after comparison with the SigPro the SigDJ are wayyyyy more bassy. clearly bass head cans. too much for me.
In Paris thanks to the French importer. Great people.
SigDJ is definitely bass focused. Mids are recessed and often "covered" by the bass. highs are less sharp than on SigPro.
I feel SigPro.is.quite balanced while SigDj is really leaning towards bass response.
Don't get me wrong. it is detailed. But very colored.

I'm demoing the SigDJs now and I do agree with your assessment. I've decided to drop the comparison to the SigPro cos the loaner I got from the distributor doesn't sound right (I've got a mini-rant going on now that SigPros QC is just inconsistent & I've listened to probably 10 SigPros this year).
So right now I'm doing a back-2-back of the SigDJs & the M-100s instead & when I get home tonight, it'll be with the TH-900s.
P.S. I would consider the SigDJs mids to be somewhat pulled back rather than recessed. I feel these days that seems to be the general trend for headphones...Momentums, M-100, etc. The MDR-1Rs have been the only one that I've recently tried that's defied that trend.
The QC issue is a concern for me. If there are inconsistencies with so many Sig Pros, it would stand to reason that the Sig DJ could have the same issues.
Shouldn't be new news to you since you replied to MuppetFace back in June about this same topic :-

Well at least the 3-4xSigDJ's I've tried (once at the demo stand at the Fujiya Festival, another the next day when I borrowed from Timelord at the same festival before it was open to the public, the one Timelord has loaned me this week, and the demo unit at the e-earphone store), they sound same. Don't know if this gives you peace of mind.
In fact, these could replace my TH900 for electronic music, and I can pick up the 009 for everything else.
AnakChan, do you feel the SigDJ as a worthy competitor to the TH900 for electronic dance music? What are your thoughts?
