ill_spector Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 sehnheiser hd25's they cost a bit more, and look pretty plainbut everybody raves about them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjNikko Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 sennheiser anything, i have the HD 280's and LOVE them, always been a fan of sennheiser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomy Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Technics RP-DJ1200 is all i use. freaking good.cheaper option Shure SRH750DJ are pretty good for the pricego to your local dj store and have a listen to a few different ones though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBG Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I have my XD-53s cranked at about 2/3 volume for about 4hrs when I play, I pick them up, put them down, throw them around and they still go as hard as they did before. Any cans that can last w.e after w.e at clubs for 3+ more hrs at a time get my tick. Similar to why tomy likes his. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeatLeSS Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Hey Zeds, what happened to your HDJ-1000's? I'm curious, cos mine broke the other week! Clean snap right off the swivel (Right phone).Not sure whether it was my fault cos i was half tanked at the time, but i swear i just put them on like normal.. Not a fan of the weak frame atm, but love the quality. Little bit of Locktite and all is well again! Will ducktape the crap outta it to make sure it won't break again and add some character!

zedsx6 Posted June 18, 2010 Author Share Posted June 18, 2010 haha thats exactly what happened to mine, but i wasnt tanked...well i was on my way yeah not the biggest fan either, I reckon they should be stronger for the price...but i guess you cant have everything right? haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBG Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 for the same price the technics and A&H cans would not do that^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeatLeSS Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Zeds - can you get any photo's up? I might try giving the Pioneer rep a call - could be worth a shot as there is obviously something wrong with the build quality.CBG - Am looking at those XD53's spec wise, will give these a go next set of cans I buy i think.

digglebert Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Mine are cracked in the same spot also. I have both sides taped up just in case, quite disappointing, will probably be buying another brand of headphone next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tubby Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 amazing how many ppl break their hdj1000's on the swivels. I still have the model before that (SEDJ5000) and they've lasted 8 years with no issiues other than the foam wearing. i actually bouught 2 pairs at the same time, so won't be upgrading for a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djarmed Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 i have a few different pairs of headphones (dont ask me why) but i actually prefer the reloop ones. rhp10 i think they are. $190. i have ceramic mint ones....they look good and sound really good. and im only comparing to pioneers and sony's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjSTRiKE Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 My view on headphones is, dont spend over $100. you can get a good set for around there, and there normally durable and ready to get the shit wore out of them, spending more is just silly.

BeatLeSS Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Well, they snapped again, and instead of gluing them back i got locktite all up my arm hahaha. Now i need to buy new cans and a new watch! But will def be giving the XD-53's a go as per CBG's recommendation, spec wise a little better than the HDJ1000's, won't be buying pioneer cans again.
