You won't be disappointed. My only issue is during flat bench/chest days. The headset is a tad heavy and slide off my head. Everyone else I have zero complaints on. Love them!!

While the Beats looks and sound very nice there are better and just as good for less money.
Sorry for the late response. The controls are perfect. That has been my biggest complaint about my past bluetooth devices. You won't be disappointed!! I've really had everything under the sun. I listen to music washing my cars, mowing, gym..... Literally everything. I love them. Some say over priced, I guess I don't see it that way. To each his own.
I will be ordering a pair of white on red beats solo soon. Right how I have a pair of klipsch S4A's and they fall out my ears when running at the gym.
They aren't too big for me to wear to the gym.Why don't you buy the Monster iSports for the gym? They are in-ear and waterproof. I have the Beats Studio headphones but they are too huge to wear at the gym. The iSports never fall out of your ears and you can even put them in the washer machine. Amazon had em for half price during the holidays. I don't know if they are still on sale.
For the price, you can get better in ear headphones than the Beats. Beats are the new Bose in terms of better marketing than actual performance. Yes, Beats aren't terrible, but for the same price, you can get much better quality and at a lower price to match the same quality. I would suggest heading over to head-fi.org, they have a plethora of threads, articles on headphones.
I also can't stand the Beats audio in the DNA, all it is, is a very bad smiley EQ that boosts the bass and treble way, way too much. I guess it might be helpful if you are using $5 earbuds, but if you have decent $50+ or so headphones or IEMs, it totally ruins what you are listening to.
Edit: Amazon has the Klipsch x10 is on sale at the moment for $89, normally $150 and retail price is $300. Pretty decent reviews, and at $90 it's a stellar deal.
.....the sickest beats ever.
I was surprised to read that the folks over at dull Consumer Reports actually gave the Beats headphones high marks. They did suggest a cheaper Grado pair for those who are more concerned about quality than making a fashion statement, though.Sickest Beats ever is like saying the tallest midget. Not really setting the bar real high.
Beats is the offspring of Monster, and like Monster, is way over priced, over marketed, average quality stuff.

Getting burned by CR is pretty hilarious.
I use $15 skull candies, and they sound amazing with this phone. You boys are spending to much.
Sound quality is a very subjective thing, but there's not a $15 pair of headphones anywhere in this world that aren't going to sound like shit. You must have incredibly bad hearing, or hearing loss.
If so, feel blessed that you can't tell the difference. You wallet is the beneficiary. I've demoed many headphones and earbuds and never found any, even at around $50, that sounded like anything I could tolerate for more than 5 minutes. My $160 Sennheisers are what I would call 'barely adequate' for my tastes, but my budget won't let me spend what I need to get what sounds truly good.
