Re: New Xone Headphones....

that is one of the top things a dj should consider when purchasing new headphones. The quality of build. I know the sony's weren't made really all that great. Mine still work, even after I've been using them since 2002. But i've got clamps on the tops of the earpieces.

Just got these xones. Fking awesome headphones. All Mike Tyson punchy up on my head. Love em.

Was deciding between hd25, ultrasones, and xones. In the end, i really liked the Sennheisers, but not for djing. The Senns sounds awesome, full audio range, really clean sounding...it just came down to they just felt flimsy and i didn't care much for the smaller ear pads on them or the narrow dual headband. Ultrasones, nice sound, not enough punch for me.

Xones fit nice on my dome, steel construction, amazing isolation, and i'm going 12 rounds with a heavyweight with these things on. Pow!

Maybe your friends can't hear you.

exactly. though i wouldn't worry about it, they won't be dj'ing for much longer at that rate.

Re: New Xone Headphones....

Re: New Xone Headphones....

that and you must turn them up way past what you need. I cue with both headphones on at the same time. And don't hardly ever go past 10:00 on the volume knob on the mixer. I guess that's why i'm still using the same Sony's since 2002 for dj'ing and pretty much anything else.

I do wanna get a pair of 650 Ultrasones though. but only for production.

Re: New Xone Headphones....

you use ultrasones for dj'ing?

Yeah, not my studio cans, but my DJ1Pro. A lot of people say they don't have that 'punch' that other cans have, but I also like to be able to hear afterwards and not have my ears bleed.

Re: New Xone Headphones....

I think they looked like they are OEM'd from some other company, maybe not...
