I don't have experience with the Technics, so I can't comment on those, though I have heard good things about them.

The v6's, on the other hand, I can talk about. All I'll say is that if you get those, you won't be disappointed. Though you might prefer the Technics - I'm not sure in your case.

Browse through the huge Headphones thread that's sticky, above, you'll find lots of useful information.

I would recommend you go with the Technics 1200a. I use the Sony MDR-7506.... Although it does work for djing (many headphones will), I still think its too flat for djing, and a bit bright when at loud volumes. I cant support having these too loud for too much time, cause the highs just hurt my ears. I never had that problem with the 700DJs.
The v6/mdr7506 are really studio headphones.

When I have to buy new headphones, I will go with the Technics 1200A

I have the Technics and they are absolutely awesome!! They can get a little warm on your ears but its bearable.

I used to own the Sony 700's and mine also broke

Seriously,,, get the new PIONEER HDJ 1000. They're a little bit expensive but I think they sound better than the technincs and the sony. Just my opinion though.

peace.

I've had my sony 700's for 2 years, the only thing I ever had a problem with is when some drunk asshole broke off the jack inside the mixer. So I bought a new pair, took out the new ones, put the old ones in the box...hehehe....and returned them and got my money back and a new set of headphones . But other than that I've never had a problem!

Am I the only person in the world that thinks Sennheiser rule the roost when it comes to headphones. I have yet to hear a set which can produce such clear tones and also stand up well at mega high volume.

Not a lot of people here have *tried* the Sennheiser HD25... they are quite expensive if you aren't in Europe.
