But at the same time the display headphones at Best Buy aren't really in a position to be broken. I mean they're stuck to that display so they never have to be stored in a book bag, duffle bag, or laptop case. People also aren't allowed to walk around with them and they're never exposed to the elements. Basically it's always a bad sign when an extremely controlled display model can't handle regular use.
Based on reviews I've read of the product you are very lucky and in the future if I ever decide to have kids I would trust you to baby sit them. In fact that should be the test for parenthood. How long can you keep a pair of Beats headphones without them breaking. One year and you reach platinum status.
With that said, little doubt they sound good. Though I haven't listened to them for more then a few minutes at a time. I imagine my ears would be ringing after a 2 or 3 hour trip from the bass response.
