I really like them, I've only really used them with my iPod so far but they sound great. These are my first decent pair of headphones though, I've only ever used earbuds before so I don't have much to compare them to!
Audio Technica ATH-M50. Love these headphones!

Inadvertently bought some fakes of these! Got my money back though and got to keep them (unfortunately)
At the moment I use creative fata1ty's gaming headset which have really good sound quality
But I may treat myself to some Pro Beats. Sound quality and bass is good, noise isolation is brilliant and they feel really comfortable. Build quality is really good too.

I found them really heavy on my head. But definitely best in the Beats by Dre line.
Would love to own a pair of these =
But for now i'm settling for these (wallet currently appreciating this!

Not normally a Beats basher, but i'd advise against these unless all you care about is looks.

I am trying out the Bowers & Wilkins P5's today. I've not had a good set of headphones in a while, and my recent airplane trip emphasized how much I hate airplane noise.
Luckily I am still ~5 min from an Apple store.
The demo units sounded bass heavy, and the ones I bought are tuned the same.
I know that sound in this area is subjective, but does anyone else think the same? I don't listen to bass-heavy stuff, mainly rock/alternative/comedy/some top40.
I can play with the eq, I know, but I don't want to always be making adjustments. Anyone else feel the same way?
They may be getting returned soon.

Let it burn in for awhile, the sound balances more after some burn in. I am definitely not a bass head, but I don't think the P5's overly exaggerate the bass. But your taste might want something even more neutral. Plus 1 for using my picture! haha

What problem do you have with the beats?
I own a pair and I LOVE them. I use them daily
Theyre overpriced headphones that are heavily marketed to college students because they look good. For how much they cost, there are plenty of alternatives that sound much better.
To each of their own I suppose.
