What are the best beats by dre?

So im looking to buy some beats. I thought the studios were supposed to be the best ones, but i just looked and the pros are a whole $100 dollars more. So that kinda confused me. Does any body know the difference other than the size and the different ways to hear the things around you (button and flipping the ears up). Thanks.

    The studios have battery powered bass amplification and noise cancellation. They will not work without batteries. The Pros do not have extra bass amplification or noise cancellation. They do not need batteries. In theory, the Pros should have a more accurate sound since there's no extra electronics messing with your music.

    Honestly though, all of the Beats should be regarded as overpriced fashion accessories. If that's what you want then go ahead and buy them. If you want quality headphones, you can get much better sound quality and build quality for the money from companies such as Sennheiser, Grado, Shure, Denon, AKG, Phiaton, Ultrasone, or Bowers and Wilkins.

    Do NOT buy any beats. You are wasting your money. Youre paying for Dres name and to look cool. The sound is average. They sound about the same as a $50 Sony XB500s.

    If you have $300 lying around, get the Sennheiser 595 with the Fiio e7 amp, and you will get 5X the sound as Beats.

    Btw, I tried the Pros at Best Buy, they weight about three tons and have OK sound. Every other model breaks more than usual headphones.
