Dude, we argue for discussion's sake, and because we disagree, and because we're bored, mostly.

It's kinda self-contained actually. In fact, I'm sure it's actually entertaining to some. And, anyways, if anyone asks about headphones, we can give them advice, and argue over what to tell them, which can be even more educational.

But, yea, SS and me are the kind of people who *always* reply if there is a new reply, even if neither of us has anything important to say.

And guess what? Even the best of the "big-name" DJs make dud mixes (e.g. those with somewhat mismatched beats) every now and then...

I'm using Sony MDR V500 and I think it's doing a fine job as my first pair. I really wish I could try on what other headphones would feel like on me. The thing is the Technics 1200 Headphones which can adjust to fir your ear(s) and head perfectly without you having to keep it pressed on your head and they look pretty comfy to me. Whenever I'm mixing on these headphones sometimes I press them against my ears and I couldn't hear with the other ear perfectly so I loosen it out a bit and then the beat starts to fall out of place. Then I'd have to quickly push them back up and I lost my track on twisting the knobs on the mixer and well .. everything just burns down. Then again.. I've only been mixing for a couple of months so I'd say I'll save up the rest of my complaining on the headphones and get back to my practice.

ps:- After all that was mentioned i love my pair of headphones anyway.

I love my v700s, U can get them at uk.yahoo.com shopping for £85 including P+P!

Um, Narcissus, that's one of those "DJ-features" I talk about the V6's having... you know, a tightly secure but comfortable fit for one-eared monitoring? And BKY2K, you can get the V6's for $50 USD off of Ebay, or $80 USD online... why would you pay so much more for something worse? These are the most versatile headphones on the PLANET...

i got a pair of V600 and they sound as good as 700 to me.
mhy friend has V700 and i don'tthe fact that they kind big...maybe i'm used to 600s???

DJ Teknique: Huh? I didn't like the V600 at all. There is almost NO bass whatsoever in those cans! The depressed upper-midrange, combined with the recessed bass and excessive echoing resonances within their large earcups (which BTW have way too much empty air space within), make you turn up the headphone volume WAY up just to hear any beats whatsoever. As a result, the V600 is actually one of the worst headphones to DJ with. DUH!

As for your assumption that the V700DJ's are bigger than the V600's, that's a big lie. The V600's are actually bulkier than the V700DJ's - and within those larger earpieces of the V600's, the drivers used in them are actually smaller in diameter than those used in the V700DJ's.

In short, if I am on a strict $100 budget for headphones to spin with, and I want a Sony, I definitely would have picked the MDR-7505 over the MDR-V600!

Shadyslim, can I have your promise only to slam a member of the MDR-VCRAPDJ line whenever someone actually MENTIONS them? As in, only slam them during a direct reply where someone actually SAYS something about them, or at least mentions their name? Please?

Gluegun, my most recent post in this thread is only in reply to the poster just before my latest post - he mentioned the V600, which he said were "as good as the V700".
