Eva since hossie recommended the Pioneer HDJ1000 to me, am DEFO looking into them seriously, any thoughts ??

-e-

These are what I use. Better isolation than the Sonys, better sound, and more durable. What more can you ask for?

Re: I take back everything good I said about Sony Headphones

I saw somewhere that sony upgraded or improved the design on the joints just because of that issue.
Dont remember where though , but im pretty sure they've changed the design.
Im actually looking into technics or pioneers at the moment.
Pioneers seem pretty good.

I would stick with sony 3 years for headphones a little over $100 is pretty good.

Try technics or pioneer instead.

But none will give you sound quality like SONY("like no other")

Sony is shit. Everything they make is cheap. I hate them. Too many horror stories and I've shared them multiple times. Boycott sony.

They sound great but if you're a lean-on-the-shoulder style DJ then they're not all that comfortable as the ear cups don't swivel.

I have the sony 700 and I have not had any problems with them. Yet. I had other sony heads and broken them in a couple of months. These seem to be lasting as of right now. But only time will tell. I have not even had them a yr yet.

I use these. You do need to take care of the cord on the HDJ's they are really nice headphones but their cord can break easily.

Ive had mine for over a year now, still in good condition considering i Dj weekly.

Re: I take back everything good I said about Sony Headphones

i've had my v700 headphones for 3 or 4 years. 4 i think. never noticed the stress fractures till i saw this thread, & yes, mine have the same cracks!

don't know how long they've had the cracks.

sony-haters can bash them all they want, but you have to hear these things to believe how incredible they sound! and at a bit over $100.00 U.S. when i got them, after all this time i'd say that it was good money spent.

it is likely that the stress fractures that develop are a result of the design & the weird way the phones unfold. so far, sound quality has not been affected for me.

these are the only "serious" headphones i've owned, & i love them...
