i use teh v500s...
i actually find them not too shabby
they dont' isolate that well granted... i know from experience, had to crank em up when playing at a club
but for just spinning at home, i find they are great
i really don't give a shit about bass response anymore, cause i mix using the high end, and these do the job fine
once i start playing out more i'm going to have to get a set of headphones that isolate better

i'd really recommand the HD280's then, man i wear those on my head all day long... great sound quality when listening to some music while doing hw. for DJ'ing the isolate so well its not even funny. my roomate always sneaks up behind me and touches me, i jump a mile high cause i didnt even hear him come in. also i've missed phone calls cause the cans isolated so well, and my phone is only 5 ft away! only draw back is the bass gets a little weak in a loud club environment, and its true... but since you DJ with the highs as i've gotten acustumed too, they can really kick some ass.

anyways back to the topic - crap cans! well these arent DJ's headphones but the first ever ones i used were philips talk abuot some shitty headphones!

That's right. If you beatmatch with the upper mids/lower highs (and not just the bass), then it's well worth the extra $10 to $20 over those craptastic Sony V500's. The chain musical-instrument/pro-audio stores tend to charge $89.99 or $99.99 for the HD280's, but charge the FULL MSRP ($79.99) for those V500's!! You can do WAY better that those V500's for a few $$$ more!
