Audio-Technica ATH-M30 Professional Headphones Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After purchasing an iPod mini, I thought I could use much better headphones to test the quality of the aiff files provided by iTunes. I must emphasize that I am not an expert as the other reviewers. When choosing this pair, I read reviews and looked for high quality under 50 bucks. These headphones put my big stereo speakers to shame. I can hear the background singers and instruments I haven't heard before. They sound completely awesome! (no, really, they do). There is a little bit of leak, not much. and they are extremely comfortable and lightweight on the head. I'll be testing them out extensively this weekend while traveling on airplanes. Update on airplane use: they are not noise canceling headphones, but they did block the noise of a few verbally obnoxious passengers, and while volume was cranked up, no one knew how much the tunes were cranked up. My friends that have tried them out call them *amazing*, like a symphony hall.
Around the house, they block out flushing toilets, dishwashers, and those annoying sounds from the kids' room. The cord is super long, so I can keep my iPod in it's dock on the kitchen counter and walk around and cook dinner and clean. And the connector has a strain relief so I know that the cord won't break off from running around.
I also needed headphones to go with my laptop while watching DVDs and listening to music and other computer things. Unlike my other cd headphones, these are in stereo and pick up amazing sounds. Also, they block out the computer sounds of the dvd spinning.
I suppose they weren't made for household use, but they sound so good, that they will keep me happy for a long time, baby.

Technics RP-DH1200 DJ Headphones Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I saw a few DJs wearing these more and more as i toured clubs. I had to check these out after being a Sony fan for so long. These mainly caught my eye when I saw AvB wearing these at a gig, a guy who cares about the quality of sound.
With that being said I tested these out. I originally had the Sony v700 phones but was a little disappointed with the highs. The lows were great, maybe a little too much bass, but decent quality sound. When I finally got my hands on these I was stunned that they were far superior!! Everything about these is WOW! The more you turn these things up the better it gets. The highs are crisp as can be and the lows are as accurate as they should be. Side by side these shamed the Sony's! Other than the outstanding sound the build quality is just amazing. There is rubber around the cans to protect it from breaking, the cord comes off, which is replaceable, and the headband is ALL leather. Not fabric underneath like the Sony's. The chrome look on the side as well as the look of a Technic's turntable makes other phones look dull. These also come with a black leather carrying pouch that actually fits the headphones and some. The Sony's come with this weak pearl looking bag that's way too small for both the phones and the cord; my cord was getting tangled.
I guess the best way to describe these are True-To-Sound. When blending two tracks together you can get an honest preview of what the track will sound like when played to the crowd. No more bass being too high or too low.
So if you're looking for the ultimate headphones look no further. These things will be on your head forever.
Pros: Superior Sound, Sturdy, Style, Leather Caring Case, Detachable Cord.
Cons: ummmm still thinking.........
