What headphones should DJTT carry?
Posted on: 04.08.2010 by Jodi Lacerra
Hey guys, a while back we polled facebook and twitter regarding which DJ headphones people would most like to see us carry. Based on the responses we received, the top choice was Sennheiser (HD-25) and the next closest was Pioneer (HDJ-1000/2000).

We had to put off our headphone exploration for a bit due to Midi Fighter production but now things have mellowed out a bit and we are looking into headphones again.

Take the poll and if you vote "other" please reply to this thread with what the other would be. We are going to take a close look at the votes so your input is greatly appreciated.

They are only $200 in America and if you order them before august 10th they are only $170 with free shipping.

I always assumed people were referring to the $200 pair when recommending headphones.
Potentially both

Take the HD 25s a bit further and carry these. I have a pair and I LOVE them. They sound amazing plus they look badass

The Sony MDR-7506 are my favs. I have been using them for years. I just found them on [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Sony-MDR7506-Professional-Diaphragm-Headphone/dp/B000AJIF4E/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1281102283&sr =8-1"]Amazon [/ame]for only $84 new.

Would you believe that my first ever pair of headphones, in 1988, was a RadioShack brand. It was wildly popular among our local DJs because the ear cans swiveled, it had a coiled cord, and they were loud. After those were no longer available and mine finally died, I tried a few other pair before finally settling on the Sonys.

man those sennheisers are pretty brutal looking, They may have amazing sound but holly crap they are uneasy on the eyes...

As much as many of you despise the Sony MDR-V700s I have to say they are really good bang for buck, and apparently they're fairly easy to do a customized paint job, so maybe DJTech could have custome DJTech headphones?!

but if I had to choose between the two options, I would go with the Pios.

The HD 25-1 IIs. The SPs aren't worth carrying.

Also, you can usually find them at various places for 150$, not sure if DJTT can sell them at that price though.

Sony MDR-600s if you want to carry a $100 Pair

http://www.guitarcenter.com/Sony-MDR...80-i1126814.gc

I say this because they do not have the crappy construction the 700s have.

a friend has had his pair for some 6-7 YEARS and they are jsut starting to loose sound quality.

I have them myself and the construction is great, but if u are going to jam out place them around ur neck

ultrazone DJ1 Pro, sound is way better than pioneer HD-2k's and they isolate better than anything!
I would have taken the Sennheiser HD-25-1/SP II but they r uncomfy on my ears, so I cant wear them 4 long, but they would be my second pick.

Ultrasone DJ1s are also a great choice

For me and my big head, I get a headache from wearing the Sennheisers too long.

Voted the Pioneer HDJ-2000, sound is really great, they fit awesomely around my head, and they have some of the best buildquality I have seen so far.

Thing is, I somehow would find it really cool if DJTT would go retro on the old Technics headset!

Hd 25 iis are my top choice. They are amazing in every way, and I doubt I will ever buy any other headphone besides them.

sennies hd25 for sure - i have had mine for years and years and they showed no sign of degradation whatsoever

If your only going to carry one I believe the HD25's are the most popular most recommended cans out there. If your going to carry more than one maybe look at a $99 set like the HD280's, $150 set like the HDJ100's, and a $199 set like the HD25's.

You should carry Sony MDR-SA5000's.... ha, go with the Sennheiser's.
As much as i love my 5000's, they are unrealistic for most djs. As most people don't want to carry around $500 headphones. And most dj's prefer more sound isolation. I received mine as a gift from this crazy girl, and if that wouldn't have happened i would still have my HD25's. Just please don't carry the Sony MDR-V700's, I'm tired of seeing so many dj's using these horrible headphones.
