  • This is #BeatsByDre latest iteration of the Studio line of over-ear headphones. The #BeatsStudioPro. This time around, they've added the "Pro" moniker and we know how that can go. So the questions I'll answer: Does this headset earn the "Pro" name? How does the Studio Pro sound compared to the Studio 3 Wireless? ANC quality? But there's a lot more to these headphones than just that. Watch the video and find out if their latest is right for you!

      That’s because we’re SERIOUS about high quality listening experiences over here!!😂😂 Or it could just be that I easily obsess over things and hi-fi audio has become one of them.🤷🏾‍♂️ Either way, I’m glad you found what you were looking for!😁

    Thank you for a solid review. Some reviewers make me feel as if they believe Rock or “Folk” music are the only valid sound signatures. I watched a review yesterday where the TH-camr (Mike O’brian) was a monument to ignorance. According to him “most people only buy Beats for their looks”. Forget about millions who love Rap, Dance, Electronica and other bass rich genres. Beats has it’s flaws but for people who love music with a bottom, they were better than most.

    • @TshakaArmstrong
      @TshakaArmstrong  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      And that’s why representation is important. All music is valid as a form of artistic self expression and to discount one sound profile over another is not ok. We can get objective about the width of the frequency spectrum a pair of headphones reproduces and the LUFS scale vs RMS levels but audition is highly subjective, so let’s all just enjoy what we enjoy and be sure we have enough perspectives for people to make informed purchasing decisions.

      Thank you for the video, inspite not the point here I especially appreciate the song hints, with which I just tested through my earbuds (turns out lady blacksmith mambazo is amazing with beads studio buds plus!). Did you have the chance to compare the pros with the AirPods Max, your opinion on that would interest me a lot.

    Shoutout to the paul Simon Graceland album being played. Received my navy Beats Pro Thursday as released Wednesday in uk. I like them a lot and enjoying using them. I recommend pink Floyd high hopes as well.
    Also for iOS users if you’re struggling to mess with the small power button to toggle noise cancellation just say hey siri turn on / off whatever you need transparency or noise cancellation. Or use Apple Watch which will always have the now playing screen on and bottom left of screen toggle options are there.

    Great review. Nice and thorough too. But you forgot to mention the lack of higher-resolution Bluetooth codecs (LDAC or AptX). Granted, those codecs are not available on any Apple devices, but they are standard on most modern Androids, and as long as they've done such a good job with Android compatibility, I'm really surprised they didn't take that final leap and include a high-res codec, especially at this price point and being the Beats brand's flagship product.

    • @TshakaArmstrong
      @TshakaArmstrong  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      You’re absolutely right. Thing is, after a listen, quite frankly I don’t think anyone is missing out because of it. Apple Lossless and Dolby Atmos sound delightful regardless. I think that if one were able to load AptX or LDAC support to a reference pair of Beats Studio Pros and you had the retail version and did a blind listening test of the average consumer of the product, very few would be able to discern the difference. That isn’t an excuse NOT to include it, but rather, the reason I think they left it out… that and licensing fees which Apple is NOT quick to pay.😂

    • @WargodFilms
      @WargodFilms 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That’s because apple uses there own codecs so with the hi res lossless and Dolby atmos and spatial audio. Which android don’t have it works for the beats and max perfect example use a pair of Sony xm5 the quality sounds different on android then apple device but with the beats and max I can honestly say they sound better with spatial audio and Dolby and lossless oh and tweak the eq a bit you get great sound out of these which is missing on Sony Bose and other headphones. So it’s kind of a trade off

    🇬🇧 Salutations Tshaka amazing in depth review.Just a random question which MJ album produced by Q do think sonically is the best sounding and why. Any thoughts on Sony WH 1000 M4/5 Vs new Beats studio. Thanks

    • @TshakaArmstrong
      @TshakaArmstrong  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That’s an excellent question and one I have yet to have pondered/investigated. Guess I know what I’ll be listening to for the next couple weeks.😂 As far as Sony v Beats: Beats’ b-curve profile is a deeper v than Sony, though their bass reproduction is quite similar. You’re going to get more mids w/Sony, thicker ear pads and slightly more efficient noise cancellation. I prefer Beats mechanical buttons, and clamping force for gym use. I think it really depends on ones lifestyle to determine which is more suitable. If gym/fit is life, Beats. If not, whichever sound profile best suits your listening habits.

    • @Paul-je6pw

      That's an opinion. Headphones are very personal, even moreso than speakers.
      Also, whenever you try a particular pair of headphones for the first time, you need to give your ears some time to adapt to the new sound profile.
      Personally, I've not been a fan of Beats in the past with their overblown bass and muddy mids and highs. But I gave these a listen and was pleasantly surprised. Nicely balanced, while still having good bass extension.
      And as another commenter noted, you might find that a bit of tweaking with the equalizer can go a long way.
