Im with yasamoka here in whatever he says against any headphones, i used to trust those false brands too such as beats, skullcandy or whatever, if you hear sound from a proper headphone coming from a proper DAC (such as a high end pc soundcard 100$ ish) and having a proper music (320kbps for example), you wouldn't even come near your 500$ false beats or whatever, i myself have an sennheiser HD558 modded to HD 598,it is beyond epic! don't be fooled by a headphone having powerful bass because that's what ruins the sound clarity in the first place (beats for example)

Hi all,yasamoka wroteThey are overpriced. Once you hear better headphones for the same money, you'd be telling me the same.Chafic wroteA lot of you think SkullCandy is overpriced with bad audio experience, but I have seen many forget about the beats and gone either Skullcandy, TDK, Sony, Bose or Pioneer.
Im so confused about headphones, i was going to buy Skullcandy but i didnt for some reasons (same reasons that i didnt buy a beats)... Im hoping you can help me...if skullcandy is overpriced, than can you give a better choice with same price ( 100$ and less ) ...Im bass head (i like dubstep , metal , trance) and i want use it for multi-media ( movies, games) and ofrcs some vocals. Hehe i dont know, is the Audio-Technica ATH-M35 a better choice? and where to get them. im in north lebanon and no one heard about Audio-Technica :/
like Sony xb-500 ?AvoK95 wroteSkullCandy headphones are very overpriced when it comes to price, instead of spending $50 on some OEM brand, spend it on Sony and get a much better experience. If you're going earphones, the only pair I recommend from SkullCandy is the one that's the cheapest (it's $10 or something) they sound better than any other SkullCandy earphones to be honest.
