You just know I have to ask how come there aren’t any Beats By Dre or Nokia BH-905i headphones on this list 😉

HI Mwirigu 🙂
Sorry for late reply been travelling and not great net connections… yes the trusted iphonenot travelling amazingly well. The Dre headphones I do love and thinking of getting a pair but have been focusing on less trendy ones that truly perform. Not used the Nokia .. ill give them a spin when I can… in all I have always plumped for SONY when I can.. Solid and very well built also love the rich sound they produce. For a HIP HOP man the Dre headphones I find the BASS not as good as the similar priced SONY.

1. What is their performance in the Real world? Especially regarding sound quality… Maybe i don’t know as much as an audiophile would but is the wireless spectrum wide enough to deliver lossless sound? FLAC and the likes?
2. Mwirigi: Beats By Dre are good enough for the regular consumer,but for someone on producer leverl they aren’t up to match & are sometimes frowned upon.
And, there was that incident between Engadget & Monster
Engadget endorses Monster Cable? Uh, hell no. See http://j.mp/piPqsf
Thats a tough beating by Engadget to Monster Cable.
As above I plump for SONY.. the DRE Headphones are fine for use, in fact I like them alot its just get better BASS iv found from less trendy Headphones .. 🙂 I see the incident but cant comment to be fair as I dont know the ins and outs..
So which one among these are available in Kenya?
Cant say .. how is the interntional posting for big departments? Currys? Amazon?
You have left out my headphones Sir.. I use the basic Audiosone headphones but I am dead sure they can beat all these headphones you have put here.. If you don’t believe me look for me and I can show you.
