| I have a pair of Technics RP-DJ1200 headphones that I've owned for like 7 or 8 years. I've put them through hell and the still work/sound amazing. I'm not sure how much they differ from the RP-DH1200 but from my experience Technics makes a decent quality headphone. |

| i've got a pair of rpdh-1200's. great pair of cans, excellent bass response, detachable cable, gold-plated connectors. i can't hate on the 7506's though. it's all up to personal preference. |

Had an RP 1200 for about 9 months. Put them through A LOT of abuse.
Pros:
-decent sound quality
-pretty sturdy
Cons:
-not good for long wear
-earcup not wide enough to drown out all outside noise
Mine is unfortunately broken now... Only one side works. Well other side works, but only if I shift them. Some wiring is loose somewhere. |

Don't know why but just lately my manners are failing me and I am becoming bitter and twisted!!
I sort of took a leaf out of Mikey Mike's book.....

I thought about getting a pair of these (to supplement Senn. HD280's), but haven't quite yet.
They look nice, probably fit better than my 280's (which stick out around the temple area and looks retarded), but I've read that they are somewhat heavy. As far as sound quality, they're supposed to be decent, and are a perfectly acceptable alternative for people who don't want to buy Sony (like me).
After reading varying accounts of headphones either lasting a really long time or breaking within 6 months, I've come to the conclusion that if it doesn't break within the first 6 months, it probably will last a while. Most warranties should last at least 6 months, right?
Best advice I can offer is still to try them out (and other models under consideration), if possible. |

i have a bigass head with big 'ol ears, and the earcups are plenty big to fit. however, they're kind of tight on my head so i agree, they're not that good for long wear (probably because of the head size though). they are excellent at cutting out outside noise though, imo. |

| Ive had mine for about 9 months now and they are still awesome, I like them a lot. They have yet to break down, although theyve only left my room a few times. |

I got a pair, and i must say they they are the best headphones i had up to date. They fit over my head perfectly.
The only thing is that they are a bit heavy, and friggin expensive.
I'd recommend them to anyone.
Just saw Sander use them not too long ago. |

^Expensive is Senn HD25. Around 300 bucks CDN.
If you want a headphone that is guaranteed to filter out outside noise, get a Stanton. Huge ear piece |
