Jaz Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I'm having this debate atm.A&H vs. Technics vs. Sennys.Decisions, decisions.Best to go to a DJ shop and try each of them out. Headphones are such a personal choice. What one person may think are great cans, another may think are shit. Plus everyone hears things slightly differently too.no one thinks the XD's are shit ask Pioneer what they think of them out selling their 2000's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ongsta Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Very useful post, I'm still deciding whether or not to get a pair of cheapy HD205's for $60 odd or just fork out for a decent pair.Has anyone been able to compare the XD40's with the XD53's??

lloydc Posted February 2, 2011 Author Share Posted February 2, 2011 the best thing you can do is go try them out in store... i spend ages testing numerous headphonesXDs came out on top.you'll thank yourself down the track for buying a decent set straight off the bat.I recently had the opportunity of using my original headphones (stanton el-cheapo's) and they were god damn awful!!! I used to think they were good.... lesson learnt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eggssell Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 not too mention that within no more than 2 months at least one of the big 3 store dj, dj warehouse or lights & sounds have a sale.and they aint always advertised. just browse and im sure you wont be waiting long. they are all about as bad as myers new year, stocktake, mid year, end of financial year, spring, boxing day sale.i think they are not on sale about 4 weeks a year now.

Ravni Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 ok can someone clear this up i heard that these headphones are just re-badged audio technica ATH 700's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaz Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I doubt A&H would sell out like thatdid an audio technica salesman tell you that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggssell Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 nope its true. well maybe not rebadged. they are from the same manufacturer with different badging (like what a lot of car manufacturers do), but for the A&H they have the metal band which the audio technica's dont.but for the actual sound its exactly the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
street Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I think I might save up for a laptop and some production software instead of the headphones, coz i'm pretty keen to have a go at producing some music. we'll see though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggssell Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 in this skratchworx review it says it.also what do you mean by sell out djaz? audio technica make some aiight headphones. in fact the ones these are based on are highly rated for their sound, just everyone hates how they kept cracking. hence the use of metal in the band, and i think in the cuphttp://www.skratchworx.com/reviews/ah_xd53.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lloydc Posted February 10, 2011 Author Share Posted February 10, 2011 good link...I agree with it 100% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravni Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 i got two pairs of audio technicas got them really cheap, yeh i can vouch they arent durable, so the gold pair doesnt get thrashed and plus my sennheisers are the ones that get the most use i use the gold ones to lisen to my mp3 player they just look flash lol and the sound is really good .

lloydc Posted February 10, 2011 Author Share Posted February 10, 2011 i've used the audio technica ones before. they seem way more flimsy that the xones.your're talking about the ATH700's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
