Complete ripoff! You can buy studio quality headphones for less. This is overpricing taken to the extreme. And the quality does not match the ridiculous price tag. Probably costs them about $5.00 to manufacture this crap.

As a comparision - these are excellent headphones - with three different modes (small 3-way switch under the earpad)

Can I politely suggest you consult a clinical audiologist? Why not get a taste of the real thing and try one of these?
And how about defining ’studio quality’. Some of the noises I’ve been exposed to in studios I sure couldn’t call ‘quality’.

If that’s too rich for you try sampling a few of these.

 But why did he get the plastic surgeon to make him look like Sharon?

I sometimes wonder whether these so-called 'influencers' (people who just repeat what they have heard somewhere else BTW) are actually under the influence. Nuts!

Madonna facing a 'class action' from fans for continually being 2hrs late for concerts.
why are they late?
their lives revolve around the 'show' when on tour, how can it be that difficult to be somewhere on time especially when they employ people to run their day-to-day lives for them
surprised Axl Rose hasn't been hit with a similar class-action as he also has a reputation for being late to shows

Janet Jackson headlined an R+B festival here in Perth last Friday
anyway, the reviews of JJ weren't that good,
lacklustre, lethargic were two words bandied around in regards to her performance, the fact she was supposedly Lip-Syncing sent hundreds of fans leaving early:

as one of my friends suggested: its not the worst thing a Jackson has been accused of !!!
