alright folks, I've got $140 cdn to shell out on some new cans. I need ones that are suitable for using for DJing as well as for listening to CDs.
This is the part in the thread where I plead for help.

DO NOT get the mdr-vCRAP series.. only good mdr is the v6...
which is an absolute steal for its price.. excellent sound reproduction, although the highs can be quite shrill. either that or get the sennheiser hd-280pro.. both are suitable for dj/listening..
want more info?

although the mdr-v500 lack in sound quality
they're alright for bedroom djing and are easily powered for listening to cds
but once you start playing out more often, you'll want to upgrade to a better set of cans |

sony = the l0se.
i had a pair of sony headphones, v somthings, and they broke after like 4 months. now, they're in my basment, taped together, and i only use them when my parents bitch at me to turn down the bass :( |

Anyway!
My mdr V7 are great and I had them for a while!
They are also very flexable!
I guess everyone has it's own opinion! |

again... for what i use them for they work just fine. they arnt the best by far. but they are loud enough, sound fine enough and were fairly priced.
i still dont get hoe people break headphones. onle one pair of mine ever broke. those cheap ass ones that came with my shockwave cd player that got stolen. i think they got sat on by somebody. |

Mpl4ever, please give the FULL model number of the headphones that you're using! Which 'MDR V7' are you talking about? The old MDR-V7 (which is a deluxe version of the OLD MDR-V6, which relatively kicks @$$), or the current MDR-V700DJ (which sounds unbalanced and murky, just like the rest of the MDR-VCRAP line)?
Oh, BTW, don't confuse the MDR-V6 with the newer MDR-V600. The MDR-V600 sounds artificially echo-ey, harsh, almost bass-less - and it sucks just as badly for the $$$ as the rest of the MDR-VCRAP series. |

I like them!
The sound is not unbalanced and murky at all!
Plus they are really flexible.
Anyway, I love them!
If they were that ty, they would be a lot of big DJ using them!!!
