need advice - stantondj pro 2000 or 3000

hey guys
i need advice on the following;

im buying a new headphone asap (within 1 or 2 weeks), and i noticed the stanton dj pro 2000. iyt has very good reviews and a good price/quality ratio. so i wanted to buy that 1. then i noticed the stanton dj pro 3000. its only 25 euro's more expensive. that aint much, i know, but im a student. im having a gig in 2 months and i already have to 'save' loads of money in order to buy some vinyls

my question; is the dj pro 3000 worth spending 25 euro extra on, relative to the dj pro 2000?
is there a difference which makes it worth spending 25 euro's more?what are the benefits?

and what are your experiences with a dj pro 2000?

I use the 2000 model, and I enjoy them very much.

I have only one complaint: they can sometimes seem a little on the heavy side. Of course I went from the very, very basic Numark HF125 to the Stantons, and that's not exactly comparing apples to apples.

I bedroom DJ only, so I can't tell you how well they perform in a club setting. I can only tell you have I have had zero quality issues with mine in nearly a year's time. I feel like my money was well spent.

there too expensive for me (if i had cash, i would've taken the V900's or MDR7509's)

Solid set of cans.

Big ear piece, completely blocks out outside sound. Use them to spin a few hrs before and didn't notice any discomfort.

Drawback is sound quality is a bit iffy compared to others, but IMO worth a invest.

You could also as Tiesto as he seems to be fond of Stantons for cans

How much are the 2000s? They are so ugly At least the V506 looks old school.


How much are they in Holland? They only cost 100 bones in the USA.

what are the V506's? never heard of them. i do know the V500's, V600's, V700's, V900's, MDR7506's and the MDR 7509's

the Stanton DJ Pro 2000 costs here some approx. 75 euro's

oops, I meant the MDR7506...

how much are they for u? if its only 15-20 euros more, id say go for it over the 2000s...

the dj pro 2000 costs aprrox 75 euro, the dj pro 3000 approx 100 euro's ....

the MDR7506's are out of my league (at this moment) they cost some 150-200 euro i think. the MDR7509's are even more expensive (250 euro+)
and lets not talk about the V900's ... she's a beauty, but soooo expensive

7506 FTW

thank you .. but believe me. in my case, it simply aint an option. if i were to hahve a job (which i prolly have in 1 or 2 months), it'll become possible eventually.

i need advice on the Stanton's

in that case, buy the cheapest thing that will hold you over till you can save for some proper cans.

Again, if you are dead set on getting Stanton's, I can tell you that mine are great performers for the money. I've had no issues whatsoever during a year's use.

I stress again: I have never used them in a club. I have only one other sample to compare them to.

I really wish I could be more help, but we're talking about man-made/electronic stuff. I could use my 2000s for 20 years with no hiccups, and the next guy could buy a pair that broke in 2 weeks. You just really never know.

I have the 2000's, actually the first pair I had cracked (on the headband). I sent them to Stanton under warranty, and after a quick 3 months they sent me a replacement

The new ones seem a little nicer, though I now just keep them as backups (as I had to buy some new cans when the first ones broke).

I will say they sound decent, the highs are very crisp. They lack a bit on the low end compared to my Sony's, however.
