Monster Cable is continuing its push into the audiophile headphone market, announcing a pre-lauch of its Beats by Dr. Dre Tour high-resolution in-ear headphones. The new in-ear headphones are a follow-on to the company’s Beats by Dr. Dre line of enclosed headphones, but these earbuds claim to deliver the same clarity, deep bass, and power as the over-the-ear cans. The company says it’s been working on the headphones for four years…and, if you can believe it, they feature tangle-free cables.
Having dabbled in rapping, producing, and running his own company, it looks like Dr. Dre has finally moved on to the twilight phase of his career: endorsements. Monster unveiled its bass-thumping Beats by Dr. Dre headphones on Tuesday, a pair of cans reportedly optimized by Dre himself for studio-like sound.
“Artists and producers work hard in the studio perfecting their sound, but people can’t really hear it with normal headphones,” Dre said in a statement. “Most headphones can’t handle the bass, the detail, the dynamics.” To imbue the Beats with those qualities, Monster used extra-large drivers, active noise cancellation, and even a built-in digital amplifier. Yes, these are powered headphones.
