Sony MDR-7506 FTW.

I have also heard good things about the technics, but I cannot comment personally.

Jarv

the newer silver ones i like and i'll probably buy a set to have as a backup pair

the older black ones are alright, i know a few djs who swear by them
never really liked the fit and the sound left a little to be desired

mdr-7506 FTW!!

I had mine right next to me when I saw the thread. I love mine. Never had any problems with them. I have had them over 1 year now, no cracks and still sound awesome. The cool thing about these headphones as far as how well they are built is I can't even count the number of times I have fell asleep with these things on. A couple times I woke up in the middle of the night thinking I may have broke them cause I was laying on top of them. But they don't even have one little crack in them. Amazing!! But, I heard alot of good things about the Sony MDR-7506 headphones, so I would look at the reveiws on those before I made a purchase. I actully asked for those for christmas from the family because there were such great reveiws on them. And they are ALOT cheaper than the TECH's too.



Rock On,

Mike

The MDR-7506 are friggin hideous though.

I own a pair of DJ-1210 and DH1200.

I absolutely love both pairs, but the DH1200s are my favorite. They are solid, built to last and have impeccable Bass response without drowning out the highs. I have had mine 12 months now and the tension in the headphones has remained as they were day 1.

The DJ1210s are lightweight, and a little too lightweight for me, but great for using while at work 9-5. I love the swivel on these as well.

sorry to break the bad news (no pun intended)

but they break. saw 2 seperate pairs from 2 seperate users snap. one of them actually snapped during its first gig out, a week from being bought. the other lasted 6 months.

I wanna know what they really used their headphones for :P

Hardstyle!

I've had the 1210's for a good four or five years now - and I love them to pieces - and they AREN'T in pieces!

Well, I did sit on the headphone jack when it was plugged in sideways on a plane, which meant a bit of fiddly re-soldering, but now snapping//poppping/blowing etc.

I got them right after I had the Sony 700's, as I didn't like how mushy the bass sounded in them. Sure, the 700 has loud bass, but it takes over everything else.

So, I tried the 1210's, and fell in love. Which isn't that easy when it's just a pair of cans we're talking about!

But, they sound great, sit comfortably on my head for hour, and don't give you that bed-head look when you're done with them.

Until someone convinves me otherwise, I'll probably use these for the rest of my DJing 'career'.

this isn't about the old durable RPDJs, rather the new shiny RPDHs. and i seen 2 of 'em break.

i am a loyal fan of my Sony MDR-V7506s. great for spinning and producing. another safe bet is the Sennheiser HD25, which i don't like cuz i crank 'em up whenever i use them and i want to keep my hearing.
