Noise isolation technology blocks out a significant portion of the background noise in the listening environment. These headphones do a great job reproducing in great detail the music we do not typically hear (in my experience thus far). The sound is clean and clear and not overwhelming at either end of the spectrum. Equalization can enhance the lows if desired. They are comfortable and come in a protective case with two detachable signal cables, one with a mic, and one without.

I was told by several people that for the money you could buy a much better pair of headphones. Absolutely false. After trying the Bose quiet comfort, Sony xb700 EXTRA BASS and and over 7 skullcandy headphones, nothing meet the solid bass, or steady highs that I desired. The demo at the store does not give the BEATS studio enough credit.
