First look at Pioneer HDJ-2000 headphones - reloaded
Contents of the video
Alright folks, one of my first demos on these guys here. They're from a company called Pioneer. They're specifically for DJs but they could be for anyone. They're stereo headphones. Right, the model number is the HDJ-2000. So without further ado, we'll pause the camera and we'll have a closer look. Right, first and foremost, my honest opinion about the sound quality is the highs are very bright. The very crystal and you've got a little bit more bass response there. I mean, again, believe me, I am by far an expert and it was very difficult to get a good sound out of them because in the BPM show there was sound all over the place. But, you know, we have got, it almost feels as though they've opened up the sound and you've got a wider sense, there's more colour to the sound. OK, right, let's have a look. What we're going to do now is look at the right hand side because it's slightly different to the left.
With this, if we flick that you can see it's got a natural flick back which is quite nice. The other side hasn't. And then also, check this out, push up and it clicks in place. That's quite cool. Also what you might need to do is follow any links in the description and hopefully what we will be able to do is give you the specifications. I'm losing my voice because I've been nattering all blinking day. OK, what else have we got to look at? We have got there a mono and a stereo switch. Now also, I personally think every single manufacturer of DJ headphones should do this. The lead. How many times have you put your headphones back in the little bag that they come in and you're just ramming the lead in? Well wouldn't it be a nice idea if you could remove the lead and put that in separately, safely and securely? So, they've done this. Little button there, press that down and that pulls away.
That's reason number one, so you can put them away safely and securely. Number two is how many times you've had that plugged into the mixer. By the way, it has got a quarter inch jack on it, that's a mini jack. How many times have you had that plugged into the mixer? You've moved away with your headphones around you and you've pulled the cable. Once, fine. Twice, fine. Three, twenty, thirty times, fine. But all you need is 31, 32 times and you start to pull the cable. 9 times out of 10 when the cable's knackered, it's a nightmare to get it fixed. So at least with this, there you go. If anything does happen, you can get a new cable. Alright, so a bit of a look at these guys. I'll just give you a quick bird's eye view if we move around them. There they are. And I'll be looking at these a little bit closer in the near future. So the new ones from Pioneer. Very new, out today. Practice and enjoy. Thank you.
