Been looking at the Ultrasone DJ1 and the DJ1 Pro. Anyone have any first hand experience with these? Can't seem to find any stores here that physically have them so I can't try them out in person. Good for loud clubs? Is the pro worth the extra $50 or so? I'm used to using the Sony 700s and the Pioneer 1000s.

Also, anyone know if these are in the "recommended" list in the manual for Xone 92s/62s?

Thanks.

I just posted something similar in another thread.

In case you missed it, here you go:

I own a Xone:92 as well, and recently bought some DJ-1 Pros. They are fantastic, sound great, and are comfortable. They are a bit big, and are a bit unwieldy during one-ear monitoring.

I recently tried out some DJ-1s, and I like the fit and comfort much better. The sound isn't quite as good, but it is still excellent. And they're a good bit less expensive.

If I could do it again, I would go for the DJ-1s. I am completely happy with the Pros, though.

Cheers, and good luck with your decision. Either way, you can't go wrong.

Ultrasone are good.. one of the few that make swivelling headphones which don't crack at the hinges like the sony v700s, pioneer hdj1000s, and the stanton s3000's..

I agree with everything stated above. I find the DJ1's to be a bit more comfortable, but the sound on the DJ1 PRO is fantastic!

Still, the comfort issue is not huge, and I'm still getting used to my PRO's

Thanks guys...will be picking up some DJ1s soon...sound like they are better for me since I do a lot of one ear monitoring/mixing
