Default Your teenage kids will like these. In case you missed it at the VMA - Monster DNA

New Monster DNA headphones. I just got my review sample today. Stay subscribed for my video impressions and comparison against the Beats Solo HD.

Still waiting for a more advanced set of active noise cancelling cans to replace the Senns... but it seems that market is abandoned. Sigh...

They do a nice job with their designs!
I'm curious to hear how the bass output is on these, compared to the original Beats.

I am not a fan of this color either. Black is better.
