Technics DH1200E-S Pro DJ Headphones

I will keep this as brief as possible.......BUY these headphones!!! They are incredible. I purchased them for DJ / Home-DJ use as well as general music and film listening and cannot give enough superlatives to explain the quality, sound, comfort and overall brilliance of these headphones. Sound quality - I have read reviewers stating the bass is "muddy".....I disagree. The headphones are very bassy for sure, but they are designed for DJ use in a loud club environment where hearing the bass and kick drum etc is paramount. Apart from this, the mids are beautifully crisp and accurate with nice highs to boot. I literally cannot fault the sound quality and compared to Sony MDR-V500/700, there is no comparison - the Technics win by a hundred miles! Comfort - Amazing!! Really cushioned headband and soft, padded ear cups give a trully comfortable feel. Yes they are heavier than some I've used, but not terribly so. I have sat through a 2 hour film and numerous 2-3 hour DJ sessions and haven't had an issue whatsoever. Price - Yes they aren't cheap.....but you get what you pay for. Whereas you pay £50 for half decent headphones, you will no doubt need to replace these regularly, whereas these are indestructible!! And with a replaceable cord, I can't see you ever needing to buy another set of 'phones for life. Looks - They look amazing. So cool. And with a platter-style to the ear-cups, they are made to give the appearance of the famous SL1210 DJ deck and they don't disappoint (Yes I know this isn't the defining factor for most, but having them look this good helps) Conclusion - If you're serious about your sound quality, build quality, and "cool factor" you will NOT be disappointed. I honestly cannot rate them highly enough. 11 out of 10!!!!

These headphones are the tops. Tried a few over the years, always used a reference with my old Wharfedale DD1's, bass is superb with two drive units in each housing. Technics have surpassed this frequency response with single drivers and lots lighter. It's taken 35 years to get there but these beauties are worth waiting for. Was expecting two much thinking frames were alloy, no silvered plastic, but they are lots lighter than DD1's. If you love deep accurate tight bass without losing top-end these are for you.

I bought these to DJ with and they've never let me down. They are of rugged construction and very comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. I've now had these for a good number of years, and bar the faux leather covering having peeled off the ear pads, they are amazing. I often DJ a set for between 4-6 hours , and have no complaints whatsoever! It's a false economy to buy cheap alternatives, you really do get what you pay for!

The DH1200 is a pair of headphones made for DJs, in loud environments, not for home listening. They sound good with electronic music, but don't throw anything else at them, you will be disappointed. I have a pair of Denon cans that cost half as much and sound twice as good. However, for the enthusiast DJ/trance listener, these could be a nice investment. Sound is a bit mushy, especially with more demanding tracks. Bass is usually pretty heavy and overwhelms other sounds, but to some that might be an advantage. Build quality is very good, you can tell they're made by Technics. In the end, worth the money, if you are buying them for the right reason.

These headpphones were delivered in brilliant condition as advertised, and they sound great, look the part, and fold up conveniently. The sound really IS good- you definitely get what you pay for- and I should know, as I've used quite a few different pairs!

Bought these headphones for my husband as a present and he said there amazing, I have had a listen and must say the sound quality is really good so definitely a good buy!

really pleased with the headphones and the price was really great

The Good: Smart, solid design makes a rugged companion to any DJ. Size, strap and cups are very adjustable, especially since the compact cable also allows for much leeway. The sound emphasizes the beat, making it ideal to cue/preview tracks in a noisy/clubbing environment. The Bad: Bass-emphasis is too much for normal listening and the sound is all muddy. The overall quality is seriously lacking in midrange and clarity. Very tight fitting around the head, and the cups are too small for over the ear, making them an awkward and very uncomfortable fit for any period of time. Verdict: Stay away unless you're an actively-gigging techno DJ. The sound is crap, the price is too high, and any extended wearing is physically painful.

Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit diesem Kopfhörer! Verarbeitung ist sehr solide (Made in Japan) und das Design gefällt. Der Ton ist großartig und lässt bei mir keine Wünsche offen, benutze sie vor allem um meine Platten zu hören. Da ich aber kein "Profi" bin, kann ich nicht viel vergleichen. Es ist mit Abstand der beste Klang, den ich bisher bei Kopfhörern kennenlernen durfte. Die Kopfhörer kommen zudem mit einer kleinen schwarzen Tasche mit dem "Technics" Logo vorne dran, falls man sie transportieren will. Das Kabel ist "aufgewickelt" (wie bei alten Schnurtelefonen) und stört daher so gut wie nie bzw. ist leicht anpassbar. Einziges Problem, das ich mit den Kopfhörern habe: Sie sitzen sehr sehr stramm, was mir am linken Ohr nach ca. 20min weh tut und ich eine Pause einlegen muss. Ansonsten absolut toll. Ich würde sie wieder kaufen.

Excellent produit, le mien avait plus de 10 ans quand il m'a laché (1 écouteur ne fonctionnait plus) parcequ'il est tombé plusieurs fois à terre . C'est donc naturellement que j'ai racheté un nouveau casque technics. Son puissant et de bonne qualité, robuste et bonne qualité de fabrication; on sent que c'est du solide. Parfaitement adapté à une utilisation en boite car très isolant... En plus, ça fait plaisir d'avoir enfin quelque chose qui est pas "made in china" car il est "made in japan" et testé en allemagne, bref à acheter les yeux fermés...

Presentación de gran calidad. Diseño de los cascos espectacular, a imágen y semejanza de los famosos platos Technics 1200/1210 Materiales de alta calidad y muy buena apariencia. Aíslan mucho del ruido exterior, el sonido es muy bueno y realmente suenan muy planos, sin modificar ni transformar el audio original. No hará falta subir mucho el volúmen para escuchar realmente fuerte el sonido. El gran rango de frecuencias que abarca, 5Hz a 30kHz. Lo único negativo que encuentro, después de solo un mes de uso, es que dan un poco de calor y aprietan un poco, algo que no creo que vaya atenuándose a tenor de mi experiencia con otros cascos Technics. Por lo demás muy recomendables. Y la bolsita de transporte que viene incluida es muy práctica y bonita, con el anagrama Technics impresa. Todo un lujo tener unos auriculares como estos Made in Japan.

Premetto che sono un fissato di cuffie da dj. Le ho provate a dozzine. E ne possiedo moltissime perché mi piace collezionarle e usarle nelle mie serate. Dunque se siete indecisi se comprare o meno queste cuffie vi posso garantire che nn troverete mai una cuffia affidabile e di qualità come questa. Materiali di costruzione eccelsi. Predominanza assoluta dei bassi. Ma in una cuffia da dj quello si cerca per poter mettere a tempo. Insomma insieme alle allen heath xone 53 sono le mie preferite. Da evitare come la peste le beats!!! A questo prezzo prendete la qualità di un prodotto giapponese e di un marchio storico che nn ha rivali nel mercato da dj. Fabio Impuls

Cascos totalmente recomendables ya que tienen un sonido excelente, con cobertura y aislamiento total del oído y del ruido exterior. Viene con cable bañado en oro y extensible para llegar a todos los sitios. Son robustos y plegables con infinidad de posiciones para ponértelos. Como contra les veo que su peso es importante y que para usos muy prolongados (+4horas) llegan a apretar la cabeza.
