Sony MDR-V700DJ Professional Headphones

Pros: Full sounding, rich bass, cool styling
Cons: Mids and highs lacking, bit heavy

Hello once again boys and girls. Pull up a chair, get comfy and get ready for another electronics review! This time, I'll be going over my new Sony MDR-V700DJ headphones. Let me first give you a bit of background info and then I'll dive into the meat 'n...

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: 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: 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: 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: Surprisingly Lightweight, great sound, very closed design
Cons: slightly tight head grip, hard to one ear monitor from shoulder

First of all I'd like to state that I'm literally just beginning to build my home DJ set, so although I'm extremely experienced at DJ, I have been practising :P

I used to work in an upper level club with fantastic sound, the owner was a sound...

Pros: Good looks, decent sound, loud bass
Cons: Could be a bit more comfortable

Pros: small, lightweight, compact
Cons: tend to tangle, lose sound in ear

the new sony headphones are excellent. small, compact and lightweight, they deliver full rich sounds, almost deafening bass and crisp clean highend. What every DJ needs in a headphone. I'd categorize these as more of a mobile headphone then a home use...

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: Comfortable, good sound quality, sturdy
Cons: Too easy to fold, high cost

Let me start by saying that I don't own a set of Sony MDR-V700s, but I will soon! I've broken my other sets of headphones so I use my brother's V700s when I am spinning. Comfort and build quality * These are easily the most comfortable pair ...

Pros: Awesome Sound! Clear bass and non-tinny treble.
Cons: You can't wear these just walking around.

The Looks: Well, they are DJ headphones, and for DJ headphones, they look cool! But you'd probably be laughed at if you tried to wear these just walking around. But, they are great for "around the house" use.

The Sound: Well,...

Pros: It sounds however you want it to. Low distortion. They get LOUD
Cons: heavy; uncomfortable after prolonged use.

I bought the MDR-V700's over six months ago, and I had been reading many reviews here on epinions and other places to help make up my mind. I'm writing this to help clarify some of the misinformation/biased opinions out there.

I've read...

Pros: Amazing Sound, Style
Cons: Not for backpack use, mine weren't too fluffy in the earphone

Sony introduced these headphones into their line-up for DJ usage. The MDR scale of headphones start small in number and go up. Since the MDR-V900s are the top of the line, I originally purchased these headphones because the specs on the 700s were close...

Pros: Excellent sound clarity especially in the bass tonal range
Cons: The headband may not fit everyone perfectly

There's a lot that can be said for these headphones, but they are best left to speak for themselves. The audio quality is amazing for live work or DJing where you need clear audio in a loud environment such as a club. I've used these personally for a...

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 ...
