Pros: great sound

Cons: DESIGN FLAW IN THE SWIVEL

I have used these headphones for years and there is a sever design flaw in the swivel that I KNOW sony knows about. they will break consistently. IMO for a hardworking musician DO NOT BUY THESE HEADPHONES. especially if you are a working DJ. they will ALWAYS break!! Until this flaw is fixed I am boycotting all sony products. I cannot tell you how annoying it is having to go to a show with ONE HEADPHONE WORKING. if sony made cars like they do headphones there would be hardly anyone left on this plant

Nice sound but cheap plastic parts a problem

Pros: sound

Cons: quality of materials

I own 2 of these sets of phones and use them allot-i agree that they sound great-which they should for 100 bux retail- but i am switching to a different design because the plastic parts that hold the upper (not lower)earcup swivel mechanism on each side keep breaking-they are made of cheap plastic and have failed 4 times now-rendering the headphones unuseable since the earcup won't stay tight to your head when the plastic pieces that hold the swivel mechanism fail. If u are going to use these allot or wear them during outdoor activities u should get a different pair that does not have the upper swivels made like this. the parts that fail surround the upper swivel and are labeled "L" and "R", they are silver, and there are two on each side mated together with screws. Once they crack u are done since superglue will not keep the interior swivels from popping out when u use them faiurly often

Great Pair of Head Phones

it handles low frequency distortion like a champ, ive used stanton and numark headphones and for the price nothing cab beat this but, im on my second pair, the joints first begin to crack then one day one side just falls out...it really needs screws or maybe a metal joint casing so it wont crack

DJ Standard

Pros: Excellent sound quality, build quality, comfort and price

Cons: Top layer of leather on the cups has chipped (very small and unnoticable), but I can see it getting worse in the future.

Best pair of headphones I've ever owned. I love the swift movement of the joints. They are so comfortable. Quality is great. Originally I wanted to have a pair of these and then some $500 Shure earphones for my iPod but I realized, since these are so comfortable, have a great frequency range, and are durable. It's not worth it to get earphones. I use these everyday with my iPod. iPod has insane output to these so just being powered from the iPod, they still hurt my ears (without distortion). I love the 1/4 jack and the coiled wire. I do recommend you wrap the coiled wire around the jack a couple of time to release the tension on the connection. That's how most dj headphones break. Some say these are bulky but I love it because they fit around my ear fully, my lobes don't touch the phones at all. BEWARE!!! If you haven't heard already, there are a lot of fake pairs of these that can mostly be found on eBay. I would know, I bought a pair of the fake ones at first. I got a full refund but what you should look out for is the coiled wire to be glossy rather than flat (glossy are the fakes). There are many other things you can see but that is all I noticed. In conclusion, I am going to hold on to these babies until I run them into the ground, then possibly buy them again... haha. Hope you learned from my review.

Best DJ Headphones

Pros: LOUD, Swivel Design, Comes with carrying bag, Great sound quality

Cons: NONE

I just received these headphones today. These headphones are perfect for DJing. The swivel design works great. You can wear them in many different ways. The bass is really good unlike other DJ headphones so you can actually hear what is coming out of the DJ speakers. It has great sound quality that is very clear. These ARE VERY LOUD! Do not turn the volume up all the way because you might go deaf. It also come with a traveling bag. If you are looking for great headphones for DJ or home use, buy these!

Get rid of Supra-Aural and you have a winner

Pros: natural leather/construction

Cons: supra-aural ear cups

I can't stand the supra-aural design of the 700 earcup. On the other hand the natural leather is better than the urathane leather (see MDR-V600) which eventually peels away. Sometimes after only an hour of listening my ears are in pain from the constant "pinching" due to the cups resting on my ears. This is my 3rd pair of Sony DJ/Studio Headphones. My first two were MDR-V600's (see review there), and my latest set is the MDR-V700DJ. I have to go back to the MDR-V600 as their Circumaural ear cup design completely goes around the ear and are more comfortable to wear for hours. This is unfortunate because the MDR-V700 are better than the MDR-V600's in just about every other (non-audio) way. Summary: There is a trade-off. If you can stand the supra-aural resting on your ears and prefer the natural leather, go with the 700, if you like to wear the headphones for more than an hour - go with the 600. The 600's are cheaper and have the same audio performance anyway.

Pros: Good Sound Quality. Comfortable.

Cons: Comes apart at the Joints. Wish there were some screws

The best I used so far in terms of sound quality and comfort. Unfortunately I"m on my third one in three years. They come apart at the joints. Wish there were some scerws and replaceable wires. It is still the only one I woud buy.

SWEET ! ! !

Pros: EVERYTHING !

Cons: NOTHING !

I've been through quite a few headphones over the years, and I have finally found a GOOD pair! These headphones do not distort even at high volume. They also are very clear dispite the ability to handle high music volumes. I have also found these to be slightly noise cancelling. The louder the volume, the less you hear around you!
