The most important thing in a quality headphone is just that, quality. I don’t care about looks as long as they give me the quality sound experience i want out of my music. According to the article, the headphones give a great performance when listening to music in the mid to upper bit range choices, which refers to the encryption process of the music. Being a Dj i download and buy music of the best quality, and therefore would find these headphones a great buy. 192 kilobytes per second is my norm, although lossless audio is by far the best but harder to find and more expensive, but lower quality ear buds lose sharpness in sound when playing at these levels, which this headphone seemingly does not. Another interesting thing the author noted is that he never has turned the ear buds up past the mid volume setting, which i really like because i love to blare my music.
On top of sound quality, these headphones offer some new and interesting technology. I hate to untangle headphones but am seemingly doing this all the time. These headphones eliminate this problem by having a flat, rubberized cable that becomes untangled very quickly. If this actually works, it would fix a major hassle. Another interesting note is that monster cable lets a little knowledge out that the average Joe might not know. Speakers require a break in time to fully use their range of sound, and the manual advises that 20 hours of play is the time required to meet this potential. The author says that this is definitely true, which is a good piece of knowledge for any novice to understand.
A downside to these earphones is the size of the bud. The author states that they are loose in the ear and often fall out, and also fit funny into smaller ear canals. They also state that due to the flat cable, it is not possible to wrap the cable around the ear to prevent this. However, the headphones come with 8 different earpieces to fit different sizes and shapes of ears, which are 6 more than i have ever seen in any other equipment. It also comes in a very nice felt case that the author says is easy to carry. If the fact that the earpieces to not fit well deters some, let it be said that you shouldn't be bringing 180 dollar headphones to the gym anyway, these babies are made for the home or walking only.
It appears that this is a quality product with many new attributes. The cord is something i am particularly interested in. 180 dollars is a lot for a piece of equipment like this, but once someone understands the difference high quality can make, they can understand that it is well worth the investment.
