You're paying largely for the brand with a pair of solo2 - they're fairly low-mid range headphones wrapped in an expensive package. Widely considered a waste of money among audiophiles.
Start looking here for something in your price range, and check reviews surrounding any particular set (http://www.head-fi.org/a/headphone-buying-guide http://www.head-fi.org/a/headphone-buying-guide)
- Nib 12y agoThat's the same thing I thought when I saw those headphones but, I checked them out a little more, and saw that they came with RemoteTalk cables(it's an apple thing) and I don't think any other headphones have that, do they? And ya, I'm checking out that guide as were speaking...
- sparkie 12y agoCan't comment on Apple specific technology, but the RemoteTalk seems like just another brand name. It looks like just microphone built into the cable - which is nothing new - you can get unbranded versions which will work with any headphones that have a detachable cable. Problem is maybe finding a suitable cable and headphones with detachable cable. A number of those higher quality headphones use 3.5mm male to XLR male cables, and I doubt you'll find one with a microphone. (they all seem to be 3.5mm male to male). Could just buy a wireless BT mic instead, and get a decent set of headphones.
