Go Grado, I got some sr80i for xmas about £100 but for 150 you could probably get the next model up their awesome. Not sure if they woul be suitable for djing thought

pioneer hdj1000 are the dogs, 18 months and still going strong*





*although held together with gaffa tape at the pivots

Grado rock!

 

[Reyes]

Sennheiser, Sony or pioneer.

 

[Ian]

Grado just wouldn't work for DJing. Sennheiser as above I'd say.

was looking at the hdj1000 but ive gone for the shure. So many good reviews and my SE210s are awesome...cheers

Sennheiser HD280 pro's. Great sound quality across the range and you can wear them for HOURS unlike my old HDJ1000's which started to hurt the outside of my ear lobes after an hour or so.

Pretty cheap as well...


//edit - missed the boat. Nice purchase tho.

Ahh my bad missed the DJing bit, aye grado won't be the best for you, love them for home listening though...

 

[David]

meh grado.

Get beyerdynamics, dt770s are good but the higher models are obviously better, make sure to amp them where applicable.

ive just bought some sennheiser IE8's, £180 so not cheap but they sound absolutely unreal!!

 

[KDF]

save up a bit more and get yourself some Shure's ~£450 .. they rock my world

I used to have a set of Pioneer HDJ-100, they were awesome when i DJ'ing. The broke after about 4yrs, so i decided to get the sennheiser IE8'S and as said above, there unreal!! wouldn't recommend them for DJ'ing tho. But i would recommend the Pioneers.

Beyer Dynamics used to do some awesome DJ headphones, however Sennheiser are far better for spares (leads etc)
