Technics RP - DH1200 Headpones - help meh

I was looking for some input on that particular model. I am going to buy them but i was wondering if they had a good comfort, and good sound. Ive heard good things about the loudness, but what about their cushioning on the ear? Any help would be much appreciated.

When i first bought them they were tight as hell. they loosned a bit plus i'm used to them. The sound? AMAZING and powerful. I'm happy with them

Proud owner of these babies. Awesome sound quality, very durable. Have to get used to them though. May seem a little tight and clunky at first.

I own these headphones. I really like how they fit. I always had problems in the past with headphones falling off my head because I jump around a little when I play, but these have a nice firm fit to them, and they never fall off. As far as the sound, it could be better, but I have owned much worse sounding headphones.

Rock On,

Mike

I went from sony v700s to these. The difference in weight took a bit to get used to.

I love them for long sets.

The sound is awesome. I love them.

I really don't like these headphones, for the price of them you'd expect well better.

I played my first gig on sunday night there and I must say they cut out very little external noise. There too big and awkward as well. I prefer the older model by far.

I'd go back to the pioneers but there about as reliable as sunshine in scotland.

I really don't know what headphones to go for.

don't know about you, but mine cuts it out great.

nice TL

you playing there regularly or just a one off?

Posted by chesco on Jun-04-2005 08:29:

It was a one off for now - but they did say they might have me back.

Posted by kame_san0 on Jun-04-2005 08:35:

Ok, what about compared to Ultrasone DJ1 Pro

Im thinkin about getting these Ultrasone DJ1 Pro's, it seems like a good investment, and great quality, but i dont know anyone that tried them. What do you guys/gals think?
