His body's not a canvas, and he wasn't raised by apes.

9 words....wow!
Beagle - yes those ones. They're very nice wrt tonality, mids forward, somewhat rolled off highs, super smooth, and hearty but not overdone bass. Quite musical and enjoyable cans. They look and feel great in person too. I'm curious how the DT would compare - they would appear evenly matched just based on marketing and price, but the ESW9 aren't just a pretty face, they'll deliver sonically as well. Which is what separates them from the Beats and other fashion cans imho. My only complaint is their relatively narrow stage, but I think that's more to do with their size than anything else.
Try this story, then:

Wow, I was ambivalent about this company, until now. I thought folks didn't like them since their products were more hyped than substance.
This is horse crap...I just hate companies/folks who feel that they can just bully people around (and abuse the patent system). Like Donald Trump tried to trademark "You're fire!" C'mon man, be real!
I do have some Monster cables (which I thought work just fine). I guess it's time to ditch them. Thanks for the story!
Ifinally watched the entire clip today and I got to say Noel Lee was very honest in this interview. Credits to him for this.
Lets be real, Monster simply are not trying to aim for the audiophile.
How can we take them serious with these current models squarely aimed at mass market?
This one? No I haven't. Do you recommend it? I was curious about it for the last year or so but never pulled the trigger on them. I assume it has a nice tonal and FR balance?
Just trying to be constructive for a moment... But to anyone at Monster who cares: I would be happy to check out your new headphones/IEMs (BEFORE they are released) to give you some useful and constructive feedback.
As.stated monster aims for style... Unless ur Gucci Man I doubt they want some one who listens well to improve the sound.
