Well I don't know if the DNA's are somehow massively more amazing than beats I wouldn't expect them to be worth that price.
In my sound design class last year someone did one of their projects on a blind headphones test between a set of Bose ($300), Sony ($50), Logitech ($30) and Beats ($200).
They were blindfolded and given each set of headphones with the same song and section of movie played on each. In over 90% of the test subjects the Bose were unanimously first in quality, with the Sony's tying the Beats for second and the Logitech coming last.
So idk, maybe some people just have more sensitive ears but I saw the results of 20 different people that showed Beats (at $150 more) were no better than the Sony cans.
If you're really an audiofile, buy Bose. Otherwise, don't waste money on Monster. I guess that's just my opinion though.
