Koss Portapros or Koss KSC75s are your best choices in terms of sound quality. They use the same drivers, so it's a matter of which design you prefer. The KSC75s are under 10 bucks, too! Easily the best deal out there for headphones. THE best deal. If you want IEMs, the Meelectronics M6s or the Brainwavz M1s are solid choices. Personally, I'd go for both the M6s and the KSC75s since they're so cheap. Just great quality, though. It's amazing what you can get for so little.

For around 150 bucks, you can easily get headphones that are on the level of the Pros. If you pay $450 for those, they are just stupid. Easily one of the worst values I have ever seen in any consumer electronics market.

For 450 bucks, you can get a pair of Sennheiser HD 650s and a nice amp/DAC combo. The quality you get from this modest rig can make the Beats Pros look like the trash that they are. If you would rather have portability, the Aiaiai TMA-1s can compete with the Pros. They are small, well-built, light, and can be had for 150 dollars.

Ultrasone should be Monster's worst nightmare in the headphone market, but unfortunately Ultrasone is rather unheard of. This is becuase instead of dumping cash on marketing, they put it into research and development. Take a look at the DJ1 Pro, the Pro 750s, and the Pro 900s if you're interested. They all benefit from amping, as well.

Headphones above $200 that do not need amping tend to be a joke. There is a point where drivers need more power to deliver higher quality sound, and the Beats never reach it because the quality is still poor even at high prices.

I hope I prevented you from making a bad purchase, as all Beats are.

Ill Keep that in mind man thanks for the advice and saving me almost 300 dollars.
