All joking aside though. I'm an audiophile myself and while Beats may not be the very best, they sound great and are very aesthetically pleasing.
There is however this huge hate for them in the audio community. For some reason I noticed usually white men 35+ have an unusual hate for Dre beats. They won't even try them and just discredit them right away usually or just repeat something that they heard from a website. Put some Bose infront of them and their all over it though,ASAP.
I think a lot of it has to do with subconscious feelings about who's behind the headphones. Human ears are not even that sensitive to sound ànyways.

Yeah you are a real audiophile. Named Bose as an example of why Beats are good lol.
I agree that white people might wear Bose for image but Beats are about the same. They both have different images associated with them and both are way overpriced unless you value the image. They have huge margins compared to other headphones in the same price range. If you actually believe Beats are good you can't call yourself an audiophile.
Beats look cool and are a fashion statement. I don't mind people buying them but if you are 100% looking for something with good sound to be used in your home it is a bad purchase and not what this OP should be looking at.
