I disagree with anyone who says "some people can't hear the difference" in sound quality. I guarantee that anyone who puts on a pair of $15 sony over the ear headphones from walmart can tell that they don't sound as good as a pair of $200 Sennheiser's. There is absolutely no debate there.
The debate is whether or not the difference is worth spending the $185. Some people think it isn't, some think it is, and some can't even bear to put the sony's on.
Yes, there is some debate among certain headphones, many people think $35 JVC HARX700's sound as good as $75 AD700's, and others disagree. But to say that you can't tell a difference between the $5 OEM bin at microcenter and a pair of nice headphones is not a matter of opinion, it's just clinging on to your view that the nicer pair isn't worth the money.
I can understand why people feel like it isn't worth the money. Computer stuff is expensive, and many would prefer to buy a better gpu/cpu/ram/etc than to drop (what can be big) money on headphones. That being said, don't say that there isn't a sound difference because you don't think that the price difference is worth it. When you do, you are wrong.
well said
