Monster Pro Gold Turbine Headphones

Brand new in box, never opened looking for 220, or trades for CC skulls =) preferably, or even other keyboards + cash, warranty will guarantee to work on them, so if you ever break them yourself it will be covered by monster's lifetime warranty policy. The picture with the headphones out are what they look like, I already have a pair that I use and received a 2nd.

I think you'd probably be better off trying to sell these on eBay. People around here have a pretty good idea of how terrible a company Monster is.

Wyse buy colors were GSY for the dark grey, GBA for the light grey, and BBI for the fonts.

I have been using a pair for around a year now and I really like them, they are really comfortable, the highs are pretty clear, and I would say the bass is also pretty strong for IEMs

Many people would say the same for keyboards, and be rocking the ones that came with their computer =P. Thanks

I think you might be thinking of the copper one. Those are the only ones the people on head-fi.org said are worth the price.

the turbines are considered on head-fi as good too.
the normal ones are only knocked for durability, most people consider $50ish a sweet spot for them.
the gold are considered decent, not at MSRP obviously
and the copper ones are high end and considered good buys for the price

I myself just use the triple-fis that went on sale again during BF
