Pioneer HDJ-1000 Dj Headphones

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.

Estos audífonos producen un excelente sonido tanto para los agudos como para los bajos, llegan a alcanzar gran volumen, la verdad son de lo mejor que he escuchado.Para mi tienen solo dos defectos, el primero y gran defecto es su calidad, para ser unos audífonos de este precio sus materiales deberían ser más fuertes y duraderos... el mismo día que me llegaron los use por varias horas y por estar colocándomelos y quitándomelos en varias oportunidades el material de los ejes se sintió y se deformo (el plástico utilizado es de pésima calidad) El segundo gran defecto es que al poco tiempo de tenerlos puestos te comienza a doler la zona donde se apoyan en las orejas (no son cómodos si superas los 10 minutos puestos y luego de unos 20 minutos el dolor hace que uno constantemente se los mueva de posición o de ángulo para poder sobrellevar el dolor que producen) aprietan demasiado en el borde de las orejas.

Buyer beware. These were advertised at an "Open Box" for $59.00 and they ended up being fake. I had them authenticated or deemed conterfeit by Pioneer themselves. Eveidently, any HDJ1000 under $130 will likely be fake. I got taken since I thought it would be possible as an open box. Vendor no longer exsists, but I suspect they are still around Amazon under a different name selling them for $70.00. Look for smaller earcup, black hinges and a thinner headband than you see in the picture.

These headphones are the best I have ever had. I use them for DJ work and they are great.The padding around the cups is soft leather and does not hurt or become uncomfortable after extended use. Same goes doe the headband. I've worn these for 5-6 sessions with no discomfort at all.The sound out of these is well balanced and unlike other headphones in the range there is very little bleed from the base. They are not booming with bass which is great because is does not over power other sounds.I like the stereo/mono switch because most clubs mono connections and mixing that way makes it more accurate for your audience. But then I switch to stereo for home and studio use.They have updated these with a new model but I still prefer these for the look and feel of great headphones.

The sound is excellent; what you'd expect from Pioneer.But this is my second pair that broke the same way. Like others, I baby my equipment really really well, but the headphones GUARANTEED will break at the ball joint.I'm not guessing; it's a flaw in the design. Whatever polymer they use to make the headphone body is weak, and joins down the middle (you can see a seam). The seam over time will fatigue, because of the way the outward pressure "pulls" the ball out toward that seam. It's simple physics that the plastic/polymer holding piece holding that ball joint eventually fatigues and cracks open, meaning that one day your heaphones, as you go to put them on, will just pop apart.Do a google search for HDJ1000 break if you're skeptical.Only gets 2 stars because the sound is excellent; these headphones WILL fail. DO NOT BUY THEM.I also, after fixing the joints with electrical tape, very quickly started noticing that the earpiece covers have started to desintigrate. All of the black material covering the pads is coming off, leaving little black specs stuck to my ears every time I take them off. Bad quality, which is a bummer because I like the sound.
