ear headphones for that price, I am still blown away by their performance.

Well obviously this can be a subjective question. But to me, yes, there's plenty of bass. Compared to something like beats, maybe not as much but I'd say the overall sound is really good and it gets quite loud. Also considering the price compared to the beats I would choose these every time.

Yes, they have a good bass but they will not last long. Mine lasted less than two months.

It's a crap-shoot, really. I had jbuds that only lasted for four months, and then these Sennheisers lasted for about a year. The Sennheisers sound a bit better in my opinion. I've also had another pair of jbuds for a bit that are currently still working.

I've had mine since last summer and they're still going strong. I use them about 10 hours a week and they show no signs of wear and tear. The audio quality isn't as good as the 2013 Beats Mixr or studio headphones but the Sol's are physically strong, maybe even stronger than the Beats.

The sound is above normal headphones, better than beats, very crisp clean sound. Once you put them one you won't take them off. The reason I even took the time to write a response is enough said haha, well worth it. In sound there is no headphones that can match it. Period.

I assume I'm getting this question because I reviewed Beats. My review was definitely not good. They were expensive, broken within less than 10 days after purchase, the break occurred in a place that couldn't really be fixed and in my opinion was due to bad design and cheap construction. So I wouldn't recommend you buy any Beats products. I've bought 2 other brands since, which were less costly, much better made and sounded better too, so Beats pretty much can't really win me back unless something drastic was to happen.

These were a gift to my son. He says they are good, durable and the sound is good. However, the bass isn't too good. He really likes them and he would recommend people buying them for the price. Hope this helps.

I haven't used Beats, but I play drums with these for 2 - 3 hours and I hardly know they're there. I don't expect the sound pattern would be the same, however as Sennheisers go for tonal balance and don't exaggerate bass.

You have to take a close look at them and feel if they're flimsy. Then the true test is listening. If any of those things are bad, send them back! Try nomoretack.com. They're from Beats and sell for 50-60 bucks.

There just better they won the 2009 mix technology of the year award & have a flat frequency response. If your an audiophile you should know beats are a P.O.S they attenuate the bass frequencies and get ride of the mids and highs and leak a ton. Where as these don't leak heavily like beats cause the Audio Technicas are closed backed headphones so there are good to record on the mic. Also they don't have noise reduction which always reduces the quality of the audio. I also find the audio technicas pretty comfy I can wear them for hours on end without my ears starting to hurt. Furthermore, I feel the beats are more comfortable because of the pads. Also the poor construction of the plastic make them feel flimsy they leak and people can hear what your listening to. But if your an average consumer and not an Audio Engineer, Singer, or Audiophile & more conceded with how beats look buy the beats.

Never buy Beats. They're overpriced, overhyped branded normal headphones with unequal levels. get the ATH-M50 model. any of them. just never buy beats anything.

It is very good actually. They did break (User error not a defect, I have a chewing on things problem) but while I did have them they were easily the best pair of headphones I have ever had. Though, I am almost always on a budget so I have never had a higher quality expensive pair.

That's the only issue I have. I wish they had better bass. But it's not a deal breaker for me. I only use them at the gym and they are great for cancelling noise, even though I wear a hoodie and the headphones over my hoodie, they sound great and don't get hot. I listen to rap, hop hop, and rock mostly. And they sound great all across the board. I like them better then beats. And if it helps. They don't fall off my head they fit nice and snug.

Sound-wise, yes, build quality, no, expect these to break apart after 6 months. I would recommend a pair of Sony MDR 7506's. They actually sound better, and are better build-wise. I love the Shure's sound, but I cannot recommend them over the Sony.ALSO, these are cheaper. You can get these here for $84.95.
