Headphones

Where can i buy some in and around Newcastle?

I'm after something like the MDR V500!

I just ordered some off Amazon, the fuckers took the money off my card then e mailed me to say they are out of stock

And are these any good?

u gonna use them for mixing / production use ??

yep

i wouldnt be cutting corners getting a cheap pair then m8 , best off aiming for something a bit more top spec for best results, u can often pick up sounds/noises/ etc alot better on a decent pair , cant go too wrong with a pair of THESE if u can afford em !!!

Blow a weeks rent on the Sony MDR V900's

I got sennheiser HD25's & sony mdrv 700's

I used to have the MDR V 700's, they are shit hot, but i heard the 500's are just as good for half the price?

those sonys are alright but i guarantee you will break them within 6 months...the build quality is pish


if you want to be a big hitter then get some HD25's (not the HD25SP)

nah i had 500's, then listened to my mates 700's there's a huge difference in sound quality, the cups on the 700's are larger aswell, I stil prefer my sennheisers over both though.

yeah my 500's snapped

try Aitken electronics on high bridge st www.aitkenelectronics.co.uk/

new mdv700's have been re-designed around the pivot point to stop them cracking

i love the feel of my mdv700s, i've bust both ear cups but with a little inventive repair work they're as good as new, if sometimes a little heavy

Yup True True, mine have been tossed about abit and still work perfect, but the older ones I had did snap in that very place, but like you said, thats sorted now!


Wish they did them in pink though!

Cheers lads

Might just hold out till i can afford the Seinheisers i dunno, i did like my v700's when i had them though :think:

i prefer my sennheisers by far over the sonys though, they're much lighter and look the business

Yeah untill you broke them and sold them to me.

pioneer hdj 1000's are really nice and great for mixing,
i love my pair (probs because i got them for free)

:yawn:

I did not break those you clumsy crustacean :evil:

Buy the most expensive headphones you can afford, especially if they're for studio use. Top end Sennheisers and Beyerdynamics are probably best for studio use. The Sony v7506 are a fantastic pair of headphones, but you'll have to get an imported pair off Ebay as they're not retailed over here.

I have HD25s and I love them. I used to use the Pioneer 1000s and they're shite, as are the Sony 700s.
