My technics headphones that I've been using for the past four years finally bit the dust. I have to buy some new ones fairly quickly. Shure makes great studio headphones so I am inclined to give their new DJ model (SRH750DJ) a try. The problem is that you can't try these things before you buy them and there are not many reviews online. Anyone here given them a try?

I have no idea how good they are in reality, but they look like they'd snap/break rather easily, like the Pioneer HDJ-1000.

Yes. I was trying a few different kinds in one of the DJ stores in the city last w/end. The Shure headphones were very comfortable and had a great sound but I'm really not sure on the durability, they didn't seem flimsy or like they would easily break to me. I'm still however gonna go with another pair of HD-25's as they're my headphones of choice.
