Headphone Question
View this Thread in Original format
Liquid Fusion
I know i should have posted this in the headphone section, but no one ever answers me, so if I get flamed, I get flamed. Anyway, what do you all think about:

Beyerdynamic DT250 OHM's

MoS DJ1001's

Technics RP1210

I heard these are all pretty good, but I have really been looking at the MoS 1001's. I can't find them anywhere. Does anyone know where I can find them?

The MoS 1001's are discontinued. The current model is 1003, which is available here.

I would recommend the technics one though. Great sound quality and ultra durable. (In my experience.)

Beyerdynamics are for studio environment, they sound good, but absolutly not suited for Djing. Any product with a ministry of sound is such a toy, they can get owned by Playskool anytime. The technics are left, yet I would recommend other cans than that...

I've had my Technics for 6 years I think, best headphones I've owned.

Sennheiser HD280 pro

once you go circumaural, you don't go back ;)
It's also nice to not damage your hearing as badly.

Pioneer HDJ-1000 :D really good sound, but doesn't feel that sturdy.

id say those are all better choices than the ones you first listed.
also worth checking are the sony mdr-7506's. almost the same as the v6's.
i wouldn't recommend the hd280pro's because they crack, other than that they're brilliant (altho they look quite bad on your head if that's something you care about). also i've heard that the pioneer hdj-1000's crack and i think Freak has broken like 5 pairs of those. also if someone's considering the sony mdr-v700, they crack too and have a horrible bassy sound.

You have a point:)

Sennheiser HD 25 are top
Skullcandy
Shure in ears ( matter of taste, but believe it or not, amazing stuff)

and I use AKG K 271s since I tried them ( more insulation, circumaural, Class A sound)

I confirm that Sony headphones sound muddy and inaccurate, and are easily subject to breakage. Same for Sennheisers[except the one I mentioned], the majority of their range is totally inaccurate and fragile, as cracks will appear after a short period of time on the head band.
