ANC inherently changes the sound quality. Don't get it unless you need it.
Ok. Thank you for the help

sorry for bringing this back up but is it worth lowering my standards from the ath-m50s to any of these or does anyone know of a deal on the ath-m50s for $100-$110?

If you were already gonna drop $100+ on Beats then no :)
Any of those pairs are good though.
Like I said upthread, they have price drops all the time. If you have patience, you'll find a deal.

I'm a little late to reply to this thread...

I highly do not recommend buying beats on eBay, 90% of them are a high quality China copy. I have purchased for resale a while back, and in was sent fake ones, I did a lot of research on this.

There are a lot of sellers that are Top-Rated and they are selling fake without even knowing that they are fake.

One of the easiest ways to tell the fake is if they have duracell batteries included. Only the genuine ones ship with batteries the fake ones don't include batteries.

There are a bunch of others ways to tell ect...

Do the batteries mean real or fake?

I never implied otherwise. Most sold on eBay are fakes.
If you wanna make sure you're getting real beats headphones, you gotta buy it from a legit store or website. NEVER buy Beats from ebay, as there is a huge market for fake Beats (just look at all the chinese on the subways...)
Bose headphones are great, and they have a great punch, but the pro of Beats is def the clarity. You hear what the producer wanted you to hear, without extra crap. Really clean.
Hell yeah, they are overpriced, but they are good. I'm talking Beats Studio.

No need to go higher than that for a good pair.
The Audio-Technica M50's are an awesome pair. They cost $160 on Amazon right now, but drop frequently in price. If you keep an eye on them, you can probably get them for $110. I picked up a pair in November for $105.

This is alla matter of taste, you gotta try them on your own. I HATED the Audio-Technica...

Audio is totally subjective but you must be either deaf or joking to claim that the Beats sound clearer than the ATH's. The Beats sound like 2 subwoofers strapped to your head with a blanket in between the headphone and your ears. You may like that particular sound signature, but to claim that the Beats sound clearer than the ATH's is simply ludicrous.

I guess it's a matter of sound taste. I don't think Beats are the best, but I think they are better than ATH. Can we agree to disagree?

We can agree that you like Beats better than ATH, but not that Beats sound clearer than ATH.
This is a graph comparing the frequency response charts of the Beats Studio compared to the ATH M-50's. Hint: Flatter is better.
