What are they doing technologically to differentiate their product? Back ache (talk) 06:09, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Try entering into the multiple discussions on http://www.avsforum.com/. WP is not the place to discuss such material. WP:FORUM Srobak (talk) 13:44, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

so there isn't any real technology behind the product? just mere marketing? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.202.3.170 (talk) 05:57, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

From HP's marketing, their Beats Audio equipped products have some technical (hardware) innovations, though it is unknown if these actually improve the audio. It is also unknown whether these innovations are part of the Beat Audio spec, or if they are HP's own addition to the their implementation of that spec. I haven't been able to find any actual 'spec' for Beats Audio, by the way, so I'm using this term rather presumptuously (it's possible that there isn't one and it's just marketing/business fluff). Notable hardware innovations from HP's Beats Audio page: "Features: - Redesigned headphone jack to reduce ground noise - Discrete amplifier for more power - Dedicated audio island to minimize fan noise interference." http://www.hp.com/united-states/campaigns/holiday-beats/all-products.html?jumpid=ex_r602_beatsbydre_may2012_beatsaudio

Rumors of Apple acquisition

A possible acquisition of Beats by Apple Inc. is being widely reported http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2014/05/08/apple-said-to-be-in-talks-to-buy-beats-for-3-2-billion/. Misplaced Pages is neither a crystal ball nor a newspaper, but I've edited the mention of this acquisition to show it as a rumor rather than deleting it outright -- others have tried simply deleting it and it keeps getting re-added as fact by other editors. I hope that this compromise edit will tide people over until the rumor is confirmed or denied. -Dayv (talk) 16:34, 9 May 2014 (UTC)

And of course that didn't work. People are still trying to edit the speculation into fact. -Dayv (talk) 16:41, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
Well, that Dr. Dre video seems to confirm that it is happening. ViperSnake151  Talk  17:15, 9 May 2014 (UTC)

This may have been based on counterfeit headphones. Hence I am removing this section of the article. http://www.core77.com/posts/38467/Uh-Oh-Beats-Teardown-Apparently-Used-Beats-Knockoffs Matt J 10:39, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
