Just got the Beats Solo HD special edition. Prefer these over the Beats Studio because it does not require batteries.

Comfortable to wear and the audio has been above average for me. Will test music control and phone calls soon.

They sounded like listening through a sheet of mud to me and an hour with them on my head resulted in a feeling not unlike someone taking two stones and banging them on my ears.

Ironically the less of an acoustic seal you get, the more tolerable it sounds... but I had an excellent seal (which is the point of a closed portable phone in any case), which meant I could hear the sheet of mud pretty clearly while walking around.

Was quite a disappointment after the Beats Studio, which was on the decent side of tolerable. I do like the ControlTalk system though. I wish Monster sold the cable separately with a 3.5mm socket at the end... fat chance of it happening however.

Either way, the Solos feel too small for me.
