It looks like Apple is trying to boost sales of Beats by Dre products. They’re temporarily offering a 10 percent discount on Beats headphones and speakers, both online and in stores. 9to5Mac says the price cut will be offered until August 23rd, “according to a source”.

My old technics 1200 black dj headphones still sound better at less then 1/2 the price sorry apple you overpaid
even if beats were $100 I’d still choose Audio Technica
When Apple outsourced ‘cool’ …
Apple jumped the shark.
Exactly.
They can take their shitty, overpriced ‘Dre’ products…(‘Dre products’…wtf??) stuff them up their asses for nothing and fuck of while they are doing it……thats all..:)
HAHAH. SO TRUE
It has nothing to do with perfect acoustics. These are bass heavy, expensive ghetto blasters built for that crowd. The marketing worked so well that people who don’t listen to that music bought them, in droves.
Apple’s impressed with Beats success with audio device marketing and Apple is getting into the music home entertainment business with Beats Music at the center and an iPad coordinating all of it.
The gypsy told me so.
Beats are pretty crappy headphones. I hate that we will have to mix for them.
That is a very telling admission.
