I have a pair of them for when im driving shitty work cars with no radio.

SOOO much bass.. but its controlled punchy and very listenable and doesn't wash out all the other frequency's ie anything by beats,

Haters dont really hate you, they hate themselves because you're a reflection of what they wish to be.

Only their top of the range stuff is, anything <500 is piss poor comparative to other brands.

FTFY. Now it includes the AKG 701s and Beyer 880/990s.

So many stupid uneducated suggestions.
Ska/Samo on the right track.
You are looking for Circumaural headphones that go over your ears and around it, not sitting on it.
K701/2s, AD700s would be terrible for dubstep, they have almost no bass and are extremely detailed, not something you need with basslines.

my personal choice with that budget would probably be the Shure 440s

and the next xboxer who thinks they should suggest beats, just don't. Go do some research and figure out why...

how hard is it for people to realise you should read a thread properly before posting. in a recommendations thread its also generally good to backup your suggestion with reasoning to say why you think its worthwhile.

dont bother with anymore pc vs console posts as if i see anymore itll get the posters banned. moved to the hardware section.

It always amuses me when people suggest to do some research on a product before recommending it and the research shows that it's a good product.
www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/hardware-canucks-reviews/14241-beats-dr-dre-headphones-review-8.html

With that said, I'd still avoid them because they are without a doubt overpriced. Would take one of samo's suggestions as they're better value.

excuse me one second.. im going to vomit, ill be right back.

edit: i'll elaborate, Beats by Dre are waaaay overpriced for their performance. It's all marketing BS. Just look at the homepage and straight away you see the Monstor logo. That in itself should be a dead give away.
i shouldnt laugh because you were 'bagging' what i said. But none the less i guess you do have a good point
