Opinions have been voiced that the headphones are too heavy on bass, something Wood disagrees with. The Beats brand, while a popular source of headphones for consumers, has had its quality previously questioned with opinions shared that the headphones are not priced accordingly. This didn't halt Apple entering into a deal to purchase Beats Electronics (http://www.imore.com/apple-acquires-beats-3-billion) for $3 billion.</p> <!--break--> <p>"I've certainly heard that as an opinion on the headphone, I disagree," Wood told BBC News. "We didn't go to build a reference headphone, something you build in the studio that is really a technical tool to hear when you are recording." Wood recently hosted a Q&amp;A in London, but avoided questions including whether or not Apple plans to alter ports on company products to be compatible with only Beats by Dre headphones. EU regulators are to make a decision (http://www.imore.com/eu-regulators-make-decision-apples-beats-acquisition-july-30) on the Apple acquisition of Beats Electronics by July 30.</p> <p>Check out the BBC report in full for more quotes and details.</p> <p>Source: BBC (http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/28287697)</p> </div></div></div><div id="comment-wrapper-nid-25737"></div><img width='1' height='1' src='http://tipb.com.feedsportal.com/c/33998/f/616881/s/3c83404c/sc/15/mf.gif' border='0'/><br clear='all'/>
