They have not broken on me yet, so i don't understand how the other reviewers seem to have this problem.Bottom line: If you want headphones with superb sound quality, i recommend these. I bought mine around June of 2006 and they're still in GREAT condition. I'm a bedroom dj and totally love them AND they're still 100% intact and as functional as ever. These headphones, the HDJ 1000s, sound outstanding. I ask my friends to listen to them and i get the same response every time--awe and amazement.
More surgery I guess. I got two years out of them before a section of the coiled cord degraded internally and shorted out. I cut out the faulty section and that fixed the sound but now there's also a bad connection somewhere in the earcup.
Dont get me wrong the quality of the head phones is superior in my opinion just the cheap plastic parts that seem to break at the same spots is what bothers me. All 3 times the head phone seemed to break at the swivel joint after a couple of months of use. So far ive invested about 450 dollars in 3 headphones and that is why i am going to look for another headphone i am a dj and i always baby my equipment. I have had 3 pairs of these head phones and I think I will finally stop buying this head phone because it isnt really sturdy.
but thats because they have to be tie, to avoid the loud sound of the Dance club. This are my favorite Headphones for DJ, I have numarks, technics, stanton, but this are the best.the only problem is that you cant use it as a regular headphone for more than one hour, because your ear will be Red, and hurt.
Eveidently, any HDJ1000 under $130 will likely be fake. Vendor no longer exsists, but I suspect they are still around Amazon under a different name selling them for $70.00. Buyer beware. I got taken since I thought it would be possible as an open box. Look for smaller earcup, black hinges and a thinner headband than you see in the picture. 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.
