    Didn't you ask on here and get told by all and sundry to get sennheiser ones?

    </shakes head in disappointment>
    Yeah and you all recommended wired ones where as I wanted wireless so you all failed the requirements

    The bass from the Beats is far better than the MM-450X, if I wanted a more balanced sound I would probably have gone for the Sennheiser's, but then again I am an Apple fanboi at heart aren't I!

    Ah that's ok then, I was worried you had succumbed to looking like victim of a 1970's Blackspoitation film.

    Really? You don't believe it is possible for a permie to earn more than you? What's your skill-set and day rate.

    Don't forget to make them the big over the head things with a massive band and huge earmuff type speakers, they're really popular with the fashion victim types. While they may look ok on a DJ in a club look absurd on the street or in the office, they do provide a fairly good laugh when I see them.
