 Awesome headphonesJan 30, 2010
After reading the reviews of other DJs on Amazon and asking around. I decided to try them for myself. So far I love them. The sound quality is GREAT. I don't have to turn up the volume to loud to hear the music. This is actually my second pair of headphones since the last ones I had lasted me for about 6 yrs. So a word of advice to other djs take care of your equipment and it will take care of you. Although most shows I do a wedding receptions with a ocasional highschool/middleschool function thrown in. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who is starting out, or has been in the busniess for quite sometime.
 incredibly loud, bassy, and rich sounding.Jan 07, 2010
I had these for 1 year until they got stolen, but up to that point these headphones were sensational.
the Bass is strong and it can make your head shake if your not careful.
Sound is crips, deep bass, clear trebbles.. doesnt cancel noise very well, but if you have a good mixer and cue monitor you can set it to hear exactly what you need to and these headphones will deliver the sound well.
there's no reason to give these any less then 5 stars I miss having these. I use the HDJ-800's now but the 1000's are excellent.
Great headphonesSep 27, 2009
Pros:
Sound - Very good quality sound, especially clear, crisp bass. Work well for electronic dance music.
User experience - wide range of possible positions of each head phone, useful for various DJ requirements, folds up small for ease of transport and storage.
Look - modern, professional
Cons:
Comfort for long periods - after a couple of hours ears felt a bit sore from being firmly held by head phones. This could improve with time as head phone frame softens.
Durability - no issues short-term - but a friend with the same head phones found that the plastic joint just above the head phone, just below the letter R or L, broke after some time. This issue has also been reported elsewhere on internet.
BEWARE: Counterfeits are out there!Jul 10, 2009
Yes, the counterfeits have arrived on Amazon. Anything under $120 is REALLY suspicious. Beware, I had to return mine to the seller and get a full refund. Gladly, the refund process went pretty smoothly but if you expect a lot from these headphones, you'd be really disappointed with the counterfeit; it's a piece of expensive garbage, a toy. Fortunately, I got my hands on a real set of HDJ-1000's and they're absolutely great (although, the construction is poor and is made of cheap materials). Really crisp sound and clearer compared to the Sony MDR-V700's. I've been a great fan of the MDR-V700's but they are slightly muddy on the low end now that I've had the HDJ-1000 experience and think otherwise. They're both great headphones, nonetheless. If you want a tight and crisp sound, go for the HDJ-1000's even though they are a bit pricey. If you enjoy your music with overflowing bass and umph, the MDR-V700's are fantastic for that.
Great Headset!Jul 04, 2009
This headset is so great, I wanted to do a video review... which I will, real soon and will post it on the youtube under the name username.
Ok, on with the review:
Build Quality: (9/10)
These are great quality headphones! The only problem I have is that the ear part twists and locks, and it feels like it can break easily, but it doesn't, when I use it. Not only does it look nice, it is nice.
Audio Quality: (9/10)
I almost want to give it a 10 out of 10, but it does have some flaws. When I have my earphones on, I can't hear anything going on around me, which is good and bad, depending on the situation. It's not that. The thing that is bad is the audio leakage. What I hear, other people hear it, too. Other than that, the bass and treble and everything in between is great! Bass is bumping! Voice is clear! I can even hear the acoustic guitar struming, which I never heard before. It has that squeak sound. Anyways, great new experience!
Comfort: (7/10)
It goes around the head nice, but it does get annoying, but you do get used to it, and it does slip off your head easily. These are both good and bad depending on the situation, but bad for the most part. Other than that, it fits comfortable around the ears.
Overall: (9/10)
This is a solid product. Great sound. Great sound quality. Great product. It's just great. I never had any problems. I did read some issues on here, but I never ran into them. I'm not rough with my item. I don't slam them on my ears nor do I drag or pull them off abruptly. They're headphones, any headphone will break if you abuse them. If you treat them as they are, they will last and will be nice to you, too.
I totally love these and you should definitely give them a try. If you are a mid-level audiophile, they're definitely for you. If you want high end audio, give them a try. They're still great!
Extra: I have been using these headphones for 3 weeks in a row with all my songs that takes advantage of bass and treble and vocals. I listened to online radio stream. I listen to youtube audio. I did as much as I can and used them with every type of genre of music and these things performed well. I really wanted to test them out before I did a review. I didn't want to write with my first impressions. These are expensive headphones and if you buy them, you SHOULD know how they fair. They fair well, quit well. I would definitely recommend them.
