World known music exec and one of the top producers of all
time, Jimmy Iovine & Dr. Dre has been expanding with their Beats by Dre
audio brand for a few years now, and have become one major brand that deals
with pop culture and quality audio at a consumer level. They finally say goodbye to their partnership
with Monster Cable and will finally go on their own (for now). From Hewett
Packard PC and laptops, to HTC smartphones, Chrysler’s 300S, and even the new
2012 Dodge Charger, Beat by Dre is expanding and becoming a dominant name in
audio.
I am now curious to see what’s next for the music moguls and
if they able to deliver a quality product on their own?
There new lines of over-ear headphones are definitely a step
up from their earlier lines. I personally own the beats studios and love them
for a consumer headphone, although, the new beatsmixr
and pro
seem very promising.
What also amuses me is the fact that they do it to provide
quality audio and quality listening environments to the generation that is well
known for degraded audio with mp3s and compressed audio. Read more about the
end of the two companies at the original article here.
In a YouTube video here
Dre also talks about how he listens to the people and finds all the wrongs or
the thing they could add by improving the quality headphones, which is also
awesome. I can’t stress how much I dislike bad quality audio period. Bad audio
is everywhere and this generation really needs to know about listening to music
in a set of nice speakers or headphones or audio systems.
