best dj headphones for under 100$?
best dj headphones for under 100$? Posted on: 12.04.2013 by Carlyn Greeson hey i'm looking for the best pair of dj headphones i can get for under 100$. I'd like some good sound isolation so that I can protect my ears when volumes from the master get relatively high. Portability is always a plus and durability is nice too any suggestions? | |

I started out that way, and almost every time im in a booth with a dj monitor, i shut that off or turn it facing out to the dancefloor i realized i do much better without it |

Alphonso Deitchman 13.04.2013 | Isolation is how well they keep outside noise out. Ear protection relies on keeping outside noise out. So headphones with good isolation will protect your ears well. |

Lanelle Panarella 12.04.2013 | Numark Red Waves are pretty legit for the price $69-$89... |
Alphonso Deitchman 12.04.2013 | You can't have isolation with 1 ear off. |

If the black layer over the foam breaks down or the foam starts to come off, the replacement is free. They just sent you the parts. awesome. I used them for gigs for 9 years, and beat the HELL out of them. Also, my fav part is when they say "Around the ear" they mean it There is nothing touching your ear at all when wearing them The one thing that drove me to them is all the others said same thing but you can feel them pressing against the earlobe or cartilage. These dont |
