Well if both you and van Buuren use the Technics, that’s good enough for me.

I am just beginning my career as a DJ in Sacramento, CA.

I know you are dealing here with mixing tips and equipment and such.

However, I would also be interested in an expanded view of your experience in the DJ business FROM the business perspective if that is something you feel comfortable speaking about. Deciding the kind of DJ to be is one part of it. Then there is the part about getting gigs, etc. Everything and anything you wish to share, your loyal audience is at your beck and call.

Thanks for the tips regarding the headphones. I’ll definitely follow through with the purchase.

@ayurlip1, you’re right about that. There are lots of different pro DJ headphones but they all have their different features and nuances, each with different sound profiles.

Choosing the right headphone for DJ is very important, there are many things to notice while selecting the DJ headphones.The right headphones can ensure that you hear every note, folding swing-arms allow for one-sided monitoring

Thanks to everyone for your comments!

@Muxxex – Wow, that would have been a great price. I would love to give those headphones a try! Too bad it fell through. I once got a pair of fake Sony V700 and you could really tell the difference between them and the real ones. One of the main giveaways was that there just wasn’t enough flex in the headband. They were pretty uncomfortable and the sound wasn’t as good either. The real thing is always best. Let me know if you end up getting a good deal on the HDJ2000’s, maybe I’ll get a pair too =]
@dj mixer reviews – Yeah the most common complaint with the Sony headphones is that they fall apart after a while. The Technics are solid though, and more comfortable too!
@BaNCE – lol I can’t say I’ve ever seen that in real life

So do they have headphones with an attachable torch… Ever since I saw Blade I’ve wondered if they have them but never been able to find them…

I think, out of the headphones I have had over the last 15 years or so, technics ones always seem to last the longest. I had an expensive pair of Sony ones that just fell to bits after a few gigs! Needless to say, I took them back to the shop where I got them from and swapped for Technics ones and never looked back since!

I’m a bit bummed, the dealer I was going to buy my HDJ2000’s tried to scam me with knock offs

On top of that, I blew out my HD555’s recently. I’m stuck with laptop speakers, blahhh.

I think I’m going to pick up a new pair of Pioneer HDJ2000’s.

I was recently looking at wholesale websites and noticed a dealer selling them. The only problem is that you have to buy 5 at a time, but I have a couple friends that would go in on them with me.

The best part? At 5, you can get em for $75 a piece! How crazy is that eh? I think me and 2 friends may keep a pair each and try to sell the other 2 on ebay.
