The sound quality of the Tour’s is certainly comparable to the Ultimate Ears and Shures of the audio world, but let’s face it, most of these ‘buds are overpriced, and there are few that can deliver the same high performance results for under $200.

I'd recommend the Beats by Dr. Dre Tour High Resolution In-Ear Headphones. It's solidly constructed and cool looking, with heavy low end and a secure fit that keeps the stereo image consistent.

These headphones sound fantastic, there is plenty of bass and music sounds just as good as through high quality speakers in a car or home theater. The ear tips that are included with these headphones, though numerous, all seem to miss the mark on fitting my ears. The short tips seem to wobble a...

Pros: Great sound, lots of bass, clear highs and mids with EQ manipulation, no distortion at high volume, LOW (not no*) tangle cord, extra ear buds. Cons: expensive, cord near the jack started to fray after about a month due to the cord being flat, had to send it back to Monster for a new one...

If there's one thing about Beats, they know how to advertise. Complete crap for the price, a gimmick. You're paying for the Beats label, not sound quality.
