Yes I know theres a headphone thread, and a search button, and I did use them.
Using them, I found lots of positive words about the isolation on the sen hd280's, and I was about to get a pair, but then I stumbled on this.

This person says they dont block out nearly as much sound as is advertised.
So which headphones offer the best isolation, while still being suitable for djing? |

| you allready know the answer, the sennheiser hd280. Another thing, the level of noise attenuation will vary depending on head/ear shapes. So don't listen to that guy. He sounds more like a idiot trying to be smart, hell, i've yet found a pair of headphones that works as well for the money, just like all revealing monitors, you need a good source for the best sound. |

| yeah that guy has some kind of retardation, the sound isolation is amazing, to the point where if i am wearing them, i cannot hear someone talking right next to me. |

Alright, well I guess I'll get them, and hope for the best. They are $148 here in canada...
I hear about the headband cracking, has anybody had this covered under the 2 year warratee, or do they blame it on abuse? |

| For me Hd-280's offered the best isolation, but I changed to another pair of phones because I had 5 hd-280's and in all of them the headband broke in my use :( |

Damn it, I'm really thinking of going for the stanton dj pro 2000's because they are so much cheaper $85 CAD while the hd280s are $148 CAD...Also I dont think they break as much.
I do realise the sound quality on them will be crap, but I just hope they have fair enough isolation. |

If you are looking for good phones then get the HD25 straight away. Their isolation is very good and the sound is nice and clear too. I have been using the same pair for over a year now (on a proffesional basis) and still have no issues with them.

I couldn't agree more. |

| I've been using the sennheiser hd280 silvers for about 6 months. They have great isolation. That's the direction I would point you in. |
