Want to Hear What Dr. Dre Hears

August 21, 2008 | Leave a Comment

Just recently, my headphones finally broke.  I have been looking for a new pair of dj headphones.  While I was looking, I came across these headphones called Beats by Dre.  Yes, you heard correct headphones designed by Dr. Dre.  The headphones are manufactured by Monster (the same people who make the monster cables).  The headphones have been getting critical praises, and $350 I surely hope so.

Dre, who for three years collaborated with Jimmy Iovine, chairman of Interscope Geffen A&M Records, and audio “connectivity” company Monster to create the Beats, says his goal was to give people a way to “hear what the artists hear and listen to the music the way they should — the way I do.”

However, I don’t know if I’m ready to pay $350 for headphones unless I come into some small windfall, but I can dream.
