which should I go for

Sony's MDR500 or 600s?

due to overwhelming complaints about the mdr700 im skipping this one at the same time sticking with SONY. im looking for comfort and durability from the two of these

Neither... Look at the headphone post. Or Gluegun's signature.

I'm also looking to get those 500s.

why do you think they re better ?
I read in a thread that they were pretty sturdy compared to the 700s
can you aproove this ?.. cause i don'T feel like having the same probleme like everyone else at the swivel cups.

I don't need soemthing for clubs.. only home use and maybe a few parties... If i get to spin at a club... the equipment should be provided.

Don't like your chances there. Never seen a club provide headphones.

the 600s are for studio use...
the 500s are for dj use...
it says right on the box
any questions?

i love my 500s, they work great
i'm going to upgrade though once i start playing out more often

I'd personally go with SONY's MDR-V700s, but if you don't want them, then go for the new pioneer hdj-1000s! They rule! (though I haven't bought them yet, I've never ever been disappointed in pioneers sound or dj eq.

The entire Sony MDR-V### series is overpriced, and I would never pay over $60 for anything in the entire lineup. Look elsewhere for good values. Sony MDR-V6, for example, or Sennheiser HD280 Pro, or even, if you wanna lowball it, Sennheiser HD202 or HD212 Pro.
