SMS Audio Street by 50 Review

2012-06-04
hey it's your average consumer I just want to let you guys know that this channel was made with the average consumer in mind alright let's get to another tech video hey what's going on the guys at your average consumer and today I'm gonna be reviewing the street by 50 cent alright it's not wasting time let's get right into it alright guys so here we have the street by a 50 and the first thing I want to say about these headphones is that the build quality on them are is excellent it's a very solid pair of headphones it feels like a premium set it's very durable as you can see here I can twist it up any way and I don't even have to worry about these snapping in half or anything like that now I wouldn't even that would in dare you to try that with the beats by dre or even the sold by Ludacris so I think they did a really good job in making these durable and I built strong and I think that's like 50 Cent's kind of thing like he wants it to be built strong like he is or something like that but they do a good job in making these a really durable pair the quality of the materials feels great you definitely feel like you have a premium set of headphones when you wear these and it's got some really nice blue on black gum coloring and the stitching on the top is really nice as well it's a very comfortable to wear I have no complaints as far as the how comfortable these headphones are my ears fit right into these big ear cups and it just felt great to wear um my only issues with the as far as the build quality goes is just how big these are in comparison to some other headphones that are in competition with as far as size goes the beat studios are actually a bit smaller than the street by 50 as you can see here the street by 50 actually kind of dwarfs the studios and I've always considered the studios to be too big for my liking and that just gives you a sense of feeling like how big this street by 50 are so when you have these around your neck they're very it's just really bulky and that's usually where I keep my headphones and the problem with that is that you can't put those you can't put the street by 50 away in a shell case or anything like that because they're not bendable they're not foldable they can only stay in this position and the only thing you can carry then is this little pouch that they provide in the box now you're not gonna want to put it in the pouch and then like in a book bag or anything all the time or whatever you're carrying around so it's most likely that you're gonna be having these on your like hanging around your neck for the majority of time you're using them and they're just a little too clunky for me in that aspect is just it's just I didn't really feel comfortable walking outside with them on because I just felt like it just drew a little too much attention to me and I just really couldn't go with these as far as you know a pair of headphones that looks nice outside but that's the only thing I had with it it wouldn't be too much of an issue if it can fold up inside of case and I can store the case somewhere but unfortunately it's not bendable so these are like pretty much this is all you get you can't really do much with it they're really standard as far as features but you know that's my only complaint as far as the build call it like I said it's very durable the materials great and you know just not being both just not being bendable and it being a little too large for me are the only setbacks as far as the build quality of these and the form factor now another thing about these headphones is that the sound quality on them is really nice I can't say that I was I was like wild or shocked or anything like that I do feel like they were pretty standard I have seen online that some reviewers think that it sounds really great maybe it might be better for someone who's an audiophile who can pick up on the little cues that maybe your regular average consumer can as I use these item really pick up anything special about them the base wasn't as heavy as the beats that I'm used to even though it promotes that it has some superior base I'm not sure what they called it but they do mention that they it has some like really good base I got the base out of it when I had at high volumes but that can be said about a lot of headphones so it was just a little lacking on the base but like I said before a lot of your viewers felt that these are some good headphones and the base didn't overpower songs so if you're not if you're looking for a good pair of headphones that the base isn't overpowering but still there then these are definitely the way to go but like I said before I didn't worry there weren't too many things about the sound quality that I could pick up that made it different from you know other headphones really so that's something to keep in mind if you're really good at picking up little little things that maybe regular person can't you might find a better experience with these than I have but as your average consumer I really didn't pick up anything that wowed me in that regard so you know it has the good sound quality if you're looking for a good pair of headphones that have you know decent bass nothing that'll overpower the music then this is the way to go because you know you can't really go wrong with the sound quality that have experienced anyway besides the bass also because of the size D of these headphones although it doesn't have active noise-cancelling like a switch or anything like that it has passive noise cancelling due to the sheer size of the ear cups and how much they cover your ears so these can isolate some noises from the outside if that's a good job at you know sealing your ears in and you know preventing noise from leaking inside so that's pretty nice you know passive noise canceling and that means no having to use a switch or anything like that to use that feature so which is really nice these go for about 2 49.99 honestly it's a little overpriced for me in my particular case because I didn't find anything special about them as far as the sound quality goes so maybe a little overpriced for me because I can't pick up on the things that maybe these headphones do offer as you can see here these are you see how big it is around my neck so this is just a little bit a while this is just a little of what I was talking about earlier where I don't really like how large it looks it's you know a little clunky to me on me the sound didn't really stand up stand up against the crowd of headphones that I've tried out so you know there's some things to keep in mind like I said the best thing about these headphones is the durability and it's the fact that it's so bendable like this is just nuts I don't know a headphone that can do this besides these so that's just something to keep in mind if you want something that seems like it's gonna be really durable lasts for a while I think these are the way to go so pretty much that's it for my review guys if you're interested in the headphones go out and get them they're they're pretty nice you can find them at RadioShack for two $49.99 K+ might possibly have them at Best Buy Apple store I'm not too sure but I got my parrot RadioShack and yeah hopefully you like if you get them let me know how you like them and this has been your average consumer if you like this video please feel free to rate comment and subscribe definitely subscribe I love subscriptions but thanks for watching again guys and I'll see you in the next video peace
