Pioneer DJ HDJ-X7 Headphones Un Boxing Short Review

0:01 Say hello to Bobby

Right, here are the Pioneer HDJ-X7 professional DJ headphones and what can I tell you about these? Say hello to Bobby. Alright mate. He's always got to be in the picture, ain't he mate? OK, so first of all apparently 5Hz to 30,000kHz. Now 5Hz is your low frequency and I find that very interesting because 5Hz is like... Really, really low. So if they can go that low, that's very clever. 50mm driver, sound isolation and also we can whack up to 3,500 milliwatts on these little babies. So don't all of a sudden sort of like let your hair fall out. You know, that's not 3,500 watts. A milliwatt is a thousandth of a watt. 5 watts. Right, what else have we got here? Military grade certification. We've got the headband tested 20,000 times so by the looks of it you can give it a good old twang and it's not going to break which tells me there should be a metal rim inside the headband and to be quite honest I think all headphones now should have that. Gone are the days. If you find a set of headphones

1:55 I'm going to try and keep this part of the box

It's just got plastic around the headband, then maybe treat them with care because they might not last. I'm not saying they won't but of course with day in day out use taking them on and off your head you never know you might have problems with them breaking. Oh dear, I've just... whatever. Okay let's just rip it open. It's only an outer box anyway. Let's get rid of that. Okay, deeper connection. Like it. Right, so I'm going to try and keep this part of the box. It would be a good idea. And let's see if we can go out a little bit more. And into another box. Okay, there. And let's have a look here. I can hear my phone going but whoever it is will just have to wait. So they look rather nice. Let's have a look what's inside here. Okay, so we have our cables, we have a bag, we have the instruction manual and I suppose guarantee and whatnot. Yeah, always be careful about headphones. Make sure you read the instructions. Put them on your head. That's about it really. And here they are. Neatly packaged. So again, Pioneer, don't mess around with packaging, you know.

3:52 A connection here, a small micro jack connection into the headphone it

When you're paying a premium for a product, you should expect it to come packaged correctly. Now, first impression is they don't feel plasticky at all actually. They feel quite sturdy and there we go. There is your metal. I'm pretty sure that is a metal band. Yep. And yeah, so you shouldn't have any problems with it collapsing and falling apart. Okay, so we can twist that all the way around, which is great. So what that means is you're DJing, all of a sudden you just want one ear free, you can do that. Alternatively, you can move it like that and just use it for a monitor on one ear, like that. I like that, very nice design. Twist them up, I presume, so put them like that so you can... Put them like that for storage, put them in the bag and so on. Okay, so cables like with I believe most of Pioneer cables now, quote me here if I'm right or wrong, sorry, Pioneer headphones is they will come with two cables. Yeah, so a nice curly cable, great for stretchy bits and as ever

What we do have is, ah right, something slightly different here. Haven't seen this before. A connection here, a small micro jack connection into the headphone itself. So I haven't seen this before and by the looks of it you push in and twist. So that's probably a good idea. Alright, pushing and twist. Let's have a look. We've got a straight cable here. Same, pushing and twist. And we have our quarter inch jack and we have our mini jack. Now I've also noticed as well that the micro jack here that goes into the headphones has four connections, so I'm not sure about that why it would have to have four. Possibly something to do with allowing to have a mic but then... There's no microphone on here unless there's one here. No. So maybe you can answer that question. That's a bit confusing to me because generally you have left, right and earth but here you've got four on the micro jack that you put into the headphones and then you have three on the mini jack that would go in to your controller or your mixer.

Anyway, it's pointless me giving a demo of sound because you're not going to hear that over the web. But there they are. These are the HDJ-X7s and so far so good. What I will be doing in a future video is having these next to a couple of the other headphones, maybe some of the makes as well. And I can just give you my honest comparison. Practice. And enjoy. Thank you very much.
