As much as throwing ur money down the sink is *alot of it*
My opinon, don't ask for peoples advice on MPGH, they are going to be biased af.
Just try them for yourself, if you like them get em, if you don't then don't..
I asked for opinions about my Skullcandy crushers, people said they would break in a week, i still have them and they are amazing
shows what people know

this is a signature
Well true, we are going to biased, but let's use some common sense here. Why do people buy Dr. Dre Beats? Because a celebrity uses them, and this influences us to get the same product as them. If you go to anyone that isn't living under a rock, they'll know what Beats are.
Why do they cost so much? Simple: everyone wants beats, so to take advantage of the high demand, they increase the price. The actual price of the beats (getting all of the resources and putting the final product together) is probably about 1/4 of it's current price. So... Beats cost usually $200 or something like that, so the actual price is around $50 or so. This is why Beats suck. They aren't even worth it. You can get better headphones at a cheaper price if you're a smart buyer and not someone that follows trends.

Anyways, about how much the boost of the price of Dr. Beats vs. the actual price, it pales in comparison to Apple. The IPhone 5 costed about $600 when it came out (correct me if I'm wrong), yet look at the actual price of the parts: The iPhone 5 Only Costs Apple $168 For The Parts | Cult of Mac
That's why I don't like Apple products... Overpriced crap.
This is pretty much the reason why people saying building a PC is cheaper...

tldr: Just don't buy expensive headphones because they aren't worth what they seem. Look for the best type of headphones for a low price. Anything <$70 is good. Look at customer reviews, or if you can get a chance, try it out yourself.

Usually before i buy anything i look at the reviews, its just a habit of mine.. i have never owned a pair of Beats, so i can't have an opinion on if they are good or bad.. most the people here like aborted or others say they are bad because were they originated from but i bet they have never owned a pair in there life..
its what ever tho, people will be biased.. its just annoying.
ok i bought beat hd solo for 119 i might return them and get something like this X Headphones - Over-the-Head Sony Store - Sony US
for around 120$ no more with good noise cancel so other people wont hear it. The solo hd has no noise cancel
