    I thought the idea was to protect both ears?

    Isolation is not the same as protection.

    really not that complicated if you think about the definition of each of the words or tasks

    Isolation is basically, keeping outside noise OUT of the headphone
    and at the same time, keeping the INSIDE noise inside the headphone

    Protection is, just that
    If you have really good isolation, yuo wont be POUNDING your headphones so hard that you will damage your ears.
    And for the love of god, take a minute each day and try to learn how to do full mixing in headphones with no monitor

    Trust me.... when it comes to shitty sounding dj booths, youll be happy you learned this.

    I started out that way, and almost every time im in a booth with a dj monitor, i shut that off or turn it facing out to the dancefloor

    i realized i do much better without it

    Isolation is how well they keep outside noise out. Ear protection relies on keeping outside noise out.

    So headphones with good isolation will protect your ears well.
