Which are better overall, these or Beats Solo 2`s?

Sms audio is much better. The build quality and the sound quality are worth the price. Beats are not.

Beats solo 2s. They are louder at lower volumes which means louder period. The Solo 2s were built to be able to perform good with all type of genres, not just hip hop.

I have both beats mixr and the audio technica athm50rd. The Beats have a higher bass response but the Audio technica seem to provide a more balance sound.

Never buy Beats. They're overpriced, overhyped branded normal headphones with unequal levels. get the ATH-M50 model. any of them. just never buy beats anything.

Never used the Jaybirds, but the one advantage they have over the Backbeat GO 2's is nearly twice the battery life (up to 8 hours vs 4.5). Since I love the fit, functionality, and sound of the BBG2's, battery life is the only downside...but not enough to make me regret my purchase.If I could do it all over, I wouldn't change a thing.

Try the S1 model. It's way lighter than the S2. Microphonics is hardly present on both models. Before you make a purchase, consider changing se215 eartips first.

They're both really great and I doubt you'll be disappointed with either one of em. Both the headphone's sound quality appeal to your sense of music. I think your decision will have to rely on the physical body of the headphones. If you're looking for a lightweight headphone on-the-go type of style, I'd recommend the momentum 2.0. If you want heavier, tighter, more durable type with better passive noise cancellation get these. Of the two, the momentum is more comfortable. But I really love the noise cancellation of these.

These are closer to the studio version. In my opinion the solo beats are a bit flimsy, these look more appealing. Bought as a Christmas gift for my fiance and chose these because they look more sturdy and masculine. Hopefully this helps you.

Fake or Not these Beats literally have almost the same quality as the fake ones. The difference is this just has little better sound quality. If you want celebrity headphones I would get the SMS by 50 cent on ear headphones. They are not popular but worth it, the sound and construction is so much better. If you have anymore questions then I'm happy to answer.

If all you want is the highest quality regardless of price, Bose is usually the way to go. That said, these are very good in their own right and when you factor in the price difference you'll probably soon not really notice the difference unless you are constantly switching between the two. I bought these as a gift for my father who had these second to the Bose on his wish list due to the spec sheet (better high freq. suppression in Bose) - until I pointed out to him that according to his doctor's hearing tests for the past decade neither he nor his hearing aid are able to hear/replicate those frequencies - so the quality difference for him really is NOT noticeable. I have never used Beats nor know any who has, but reviews still rate the Bose higher - and for the money that the Beats cost - I'd probably stick with the Bose.

I don't have Beats so I did not have chance to compare, but I absolutely love this headset - it has battery life which lasts me through week plus of intermittent listening (1-2 hours a day on average), bass is pretty great, overall clarity of music is much better than I had before, fit comfort is great. They are relatively compact (they are not the small one folding), but they do fit in into my work backpack so now it makes my air trips more comfortable than ever as they provide pretty good noise isolation. Paired it with my macbook, working macbook, Android nexus 5, iPad so it now is very quickly to start listening to music very quickly no matter there I am I don't have Beats so I did not have chance to compare, but I absolutely love this headset - it has battery life which lasts me through week plus of intermittent listening (1-2 hours a day on average), bass is pretty great, overall clarity of music is much better than I had before, fit comfort is great.

I have had the DR DREI Beats when they first came out and they fell apart and I ddint like em. and then got the Bose ie1 and with the foam tips the bass and all is very good. they sound much beter than the DR drei beats and the Boss IE1 I dont know how they compare to the Boss IE 2 but. they are thgew best sounding pair Iv had so far. but I notice a big difrence with the foam tips, and I plan to up grade the cable hope that will give them even beter bass . I hope this was of some help. I do recamend these they live up to there claim just keep the tips in mind.

Actually, I've found them quite good out of the Apple system and can probably compete with the Beats i have at home, they sound amazing in my computer and home system as well.. good luck with them.

I do not recommend this product to you is just wrong. I buy 2 and failed. Now I have Beats 2 and they are the best, and it is compatible with your devise.

I have never owned the Solo HD's. I think these are very durable. I have been using them at nights walking on my tread mill and my son takes them to school everyday.

The bass quality is better than in Beats, but I don't know about compared to other brands.

Hi Ben. Sorry, can't give you a compare of IE800's to Solo2 or HD700. I haven't owned them or listened to compare. I read in some reviews where people compared IE800 as little brothers of HD800, which are a higher model compared to HD700. What I can tell you about IE800 is following. These are very tiny year buds and the way how they are constructed they are suited more for listening while seating still. They only come with rubber tips that don't hold firmly in your year canal and you don't have the option of wrapping the cable around the year like you'll find in Sure models. I personally find myself having to push them back in place while walking. They also come with a very short cable which you may find a problem as well. You may want to check if Sennheiser offers an additional longer cable sold separately. If you intend using year buds while in active motion, I think Sure SE846 or SE535 models will be more suitable. SE535 have very weak base, in my opinion. SE846 are comparable to IE800. Sure's also come with polyfoam tips that expand in your year canal and hold in place more firmly and also provide better sound isolation. Hope this helps.
