i like the Sony 600's because your whole ear fits inside the headphone cup (blocks out allmost all outside noises)

I have been using the Sony MDR-700 for over a year and is been very good to me, I would recommand it.

i have sony vr500
they are made the same way as the 700 but the ear part is smaller
they are tough but the sound isnt very good when the volume is high

ill probably buy 700's in a while

I'm glad that someone else likes Ministry of Sound IXOS DJ1001's.. They are great

I can't mix on anything else anymore.. Every time I play at my club, if someone offers me Senn's or Sony's, I just decline and plug my own phones in - otherwise I can't get a perfect beatmatch.

I think that once you get used to them, you don't go back.

So does a "HeadWize/Head-Fi" friend of mine - and an avid Etymotic ER-4S lover at that! Only problem for him is that the earpads are a bit too shallow.

The V700's are the best

the only problem is they are not studio headphones they are dj ones, so sony does not cover if they blow or what not. th v600's are studio phones so they have full warranty coverage. plus 600's dont output soo much bass like the 700s so you get a clearer sound. (better accuracy for beatmatching)

but you can also turn teh base down when mixing with the 700s to get the desired effect.. your mixer should have a bass control hehe

i still love the 700s i dont like how the 600s look

lol

Nope, the V600's have absolutely NO redeeming qualities at all whatsoever. They are dull and flat - but in a BAD, lifeless, extremely inaccurate way. And worse, their warranty is even WORSE than the warranty coverage for the V700DJ's - 90 days (3 months) total, replacement only.

All in all, the V600's are one fucked-up pair of headphones that are WAY overpriced for what they deliver. In fact, they are NOT true studio monitor headphones; they are merely glorified $20 low-end mass-market closed headphones.

i also find my V700's sound best when connected to a high current audio source. weaker devices dont drive them worth a damn... anything portable, forget it...

I'm glad my mixer has a good headphone amp built in..

Then why do portable audio makers rate their portables for extremely low-impedance (16-ohm) headphones, when even the 24-ohm, extremely-high-efficiency V700DJ's need lots of current just to deliver the slammin' bass that those DJ 'phones are notorious for?

In my experience, portables sound best with headphones that are rated between 32 and 80 ohms.

Nrg2Nfinit,

If you want a TRUE studio-monitor Sony, don't get the V600's. Get the 7506's instead.

HEhe i htink ill just stick to my 700s untill something bad happens

knock on wood that nothing does tho
