Very Excellent, Christopher Lawrence uses them and so does Ferry Corsten. A few of my friend's use them in clubs as well, (our club capacity is 2500, and Christopher Lawrence and Ferry Corsten have both played there). HDJ1000, I wouldn't trade my pair for anything else on the market.

i have both the v6s and the HDJ1000's and i personally like the v6s way better. The v6s give out very clean sound and its very accurate as well. The hdj1000's are a bit bassy and it drowns out some of the detail of the song. But i still like it. I think for bedroom djs, the v6s are the way to go.. but pvd uses them in clubs also so go fig. The hdj's are good in a club environment cuz they have good isolation. And as a dj headphone i think they're very good. Much better than the widely used v700 which i find heavy and poor sounding.

K, so lets say your a cheap Canadian and have under $100 to spend on a headset, what would you get?

Originally posted by DJ Tranz I would have to disagree with you on that. Let me ask you this, why would World's Top DJs, making $5,000.00 to $50,000.00 USD per set use as called by you cheap, low quality headphones??? Although this is JMO, Professional DJs, sales numbers, and lots of my friends prooved to me that I bought the best DJ headphones on the market.

Just because they're popular and big names use them, it doesn't make them the best headphones on the market (not saying they aren't, i haven't tried them out so i cant' say first hand)

As someone mentioned, lots of big name djs are PAID to use certain equipment, so its not a real good argument, and neither are sales numbers (which goes to show that companies sponsering djs to use certain equipment in fact does improve sales)

just look at the djm600...by far not the best mixer in its price range, but its the industry standard (though that's changing imho)

It appears as if the V6's are the best headphone for a bedroom DJ. I have yet to try them out, but I think I'll look into them before dropping $150 on a pair of Pioneers which remind me too much of the Sony 700's. =\

ive just got the pioneers and i love em... ive been wearing em almost all the time since they popped in with the mail.... got em here: www.audiocubes.com for 129$

nice! I'm thinking about getting one. $129, that's the best price I've seen thus far. How is the price on shipping and how long did it take to arrive after you paid?

This comment is possibly the most laughable ever.

The fact that judge jules is loosing all respect over here faster than a 50 year old looses his fertility suggests that his opinion on the matter doesn't really count. Besides he uses the hd25 sp model and I can tell you they are shite.

Just because jules said so doesn't actually make it so.

Originally posted by DJ Nuclear pioneer's look like crap and sound like it too (the pair I demoed, anyhow...the pics you got look pretty nice, the one I listened was black), in my opinion...I personally like the V-6...v-700 and pioneers sound similar, big heavy midbasses...don't really really like it, personally.

Does it ever occur to you that if the headphones you sampled are all black and the pioneer 1000's are black and silver then they are different headphones entirly hence the reason for the poor dound quality you discovered.

The ones you sampled are the pioneer dj - 5000 headphones which are a good bit cheaper.

Also, colour is NOT an indicator of the headphones' sound quality! I've personally heard great-sounding headphones that are all black, and some shyte ones that are silver...

Incedently shit lips, Jules is still the best value for Money DJ in this country when you look at it in pound per bums in seats. Take nothing away from the guy he is far more succesful than 99% of the Djs from his generation and he is a major part the reason your into dance music because he was one of my biggest influences and being your big brother and also being the one who gave you a first taste of DJing Id say yours aswell

Ok maybe I was being a bit harsh, but the fact of the matter is he ain't as good as he used to be. I still prefer him to others such as boat corsten and dj pee-esto, but my comment was meant to point out the fact that because jules wears the 25 sp phones doesn't mean they are brilliant. cos lets face it you have used them and so have I and to tell the truth they are just annoying, what with the stupid swiveling ear piece and the fact the wire always curls up.

I got 23 year old Yamaha Hp-1 that used to belong to my dad
Let me tell you, they're the shit

The SONY MDR-V700 is chilling my ears. It's a great headphone. I don't had problems with it

How come that noone has mentioned the Sennheiser hd280 pro's? They can be THE cans when it comes to Djing.Although..from all those pics of the pioneer's..i want them too!! Even for a bit,to see if they're as good sounding as looking
And dont be that absorbed by the brands..check out the headphone thread,u who havent!
greetz

just wanted to say i bought some pioneers, i had the choice of the pioneers or technics 1210's and i have to admit the 1210s sound alot more true (if that makes any sense) the pioneer seems like they have a bit more boomy artificial bass (compared to the technics!) but that said i got these because there so damn comfy and you can really crank them! (the technics feel like clamps)
hehehe my 2c!
anyway
take care

hey im gonna sound like the bigges n00b of n00bs but whats the deal with the stereo/mono switch, ie. whats the advantage of having the phones on mono...

lol...this thread is turning out to be almost the same as the other Headphones thread.

A lot of the issues raised here, like Sennheiser HD-280, Sony V700Dj, have been COVERED and dealt with in the Headphones sticky thread above, so you can check it out for info etc.

And there is a LOT of information and great advice there.

I would def go with Sony over Technics. Technics squeeze the crap out of your ears after awhile.. and kill. Personally i use Sony 7506 which are awesome IMO. The mdr-v700's are nice but the still dont fit as good. Mdr-v600's are kosher.. bass is more prodominate i think more than the 7506 but the clarity is much better in the 7506. I also like the Sony 7505's the ear cups are smaller and fit tight around. The sound is good too. All in all i suggest you go and try out what works for you.. everyone said 700's but you know i dont like them as much as my 7506's ... its all about personal taste. to each is own!

Re: Headphones..

1200 technics all the way
