Default Headphones?

What headphones do you like? I've had the same Sony "Silvers" (MDR-V700) for about 7 years. Hard to believe they've lasted this long (a little gaffer tape goes a long way.)

I may upgrade one day to the Pioneer HDJ-1000 or Sony MDR-7509HD one day...we'll see.

I don't DJ so mine won't wear out as fast as yours, but I have the same ones as you Sony MDR-V700 for about 4 years now in a great condition and not looking to upgrade anytime soon.

I started with the Sony"s however switched over to the sennheiser hd25's and never looked back. They sound great and are so much smaller and lighter. After you've used the hd25's for a bit and then try on sony's you'll know what im talking about..

Technics RP-DJ1210. Still going strong after at least 5 years!! A lot of dj's use them. I don't think i'd use any others. Seinnheiser are too small for my liking and the sony's are too big!

Ive had the sony's, technics, and pioneers. Right now I have the Allen& Heath and they are my favorite out of the four.

My favourite headphone is HD-25 (600 ohms). I do not remember since when i use it, but they are many many years. The sound is very good and it´s very hard too . And U can buy all pieces separately!!!

senns hd 25's are the daddy's. Used in Djing and TV commentary worldwide because they are so good at blocking out surrounding noise - essential for monitoring, they're light,very robust (all parts are replaceable) and no other DJ headphone sounds as crisp and punchy.
If you want proper headphones get these, if you want headphones that are silver and flashy...get these and spray paint them

Use pioneer HDJ-1000 & Sony MDR-v700. I've heard folk complain about their Pio's breaking etc, personally never had a prob with them, they have have seen some use too. I've also used the Senn HD 25 which i would recommend, well built, great sounding cans.

This is nearly EXACTLY what i was talking about on the Axwell Forums. I currently ownt he v700's but i broke them and they're being held together with Duct tape. The HDJ-1000's are the new baby's im after but they hard to get. Or Denon DN-HP1000 are WICKED. DN-HP1000
