Sony MDR-V700DJ Headphones

People should know that the cord does not attach, it is firmly stuck in the left earpiece, Sony's got their *&$%ing copy wrong and I bought a product on mis-advertised terms. Grr. Otherwise phones are great.

These have been my main headphones for years. I've used them for DJing, listening to music, video chatting, phone calls, everything. The sound quality is OK. The problem is they are _extremely_ uncomfortable. After maybe 20 minutes of work, your ears and the top of your head will hurt. You have to keep shifting them around to make them more comfortable. The top band is heavy and hard. The construction on these isn't amazing either. They are pretty creaky. And with all that, they are way overpriced. I haven't tried any other DJ headphones. The only reason I was using these for so long is because I bought them and figured I would just use them. Recently I decided that enough was enough and I needed something more comfortable. I went to the electronics store and picked something that looked comfortable and was affordable. I ended up with the Panasonic RP-HT260 Monitor Headphones, for less than $30-- and less than $20 here on Amazon. They are extremely comfortable, ... Read more

I'm not a DJ, but I DO LOVE music! These headphones make everything sound better! Sounds that I've never heard in songs are apparent with these! They are extremely comfortable, and that says a lot because I have a small head and it's been difficult to find headphones that I like. Highly recommended!

I bought these headphones for there great specs which they live up to. I listen primarily to classical music, but these are good for Rock and Pop as well. The bass is big, deep, and roomy. Your amplifier doesn't need much power to drive these and you can drive them to deafening loudness levels with no distortion. Even with the remarkable bass there is excellent imaging in the midrange and treble. The bass doesn't overpower the rest of the frequency range. Right now I am on the fence as which I would recommend: these Sony 700's or the Sony 7506's. The 7506's just seem a tad more accurate. If you are into Rock or Pop more and like beefier bass then I would opt for the 700's. I have no long term use with either. So I will defer to others as far as long term durability.

Forget what you have read, these are the best dj headphones in the market (I should know, i'm a dj). i've had the same pair for two years straight. i'm guessing that the people who say they're flimsy doesn't take care of them. now for the review: they are very comfortable, they're loud (just the way i like it) because of their design, you don't hear the ambient noise at all (love that). if you're a dj, the single cup function is great. now the money maker:the bass, you just don't hear the bass, you feel it, they actually vibrate when the bass kicks in. in my opinion, these are the best headphones EVER!!!
