Customer Reviews
Fantastic Sound Quality and Great Comfort
I am a headphone addict, owning numerous high-quality headphones, such as the Technics RP-DH1200 and RP-DJ1200A, Shure in-ear buds with custom ear canal molds, the Sony MDR-V700DJ, numerous Sennheiser products (including the vaunted HD 650), and many more. I am constantly looking for the best sound quality/comfort combination out there. Do I have a problem...indeed. But hopefully, via my trial and error, I can help ease your decision, and ease the burden on your wallet.
Why buy this product?
1) Fantastic Sound Quality- Out of what I own and/or have tried, only my Sennheiser HD-650's beat it, and that's only in the mid-range. By the way, the HD-650's have such a high input impedance that you need an external amp to get decent sound out of them, unlike the Ultrasone's, which work fine, unaided, with my iPods.
2) Comfort- Second only to the HD-650's.
3) The Price- Is $235.00 expensive for headphones...well, at least it's not cheap. But I have dropped a lot more for headphones whose sound quality pales in comparison.
4) What comes in the box- Replacement ear-cups, extra cord with mono/stereo switch, and test cd.
I have little space left, so I'll conclude with this; enjoy the sonic delight. And, no, I do not work for Ultrasone.
Cheers.
Perfect, But...
These headphones (and the various accessories and hard case) are nearly perfect. But there is that awful connector between the cable and the headphones themselves, which never holds perfectly (or screws appropriately). If that were fixed this would be a totally perfect product.
Great Overall Headphones
Here is a mini review of the Ultrasone DJ1 PRO's.
I've had these for just over 2 weeks and I use them mostly for DJing, but they are so comfortable and sound so good that I use them for just sitting back and listening to music.
PROS:
- The ear cups have very nice flex to them that make it perfect to hold with your shoulder or one hand while mixing in a track.
- The case, adaptor, extra cord and extra ear pads make it a good package.
- Sound quailty on these are amazing. Even comes with a CD to show off just how good they sound.
- These are the most comfortable pair of headphones I've ever had on. They fit perfectly over my ears and I could wear them for hours with no problems.
- They are also a great looking pair of headphones. Nice to show off.
- Very nice build quailty. These don't feel fragile or weak in anyway.
CONS:
- The only major problem I have with the headphones is that they don't have very good isolation. My Bose triport headphones have much better isolation and at half the price.
- One other thing is that these headphones are huge. I don't mind the size myself, but some people might.
For the price I would have expected better isolation, but the sound quality makes up for it. Overall I'm happy with the purchase and recommend them to anyone looking for a great high quailty headphones.
