Monster DNA Pro

Are the Monster DNA Pro the headphones for you?

Monster's DNA on-ear headphones offer a fun, customizable frame and big, booming audio you can share with a friend.

The powerful Monster DNA Pro 2.0 delivers deep bass with enough high frequency presence to keep things balanced, but similar-sounding headphones can be found for less money.

These passive noise-canceling headphones from Monster pair the brand's booming sound with a fresh design that works best for smaller ears.

One may expect Monster’s flagship over-ear headphone to follow in the footsteps of Beats by Dre, but the DNA Pro is a different beast altogether. Its tuning focuses on clarity and resolution, and the resulting sound signature is brighter than I had anticipated.

I am increasingly appreciating a good pair of headphones more and more and these are nice. Read on ahead for the Monster DNA Pro 2.0 Headphones review.
