You should try the Radius Atomic Bass. They recieved better rating than the V-moda Vibe, Bose and Skullcandy from CNET and they only cost $39.99. The sound quality is fantastic and they also fit small ears and stay in your ear if you go running or jogging. They are also made out of aluminum body and reinforced joints so they can take alot of abuse. You will not be dissapointed with these earphones.

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.

I have both beats mixr and the audio technica athm50rd. The Beats have a higher bass response but the Audio technica seem to provide a more balance sound.

I have a pair of Audio Technica ATH-M50 and an array of V-Moda Crossfades. Both are good. However, if it's just listening to my audio players or home entertainment system, the V-Moda produces the detailed sound that I want more than the ATH-M50... this is where the Crossfades become my number 1 preference. If it's a recording session, tech booth monitoring or mixing task, I prefer the ATH-M50... it has a more flat response which is very ideal for monitoring and recording. So, if it's just for everyday listening pleasure with your audio/video player, for me the Crossfades win! As for overall quality feel, the Crossfades have a slight advantage.

More refined, better quality bass. Better mids and hights. I will quote this reviewer who heard a cheaper and not as good pair of Ultrasone's, "I have the ultrasone hfi 580s and am borrowing my friends beats pro over the weekend and i have compared them. The beats suck. They have decent bass but the music lacks mids/ highs, clarity and depth. Ultrasones kick the crap out of beats in th bass catagory. The ultrasones have a deeper and tighter bass. It sounds great. In the beats, the bass is only ok, it sounds flat and artificial. My sennheiser hd 238 has about as much bass unamped an they are half th size!" Hope this helps.

If you want bass that does not muddy up the mids and highs but are heavier than the mids and highs, definitely V-Moda M100's. Get the xl pads with them if you have big ears though. Check out this review http://www.innerfidelity.com/content/bassheads-delight-v-moda-crossfade-m-100

I've worn both of these actually. And I've found the M50X's to be amazingly good for the price. They're extremely comfortable, and they're a good choice overall. Nonetheless, the P5's get the edge. The sound is neutral on both of them, but the P5's sound is a bit more nuanced, and true to the source material. (And if you're looking for something with thumping bass, neither of these are your friend - I'd look at beats for that). The P5's are also much more "luxurious". The padding, the presentation, and the details - everything is a step up, albeit at a heftier price tag. I would definitely recommend trying both out at a store if you can - it's a close one.

Beats isn't really good. They sound muddy and is not worth $300. When you buy the beats, you're pretty much paying for the brand, not the sound quality. But the beats do have good bass. And they do look great.On the other hand, the bose 15 has better sound quality, clarity, and amazing noise cancellation. The bose are smaller and weight less then the beats. You can wear bose for hours. That's how comfy they are. The beats start to hurt your ears after about an hour. In my opinion I kinda like how the bose 15 look. It all comes done to this: looks or sound quality.

Well, I have compared both in person. If you want better quality with less bass, x5. x7 has more bass but less quality. I am kind of an audiophile and I recommend the x5 for overall but x7 for bass. The x5 is by far more portable too. Both are amazing but I like the x5 more. If you don't mine a slight lack of quality, x7 is for you. Also, depending on your activity with it. I am a student and travel around a lot, I favor the x5. Hope this helps.

They're not very stylish. I would buy the smaller sized V Modas. The "on ear" pair. these are the "over ear". These in my opinion have the same quality as the small version but the small ones look way better

Sure, go ahead and take a bite of the apple, you surely won't die!Seriously, why take the chance. Go with the Skullcandy Ink'd instead. They sound nearly exactly like the more expensive V-Moda Base Freq.

I'm not sure (no pun intended) what qualifies as "better", I believe they are pretty much the same (thinking of foam design and density). The real advantage is that the Shure tips are intended for Shure products, and I have had great luck with them. Fit, both in your ear and on the device is the key to great sound, at truth be told, these are the cheap part, but in short I think they are more the same than different. I hope that helps.

The quality should be the same, but you can always check www.beatsbydre.com to verify. As far as one color being cheaper, it is just the supply and demand of each one and what people are willing to pay for the color they want.

I have the m50s limited edition. I prefer the hm5 better just because it's more neutral sounding. M50s is abit v shape to me, where you can hear the high and bass really well but the mid abit laid back. I also think the hm5 have better soundstage. However do note you will need about 100 hours of burning time for the hm5 to get it settled and the sound will change through out the burning process. The other thing I like about the hm5 that it is quite easy to mod. Mine has a cable upgrade and a wood cup now. However if u looking for option should check out Beyer and akg as they also have good stuffs as well just not in the price range of hm5. I have the m50s limited edition.

In my opinion, completely with the 50$. The solo beats only cover so much of the ear. Whereas, the studios cover the full ear. And I believe the studios are much stronger bass wise. If you are into that stuff.

I think the v-moda bass freqs are the best the Jbuds and the cobys are far lesser quality
