    Once you go Bose quite comforts, all other headphones are garbage.

    Bose = Buy Other Stereo Equipment

    Overpriced junk. So is Beats by Dre.

    If you're going to spend $100 to $200 on headphones, go with a pair of high end Sennheiser or Audio-Technica cans. Those brands are what the pros actually use in the recording studio so you will be listening to your music the way it was meant to be heard.

    any audiophile knows that skull candy/beats headphones are overpriced and don't perform that well. skullcandy/beats are like the bose of the home theater world. pretty much trash. go etymotics. can't go wrong with a company that was in the hearing aid industry.

    Over priced headphones, you can find much better quality/sound from other makers at a lower price.

    Someone mentioned the audio technicas. Do they offer wireless headsets with and without a built in mic?

    I rather have my Motorhead headphones. The Motorhead headphones are better and with a better price.

    Bose unfairly gets a bad rap. Yeah, sure, it's not the most faithful reproduction. It's not trying to be. That's not the point of bose. The point of bose is to use audio tricks to create the impression that the sound is coming from some other place than a vibrating surface an inch from your ear. To create the impression of depth, of distance and direction, of live entertainment.

    I did some research before I bought the Aviators,
    they got good reviews, plus DTS used them at the booth at CES.

    2 reasons:

    1: you listen very closely to the music, so the small differences in sound matter to you.
    2: You like to think that you listen very closely to the music, so the small differences in sound mater to you.

    don't forget Denon headphones.. at least equal to AT in my opinion (already comparing them)..

    and yeah, that double B, Bose and Beats, is overpriced..
