In recent news in the headphone world, Ludacris decided to introduce some new headphones, known as the Soul. Aesthetically, they appear very similar to the Beats by Dr. Dre (as a head-fier, I highly disapprove of the Beats. Try an Ultrasone Pro series/HFi series or Pioneer HDJ2000 if you want bass both are cheaper by far and built far better, the HDJ being magnesium). What Ludacris claims is that these headphones offer the studio quality, flat frequency response you'll find in headphones such as the Audio Technica ATH-M50, the AKG K702, Sennheiser HD-650,and other such studio monitors. I may demo these in the future once I acquire a proper DAC/amp, but until then, I'm opposed to say these will most likely be a rehashed version of beats with the same bloated bass, recessed mids, and piercing headache inducing highs. Oh, and a lack of sound stage. If they do maintain the advertised quality of sound, many people may have just found their outside "style" headphones.
