Great For The Bedroom DJ

by   djvelocity ,  Feb 10, 2006
Pros: Great audio signal arrest, great connectivity, and great audio decibel levels
Cons: The cost (a little steep for people unsure of audio terminology to gamble on)
Review: The Sony MDRV500D Professional Headphones are the ideal setup if you are at all the type, to endeavor into production and/or creation of your own music. I (myself) have been a producer/dj for the last 5 years and I have yet to come across a set of ...

Simply fantastic

by   csuc_snowman ,  Jan 6, 2009
Pros: sound good. decent bass. amazingly well constructed, last forEVER. ok 9 years so far.
Cons: i'm sure they're not the best sound quality you can buy for the money.
Review: sound quality on the V500 is pretty good, with some decent bass response. why i absolutely love them however, enough to write this review, is the fact that i'm generally just hard on things, and this may be one of the oldest possessions i have that still ...

The ideal headphone for DJ's

by   panman3 ,  Feb 17, 2002
Pros: good audio quality, foldable, aspecially handy for DJ's
Cons: Connection cord has more weight than average headphone
The Bottom Line: The headphone is designed for DJ-remix use, and suits this purpose very well. For normal use the headphone does not benefit from the slightly heavier weight of the cable.
Review: The MDR-V500DJ is a headphone especially designed for DJ's. As a semi-pro DJ I have so far enjoyed my headphone a lot.

PROS:

The most important advantage is the spiral, telephone-alike cable wich solves the problem of the (long)...

for their price not bad.....

by   phatts ,  Sep 28, 2002
Pros: low-cost, there quite comfy, the screw off jack is really handy.
Cons: because of their low-cost they tend not to be able to handle at high volumes.
The Bottom Line: For the skint dj out there who doesnt wanna fork out too much for headphones, these do the job very well at a good price.
Review: A step down from the monstrously popular MDR-VDJ700 phones,
they have all you would expect from a lower model.
In most respects they are near identical to the 700's, sound quality being the obvious drawback, but for conventional listening...

DJ standard

by   stareyes ,  Dec 7, 1999
Pros: Durable, decent sound quality, easy to replace
Cons: Break with rough handling, don't block out all sound
Review: This is the classic headphone for club DJs although as things get to be big business most major DJs are moving up to nicer, more sleek models. These headphones are pretty good -- the ear pieces are durable and they cover your ears well enough to block...

comfort takes a back seat

by   rdeleon ,  Apr 8, 2000
Pros: sound quality, speaker durability, price
Cons: not the most comfortable, cushion material won't last forever
Review: i bought these headphones about a few months ago and i am fairly happy with them. the frequency range has held up and kept me satisfied with the variety of music i listen to, ranging from jazz to classical to hiphop. i listen to music fairly loud and...

Sony should be ashamed to sell this product.

by   zoogelsnof ,  Aug 18, 2003
Pros: Good sound quality, very portable
Cons: Very uncomfortable, can't wear for long periods of time
The Bottom Line: They're great sounding headphones, but they're simply not comfortable enough to use.
Review: I need to start with a small preface, I love sound, I’m obsessed with it, and I listen to sound all day and all night on all different speakers and TV’s and car systems. Due to my audiophile nature it is very possible there are things that would ...

Depends on your intended use

by   DrunkenMonkey ,  Nov 24, 2000
Pros: One-sided cord, The folding design makes them easy to transport, Swiveling earcups sit on your desk and keep the sound in so you can walk away from your desk without turning off the source, They grip your noggin pretty good, so you shouldn't have to press
Cons: Heavy, Uncomfortable, Distorts readily, Sounds tinny, Poor fidelity, Not worth $59
Review: I had been using a pair of Sony MDR-V200s, but I cracked the plug by moving too far away from my PC without taking off the phones. I'd given the ample V200 straight cord a few accidental yanks in the past, but this one broke the camel's back. I guess the...

Not worth your money or time.

by   est1978 ,  Jan 7, 2001
Pros: very durable
Cons: Lots of distortion, muddy bass.
Review: The only reason I bought these headphones was because my other headphones, the much better V-600's, broke. So I decided to bring my broken headphones back to the store to get a refund. But then I noticed the V-500's on the shelf so I decided to give...

Not even worth 30 dollars

by   MJSP ,  Dec 16, 2000
Pros: good durability
Cons: Tinny sound lots of distortion
Review: When I first bought these headphones I thought they were worth it for the price. That was until I bought the V-600's which are of better quality and have considerably less distortion. For one thing these headphones produce tinny sound. Which means the...
