Well yes for about $0.50 I could get another cable (none of that rocketfish or monster cable crap mind you), but for all that money you've invested you should at least expect your headphones to be more durable. The fact that the cord wears away on its own is disturbing enough.


Well most cables do that...I've had to replace the cables on half of my cables, but I'm pretty reckless.


Yo dawg, I heard you like beats so I bought you cables with cables so you could replace them while you replace them.

The difference is the cords that come with the Beats headphones are 3.5mm male to male detachable cables. Having these wear out on their own is simply unusual.

Why? They're still cables. The fact that they're detachable doesn't make them impervious to stress and inevitably, losing of connection due to a solder joint failing or the wearing out of wire.

Compared to something like an Ultrasone or a Denon, but compared to some Skullcandies, they're pretty good. It all depends on the frame of reference. If you go from the Skullcandies that are mediocre, then Beats will be an upgrade (but Solos would be a downgrade). If you've actually listened to good gear, then the Beats will sound pretty crappy.

Beats are just for style, they don't even have that great of bass, that is if you don't get the studios.
