Beats Solo Dr Dre Headphone Review



Hi guys welcome back to itsdankreviews, today we are looking at the beats solo headphones. From the get go I can tell you that the build quality is impressive, it's well crafted and in my mind it looks good on my head as well but that's about where the quality ends. The first time I played a song with these on my head I thought the unit was broken and after a bit of a play around I discovered that this is just how the unit, actually, sounds.

It's as if the design portion of this headphone took 50% of the budget with an additional 40% going towards marketing and finally the last 10% was invested into two incredibly small audio drivers which repeatedly succeed in underwhelming the listener with under tuned mids and undefined treble. Maybe the festival of bass was further amplified by an equally bass laden equalizer, the kind you can find turned on by default on the HTC One. Ironically, when "beats mode" is turned on and you're actually using beats headphones, the result is that you need to turn the volume up to actually hear lyrics and by the time you do that you've exceeded the spectrum of base that the headphones can actually deliver which results in a sound that's pretty close to an un tuned radio.

Short conclusion? For 250 Aussie dollars go do yourself a favour an buy the Klipsch s4 in ear's for 60 bucks on ebay. Not only have they been the best in ears you can buy at that sound price, you'll also not be wearing a big label on your head notifying everyone that you've spent 250 big ones and have no idea what sound quality is. Better yet, 250 can get you some decent audio technica's or the Klipsch x10i in ears. Hope you guys enjoyed the review, be sure to hit the like button and subscribe!
