New headphones

Last night the hinges on my Sony MDR-V700 broke, so I'll guess I have to buy a new pair. I'm thinking about the Pioneer HDJ1000, but does anyone know where I can get these cheap? Preferably in a US internet store.

By the way... I assume that these headphones don't have the same design flaw that the MDR-V700 has?

Since you are in Europe, why not get something from a local company that's well respected, like Sennheiser?

yeah i second that, i have Sennheiser HD-280s. There great for listening too as well to mixing, not pricey at all with a 2 year factory warranty

yup go w/ sennheiser. IMO the hd-280 sound a little more clearer and seem to have a better image than the hdj.

I used to use the Sonys but wouldn't swap anything for my Sennheiser HD25.
