Okay, so I just wanted to create this thread for anyone who is trying to decide which of the Ultrasone headphones to buy between the ones mentioned in the title, for clarification purposes. HFI-580 vs DJ1 They are the same exact headphones except the DJ1 has a coiled cable instead of a...

Hey everyone I bought a pair of Ultrasone DJ1's and these are my first headphones :D I got them and the box looked soo good and when I opened it, the case was better then I expected, I thought it would be some cheap polyester. I got these for $114.95 from beachcamera eBay store. Ive had these on...

Hi,   I am looking for a recommendation for a suitable headphone which would complement the following:   Music genre: Radiohead, Portishead, Muse, with occasional Classsical and other Indie tunes.  The aforementioned are main, but every so often will like to listen to Heavy Metal/Nu...

I'm looking to upgrade my portable listening experience and am having trouble deciding what headphone to get.   Features I'm after: Circumaural (I feel like on-ear headphones are going to fall off all the time) Able to be driven by my phone (Nexus S) or mp3 player (Sansa Clip+), i.e...

I've never tried a good pair of open phones, and since the weather is getting warmer and I'm not broke, it seems like a good time to do it I have the newer Ultrasone DJ1 (same as HFI-580, almost same as HFI-550/older DJ1), and I love the sound, except for me they have an unpleasant peak...

I'm heading off to college in late september and I'm probably going to get 110 bucks for some new closed cans. I've ahd the ATH-AD700's and I like em, but I'd like some full size closed cans for music. Any help?   Here's the list of recommendations I've gotten on another forum. DT770...

Hi, so I got my first pair of quality headphones (Ultrasone DJ1 Pro) and received them in the mail last week. The sound quality is great but the ear pads are annoying as hell when I move slightly with my glasses. The ear pads makes some kind of noise that sounds two balloons rubbing each other...

Ok, you know how you can't "feel" the song till you really crank the volume up?  Well, what I've seen is that the more expensive head-phone you use, the lower volume you can listen to it on comfortably.  So my question is, at what point does that effect start becoming better?  How much are those...

This is my first post, so please bear with me. I listen mostly to dubstep, not skrillex type stuff, more like benga (look him up). I previously owned Grado sr60's and loved them, but when I started listening to dubstep the lack of bass began to be a problem. After a bit of research Ultrasone...

I've been looking around for my first pair of true quality headphones for awhile now and I decided upon the Ultrasone DJ1s (not PROs) based on all of the wonderful things you guys have said about the HFI-580s. I just wanted to be reassured that these are the best choice in my price range ($150)...

does anyone know how much does the Ultrasone DJ1 cost in Netherlands or in Euro currency ?? coz my aunt is there and i want her to get it for me ,does anyone know like anyplace there in Holland which offers this cans with proper price ???

Hi All,   Have some extra cash at the moment and am considering a new set of cans. I have been looking at both the Q701 / Sony XB 1000's for some time weighing both pro's and cons and trying to decide on which to go for.   I do like bass, doesn't have to be excessive but certainly there...

Hello all! Cool forum! I'm a watch hobbyist and I love to see people are just as in depth with other things, especially headphones!! I'm OCD about sound....alot, and alot of other things too. And I'm always listening to music. I figured its time to drain the wallet a little and make my music...

Okay, I just got a good amount of money, so of course I'll get some great headphones that I could never afford before, and I found the Ultrasone Pro750s and I thought that I would get those, but I just discovered the Dj1 pros and both seemed to get good reviews. I found the dj1s at about $150...

Hi I am currently looking for a durable closed headset preferably with a straight cable and circumaural ears.  I wish to use them for gaming, metal and some techno music.  So far I have found the beyerdynamic dt250 and shure 840 models.  Any suggestions?

Which amp should i use for dj1 pro. Could iphone or any ipod drive dj1 pro? Also which player should i use, cowon s9,  a845, or fuze? (what's their difference.) i listen to hip-hop and rap, want to have more bass.

The Ultrasone's DJ1 Pro have an old and a new design (see google pictures and you will note a difference, the newer one have more black on the cups (2 black circles).   I know the regular DJ1's old and new version differ from each other, SQ wise. What about the DJ1 pros? Since I am reading...

I am a college student, that does a lot of traveling. I am looking for a set of over ears that have a decent amount of isolation. I also want something that is not huge, something about the size of the beats solo (go ahead and hate). I actually was looking at the solo HD as I do like a little...

Hi ive been looking for some headphones for like the last 6 hours now and i need some help lol, im looking for some headphones to wear around town and at home that look cool and have fairly good sound.   Has to be over the ear (not sitting on top, I mean completely surrounding) around 150...

It is so unclear, after serching days and reading hundreds of posts, I always get different answers. Some say they are exactly the same, but one comes with more accessories. What I've noticed is that the Dj1 Pro has a circular ear pad, and is much larger. What I want to know is which one has...

hi everybody, I'm searching for a headphone that are comfortable, Good sounding and have addictive low bass. Now I'm using Bose Mobile On ear headset, they're pretty good but i want to upgrade to ultrasone DJ1/DJ1 pro/ Ath M50. Which one of them have a damn good bass, better than bose's bass...

After a year of looking around what to get, deliberating over the ATH-ES7, ATH-M50 etc. I was referred to Ultrasone for their strength being electo-house/electronica music. I bought the DJ1 Pro and its a bit average in my opinion. I realised though that if I don't insert the cable fully into the...

I have been on here a while now and I finally want to buy something good. I ordered a DJ1 Pro but it had a faulty cable so wouldn't work properly. So i don't know how good that could have been. Before i return i was wondering if I should exchange it for something else? I chose ultrasone as I...

"Upgrading" from an ATH-M50 so.. yeah. 3rd pair of closed backs :).   Mainly looking for bass, possibly soundstage, comfort, isolation, build quality / durability, overall SQ, and portability. Don't know if there's much else. Also rather have the better looking headphones due to I'll be...
