Beats confusion

[Danjw1991]

Hey all,

Just a quick question about Beats (not my choice but for a teenage birthday!)

Whilst not convinced by them myself, I need to make a purchase of either the new Solo 2 or the Mixr. Whilst the new solo headphones seem to have much better reviews than the original solos and are the newest model of the product range, the Mixrs are still more expensive.

Leading me on to my question ... is anyone in a position to comment on how the Solo2 and Mixr versions compare in quality and performance. I cannot seem to find any direct comparisons online.

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Dan

I doubt you will get much experience on here of Beats headphones unfortunately. Have you tried iPhone forums?

The Mixr's earpads (unless they update them someday) are quite stiff and the headphone is uncomfortable. But the Solo2 not only sounds better (and has rave reviews), the earpads are very, very comfortable and very well made.
