Where's Sennheiser HD-280? Although it has its faults, I prefer its sound over Sony v6's.

I also just got my hd-280 and am loving the sound. I am wondering what configuration did you break your headphones? Config A or Config B on the manual?

someone should make this thread sticky... very important info!

50/50? haha.. that's not helping. I guess another consideration is isolation. I was recommended the Senns to protect my ears. Also I'll probably bring them along on my daily subway ride which isolation would be a big plus. Here's my review for what it is worth: (sony mdr-v700, sony...

I am new at DJing, and in need of a new pair of cans. I've narrowed it down to two choices: Sennheiser HD-280 pro and Sony-MDR7506 The 7506 has been around forever and you see them everywhere so their quality I have no doubt. It's being dicontinued however, and it's US$10 (street) more...
