They would last longer if people took care of them. Cheap or not, they dont break on their own

To everyone blaming these results on the user, here's a text block I've posted 15 times now, and nobody has listened.

"You should not have to baby headphones. It's ridiculous. Especially ones that are meant to be portable. Build quality would not be such a gripe with headphones that are meant to be used with high-end desktop audio components, like the Audeze LCD-2, but the Beats are meant to be used with portable DAPs. Therefore, it is a requirement that they be built well."

Babying and taking care of things are different. I have a pair, and they have lasted me a while. I dont baby them, but neither do I take them off, and slam them around.

I had....

3 pairs of Solos

2 studios

1 pros

3 tours

and 2 iBeats

. Not at once, but back to back because i thought they were broken... They are possibly the worst headphones i've used.

So you're between the two extremes, the self-destructive maniac and the OCD worrier. I've used these headphones, and I was struck by how I HAD to be so careful with them. Putting them on was a traumatic experience, full of creaking and rattling. The build quality and design is just astonishingly bad, and there's simply no excusing it. From what I've seen, people that use them normally, between maniacal and OCD, break them very often just by putting them on. They clearly care about their stuff, but the headphones can't stand up to every day use. It's a bad design, and I can't believe people don't realize it. Sure, people break things, but things that are made to be used by people should have a level of tolerance. Other headphones do!
