It all depends what you are looking for, from a pair of cans. I run a recording studio and we use AKG for production because that is what we used in college for audio class (they were required). We mostly work with R&B and Hip Hop acts, so while they are in the booth, I'll break out the Dre Beats, because they want to hear the beat thumping as they deliver their vocals.
However, I will tell you this: the 'studio' beats BLEED LIKE MAD. Great sound for bass-junkies and I wouldn't call them "accurate sound", but you may disturb others around you, with these on.
