I liked the SUCKED review better.

An honest review. I commend your effort to actually try to describe the sound of the Mixr's other than "they suck".

What kind of Prof DJ would use these 'things'? Man get something real seriously.

I'm a pro DJ that plays in a different country every week and they're my go-to set of cans, read the review about my reasons why.

Sounds like you'll like them if and only if you're DJ'ing. I honestly don't have too much of a problem with people using the Mixr's so long as I don't see another person using the Studios trying to DJ.

Can't DJ with the Studios, too heavy, clumsy, not a very snug fit and they'll break within a month if you're traveling.

Sorry bro no offence but there is way much better options just for DJing too. Anyway what is important is that your happyness, which exists. I was just saying it could be better for you to get a higher quality gear.

Decent review, but I've always found that a more neutral headphone is useful for sound work, as it give you a better view of what is coming out of your speakers. As far as them being "loud" goes, with a good amp, you can drive any pair of headphones far beyond reasonable levels.

@Amber: absolutely no offence taken and if you can name a few pairs that are better for DJ'ing than Mixr's I'll be happy to try them out, if I haven't already. @ender323: there are different kinds of "sound work." I agree that neutral and flat works best for pro studio work, and I use ATH M50's for that. DJ'ing however is very different. For one thing, I play on a different sound system every week. The monitors in the DJ booth and the speakers in the club are always on different amplifiers and systems, so no way is what I'm hearing in the cans a valid point of reference for what's happening out on the dance floor, as you not only have a different set of acoustics (booth and dance floor) to deal with, but the club system always has EQ'ing and other effects in the signal chain to help deal with that club's specific acoustics, While the monitor system in the booth is always flat. Many times you even have powered speakers for the booth monitors. That said, things can get extremely loud and chaotic with the crowd noise added and I find that the pronounced kicks and claps of the Mixr's are a big help.
