Sony MDR-V700DJ Professional Headphones

Pros: Great sounding, lots of bass, very comfy, and "stylin'"!
Cons: a bit pricey, wires are hard to solder

I do a lot of home recording in my basement digital studio, and since there are other people living in the house, I realized I needed some pro headphones for mixing and mastering tunes in the wee hours. The cheapo headphones I had just didn't have enough ...

Pros: Sound quality, coiled cord, compactness
Cons: Build quality, ruggedness, lack of replacement parts

I am not a DJ but I do a heck of a lot of video editing. I also listen to music a lot and use them with my computer for the occasional video game. I shopped around a bit for a set of headphones that would fulfill all of these needs and decided on the ...

Pros: Bass, Bass, Bass, Screw on connector, Swiveling ear cups
Cons: Eyeglass wearers beware a headache will come....

To start things off i was noticing that some of these reviews are from 2000 2001 and sony has really changed their headphones. I had a pair of 700s back in 2001 2002 and they worked great the swivel mechanisms on it broke after about 2 years so i bought ...

Pros: Excellent sound, good quality. Built like a rock.
Cons: Can be heavy and uncomfortable at times. Swivel is a serious problem but is fixable.

Finding a GOOD set of DJ headphones for a good price is tough. You can go cheap and get bad sound. And the high end ones can be ridiculously expensive. I think Sony has the happy medium here with the MDR-V700 DJ cans. The best feature is ...

Pros: Loud, punchy, plenty of bass. Uber-cool look. Durable.
Cons: Too tight. Quite heavy. Prolonged wearing brings headache.

Let me state the obvious: Not all professional headphones are created equal. I've owned this pair of cans for 2 years, but it wasn't until I bought the AKG K240 Studio headphones, that I realized the MDR-V700DJ's capabilities. Sony markets these ...

Pros: Good sound, great shape and excellent movement of parts.
Cons: Entirely plastic construction does not hold up.

Overall sound quality is excellent. Configurability is awesome. First pair owned ended up cracking a ...

Pros: Look cool.. :O
Cons: Non-accurate sound representation. Bass heavy, lacking mids and highs.

These phones appear to be the DJ's dream. But test them first. The mids and highs are droned out b ...

Pros: Cool styling, rotating ear cups
Cons: Extremely poor quality, uncomfortable

I just had these headphones for about a year and they broke. For $120, it seems like they should last a little bit longer than 1 year, especially considering that I have other headphones I've owned for 5 years !
The fault in the design is the...

Pros: sound is good, look is sharp
Cons: HOT earpieces after 1 hour

Sony is unusually good at designing products for end-users, except in this case. I was surprised at how nice this headphone folds up, and how it comes with a stylish carrying bag, and gold-tip plug (with supplied 1/4" converter).

HOWEVER:...

Pros: Block out a lot of sound, comfortable, and maneuverable.
Cons: Could use more bass.

I first became interested in the Sony MDR-V700 headphones when I got into DJ-ing. I looked around to make sure that I got the right ones too.
By talking to pro DJ's that I know, they told me how they were ideal because you can pretty...

Pros: Great Sound Quality. Keeps out most sounds. Comfy for the first couple of hours.
Cons: PRICE.

I got my headphones cheap at Best Buy with my discount. Otherwise they're 129.99. I recommend these headphones to anyone wanting to DJ or already DJing. I would not recommend it for just regular music use. Only because after awhile of use they don't feel...

Pros: Drivers deliver full rich sound
Cons: Uncomfortable after a few hours of continuous use.

The following is a personal review and technical evaluation of the SONY MDR-V700DJ Studio Open Air Headphone.

1.0 OVERALL:
The MDR-V700DJ is a high-quality stereo headphone designed for professionals or people who just want to look like...

Pros: Very cool looking, Many professional DJ's choice
Cons: Ultra tight, bass is lacking, 'leather' is cheap

I was on a headphone bargain site discussing a nice pair of Sennheiser headphones. Throughout the progression of the conversation these headphones came up and I wrote a mini review about them. I thought I would post it here to inform all of you Sony...

Pros: Stylish, very rugged construction, phenomenal sound quality, excellent power handling, comfortable, resilient cord
Cons: Heavy, excessive bass & treble output

Construction & Comfort

I recently wrote a review about the Sony MDR-G72LP headphones I purchased as a personal use replacement set. However I did not mention the pair of MDR-V700DJ headphones I own for my professional musical...

Pros: Very cool look, feel great, not too heavy, excellent bass response and no annoying treble.
Cons: expensive

I've had these for a while now and they are great! Good bass response and they get loud. They have awesome style, the way it folds up is cool and it twists perfectly for DJs.
They have good base, no tin sounding treble and great response. Despite...
