Does Heaslip get paid for wearing Beats, or does he just lik

More of a Bose fan myself, great in ear equipment for runs/gym

I like Bose myself, I use QCs when I'm recording sound on location

Yup very good headphones. Nice & light and comfortable on long flights..

In general a lot of the Leinster squad get a mountain of freebies in exchange for social meeja plugs

And quite frankly that should be clamped down on. No other form of media allows the promotion of products without indicating that it is a paid for promotion

Well he definitely got the World Cup blag as promotional material.

I may have criticised Beats on here a few years ago but I believe they no longer have Monster as their manufacturer and that the cans are now decent, albeit you can buy ones just as good for half the price.

When i did an a/b on them they were not good at all back in the day though

Beats got a lot of bad press when they came out, usually from middle-aged white reviewers who use the likes of Pink Floyd as reference tracks (guys, nothing will ever make a Pink Floyd tune sound good, nothing). I find them excellent, especially the amps in the cans themselves.

If you ever meet "Dave" out in the projects. his real name is Pooky.

They were bassy with little enough regard for the rest of the frequency range.

They weren't good value even if you wanted really bassy headphones.

I have 2 pairs of Audio Technica and I tend to prefer a analytical slightly cold sound.

My 2c.

I don't like Pink Floyd either for the record.

C'mon Pook, a Prince reference is about as white, middle-aged demographic as you can get!

Pink Floyd were god.

You are all just too young to appreciate them. Or remember them in their heyday.

I am white, shuffling reluctantly towards middle age and I have no idea what any of the posts on this thread are about. Is this a record
