    I've had the HD 228 for years now and it is no where near as good as any Beats headphones. So that isn't really a point to be made.

    However, it is good value for money. Although not this listing in particular.

    Voted cold.


    Really ? Any beats better than any Sennheisers is very doubtful IMO


    How good do you think these headphones are? They are okay at best.

    Also if you think any Sennheiser is better than even the most expensive Beats headphones, then you are deluded. As expensive as they are, Beats headphones are of a decent standard.

    Look nice. Not seen or tried this model before, but never had a duff pair of Sennheiser's.

    I agree that is the better deal but I have posted these as an alternative as they are more for the fashion conscious

    Also if you think any (edit: should probably say "all" instead of "any") Sennheiser is better than even the most expensive Beats headphones, then you are deluded. As expensive as they are, Beats headphones are of a decent standard, although I wouldn't personally spend that much money on them.

    Yeh because £30 hd229 headphones are better than Beats Pro. Like to see you rationalise that one.

    ANY Sennheiser is what you said pal.

    There are several pairs of Sennheisers that would wipe the floor with beats.

    I knew this would happen. People pick a sentence out of context and then pick a point for a no reason.

    Read gazzjenks post perhaps and see why I might have said that.

    No not really, you took the conversation to a different route by adding 'Also' and something along the lines of - if people think that ANY Sennheisers are better than the most expensive beats, then they are deluded.

    I merely pointed out that was ridiculous.

    Please, lets not clog up this deal any further. You are wrong, it happens sometimes. Let it go and enjoy your beats.

    I love it when people get very personal over headphones lol... It's a matter of choice guys surely... I personally have some Audio Technicas which for me are bang on the buck. I like posting these type of deals to see the Beats haters and yes sometimes lovers have their say. The point I'm trying to make is for most, although not all, Beats are mainly fashion conscious and I believe these to be a decent alternative for a much lower price.. That's all

    V-Moda Crossfade M-80 / V-80 are far superior to any Beats headphones and great value

    They also look pretty cool and unique

    To be fair what he said made sense, you just took it wrong. "Any" as in obviously the cheaper ones aren't going to be better than expensive beats just because they are sennheisers.

    I agree. I'm certainly no Beats fan but ghost101 is right here.

    No matter what you have against the pricing, they're still better quality than a pair of £40 cans, Senny or not.

    "Fanny is an iconic representation of the merging of technology and fashion." :(

    Haha - I don't know if their company name will backfire or not

    My limit is £50 for headphones but for £150, the V-Modas would be my premium choice

    The V-Modas are up there with those costing £300 (Beats Studios should be priced £80ish)

    I have the Adidas version of these headphones, extremely light headphones but durable. Good sound isolation, but need some burn in time until the bass is at its best and the tweeters have adjusted. Well worth getting if you like to run or like to wear headphones while walking around a city or whatever, as they dont get uncomfortable as they're so light.

    Also, no Beats by Dre headphones can compare with these, Sennheiser best DJ or portable headphone, and probably the best in the world, when you pair it with a proper amp:
