If you use a good mp3 player with good eq then just about anything you listen to will sound good....keyword here is a GOOD EQUALIZER

I've listened to kings of Leon on them and sound good. Great clarity and not muddy at all.

Well its by the official beats seller page, but i ask you to ask your self are theres headphones the best headphones for you? Because the sound like beats, not that thats a bad thing if you only listen to rap and other bass heavy music. If your going to listening to anything else these are not the head phones for you, my best suggestion (based on what have used and own) the ath m50x or ath m70x are what i use for every thing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yoAj-PRsZ0

I use these headphones with my metal detector. They are good for that purpose. I don't believe they are of the quality for listening to music. The plug is large, and would not fit the iPod.

Id need to know which AT cans you were talking about. The cheap AT cans I take with me to monitor ENG interviews are just as good as my BeatsPro for that application. They fall apart when compared in a studio mixing setting where I expect to hear all of the frequencies with no distortion. Beats are known for low end response so they rock for hip-hop/rap/funk. I listen to a lot of film score and jazz on them too. Again, its tough for me to say with certainty that BeatsPros are superior to AT headphones as my AT's cost less than $50 and are for a very specific use. I am btw an AT user for microphones and am a fan of their quality. Id need to know which AT cans you were talking about.

They should do just fine for that. I use these headphones for mixing and listening to streams on my PC. The frequency range is acceptable but there are better headphones out there and you'll probably pay a good bit more for them. These are super portable considering their size as they do fold up into a nice compact package. The cord may seem to be a bit long as their main focus is to be used in a music production environment.

Depends on the sort of sound you're looking for. These are better for Hip Hop, Rock, etc. The M50's have a less potent bass.

I think they do. One thing I heard about Beats is the bass is strong. I rather have an equal balance. I really enjoy these headphones. I just ordered a 2nd pair for my hubby.

These headphones have adequate bass, but the sound is well balanced. So if you're looking for something that blasts out heavy bass, you may want to buy a model for which the reviews say they have big bass sound.

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.

I've used them for music basically, but from my perspective they will be great for movies since the sounds are crisp clear. Just don't expect tons of bass since they are designed for real sound (not like Beats). These make audible things you don't hear with cheap headphones!!

Yes, just tried it, sounds good! Remember though, these are flat monitor headphones, they are not meant to accentuate bass or any other graphic band.

I think they sound fantastic. They might be a little bass heavy for you, though. They clearly are built for genres that emphasize the low end, but it's not overpowering nor does it drown out the higher tones, although the mids ARE quite recessed. But again, the "midrange scoop" is pretty common.

My son has beats which has a bass better bass response. I prefer Monster as it is better balanced in tone.

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!!

I don't know. It has less bass than any of the new headphones like Beats and SOL. I own the Beats ear buds for working out. They're perfect for that. And I own the Sol Ultra's for rock and rap, they're also awesome. And I own the AKG's for Classical/Opera/jazz/ and watching non action movies. They're amazing for that stuff.

Actually, I've found them quite good out of the Apple system and can probably compete with the Beats i have at home, they sound amazing in my computer and home system as well.. good luck with them.

Absolutely. The frequency response, even at low levels, is pretty amazing for this price level. I can't justify paying more for any headphone unless you're an extremely discriminating audiophile using high end equipment. They're just great little headphones.
