Just received this a few minutes ago. I am very excited to show you guys. I really like the idea behind it. Can't wait to get home. Stay tuned for unboxing video and impressions.

I think more manufactures should make things from recycled materials.

See documentary trailer.

Mike,
Why do the headphone have cables, batteries, & are bluetooth? Are they cordless & hardwire-able? I noticed on the Dan Patrick show on Directv most of the guys were wearing Beats headphones. The cables for the headphones Dan Patrick uses are huge. I guess this brand is doing well.
Thanks for the write-up Mike.

Do you collect beats headphones?

I have a penchance for buying too many cans but even I don't buy variations of the same ones

The Studio is not wireless. Beats do make a wireless BT version for $279.

People aren't seeing the entire picture on these headphones. There are a lot of features on Beats headphones done right while other headphone manufactures missed. A lot of people hate on Beats for one reason or another. For me, I think some models sounds great and perhaps the BEST for Rap/Hip Hop music. If you don't like that genre, Beats is NOT for you.

This is clearly a niche product.

That's the older Monster/Beats product. Which model is that?

I think for most audiophiles, the issue is that Beats headphones are deliberately bass-heavy to the detriment of the rest of the sonic spectrum. It is the same criticism that many have of bass-shy/top end-heavy components. The fact that you are missing part of the sonic picture is inherent in the design of the component. I say this as someone who listened to a lot of hip-hop in college.

Are there any beats cans that are active noise cancellation yet?

Still looking for the next great thing to take down my Senn PXC450's... they seem hard to unseat for those that like to ignore noise on a plane.
