Monoprice Premium Hi-Fi DJ Style Over-the-Ear Pro Headphone

Posted

Pros: Bass Quantity, Decent Mids, High are not harsh. Good clamping force, light, replaceable cable

Cons: A bit muddy on complex music, Almost Zero Soundstage, Mids are recessed, ear pads dont quite go around your ears, and get a bit sweaty

Comes w/ 2 cables - one is short, very thin, and perfect for portable use.

 

One is bigger, thicker, and perfect for home use. Comes w/ a 1/4 inch adapter that works fine on either cable.

 

While not the best headphones out there, they rival most sub-$100 cans pretty well.

 

I would compare them most accurately to Equation RP-22 X ($120 headphones that I thought were a good deal at that price)

 

The built quality isnt fantastic, but seems sturdy enough. I would recommend these are great beater headphones or great closed headphones for if you are a rare basshead and don't want to blow $100+ on cans for the rare time you listen to really thumpy music.

Pros: Incredible sound quality for its price, detachable cable, crisp highs, mids are surprisingly good, bass is clean and powerful but not overpowered

Cons: Earpads make your ears sweat, zero soundstage

For a pair of headphones that are only $30, I was blown away by these. They are the best headphones I've heard out of all headphones at this price.

 

Compared these to some headphones in a similar price range

 

Auvio HF202 ($40)

Koss UR/20 ($25)

EarPollution Mogul ($36)

 

Note- Yes, I realize that the Mogul headphones are terrible, but they fit the price range.

 

Highs - Highs are clean, crisp, and definitely not fatiguing whatsoever. Better than all of the ones I compared it to.

 

Mids - Surprisingly good sounding. Like most closed cans, they are recessed, but better than any other can I've heard in this price with mids. Much better than the HF202.

 

Bass - This is their highest area of excellence. Bass is incredible with these. Powerful and very clean, but they don't overpower the mids or highs whatsoever. These really have a great potential for bass.

 

Comfort -  Very nice to wear. Can be worn for long periods of time without discomfort. Only downfall is the material of the earpads makes your ears sweat. You don't normally feel it until you take them off.

 

Overall - I cannot recommend these enough. These are basically perfect for the price, unless you are looking for soundstage. With their amazing build quality, detachable cable, and price, these cannot be beat.

Monoprice Premium Hi-Fi DJ Style Over-the-Ear Pro Headphone
Description:

DJs can put in some long hours as they spin the tunes and they need equipment that is both comfortable and rugged enough to withstand heavy use. These Monoprice Pro Headphones are designed for the professional sound spinner and the casual listener that wants the best quality sound and best durability available. The earpieces on these 'phones are equipped with thick, comfortable padding that keeps the music inside and the noise outside. They swivel up to 90 degrees so they can double as a makeshift set of speakers. The headphones can extend up to 1.5" on each side and are wide enough to fit over a cap, while maintaining good contact over the ears. The headpiece is also padded on the inside and is made of flexible rubber, ensuring that it won't break. The headsets do not have a fixed wire. Instead, there is a 3.5 mm jack in the bottom of the left earpiece, which allows a standard 3.5 mm audio patch cable to be inserted. This means that if you break a wire, you don't have to throw away the headphones or make a messy repair; just get a new cable and you're ready to rock again! The 50 mm drivers and 100 dB sensitivity ensure that these 'phones produce good volume and premium sound clarity at all frequencies. The kit comes with two 3.5 mm male-to-male, gold-plated audio cables and a 3.5 mm to 1/4" gold-plated adapter plug. The thicker cable is over 11.5 ft long and is well suited for professional work and for laying back on your couch to enjoy the tunes. A thinner, lightweight cable is also included, which measures about 50" in length and is better suited for more portable operations. High-quality sound, supreme durability, and maximum comfort. These ARE the 'phones you've been looking for! *** 30-day easy returns. No restocking fee. Free lifetime technical support. 1 year warranty. ***
