Beats by Dr Dre

[ozguy3825]

Gday guys, i'm looking at getting myself a pair as i tried some instore last week and they r amazing. Theres lots on ebay but i came across these.....they r coming from Hong Kong which makes me question them straight up but pretty much everyone except 1 or 2 people agree they r the real deal but y so cheap? Worth giving them a go ya think?

Looking at his recent negative feedback i would not be touching them.

Went to the market here in Melbourne on the weekend for the first time in years and there was every second stall selling these knock offs for $40.00, they are good looking knock offs and you could probably only tell by the poor sound quality.

If you want to buy something decent and worried about authenticity, personally I would buy them locally

beats are good. my only negative with them (mus tbe cause im getting old lol) they hurt my ear drums after a while haha.

I went to the dandenong market on Saturday and they were everywhere. Super cheap and I'm sure super knock-off

Why do you actually want Beats? They are like the hype surrounding the iPod white earbuds when they first came out. Realistically check out some proper headphones from sites like these:
http://www.headphones.com.au/ (Really good forums for advice)
http://www.djwarehouse.com.au/#1 (Good service instore)

Be careful most out there are fakes

 

[Jyeza17]

Fakes still sound great had mine for a while sound better than normal headphones

 

[GarnettFan4Life]

You can absolutely tell the difference between fakes and real if you have listened to the real ones in store. They are well worth the money for sound clarity IMO freakin love them.

Watch the YouTube vids on how to tell fakes. I got mine off eBay and they are awesome. And you have buyer protection anyway. Can't lose.

well they are designed for jsut that. my beats are very punchy with the bass. I think cellphones ruined my ears though because i used to get an ear ache and headache talking on my old mobile haha.

one day ill get the sennheiser HD800s lol. Apprently they are out of this world and hand made too with all magnets, resistors etc.. perfectly matched on both sides lol.

anyone know of another good brand that are earbuds?

Sennheiser CX 880 WEST should be pretty good.

If you go to a JB Hifi, they have a Senneiser catalgue (might be online on Sennheiser webstie too actually) comparing what each model of headphones is good for in terms of different genres. That way you can get the best for the music you listen the most.
