    it's ok in a club. I tried them, but i like my hd25 or my brother's hdj2000 more. They isolate much better.

    you dont really need a second pair if i was to buy a second pair i wouldnt spend more than £20 your not there to listen to the music in your headphones just to play it, you use the headphones just to check tracks and mix positions but by the time you do play your tracks out in clubs you should know then back to front .

    The thing is that I'm going to beatmatch during my live gigs, in clubs, so I really need isolation.
    My only concern about getting the Sennheiser HD 25-1 ii is the price and the looks, I think that nowadays lookks is really important and the Hdj 500 are really beautiful.

    Well the hdj-500 comes in many different colors. But I prefer the looks of the xd2-53 it's all preference though.

    Huh?

    Price wise, you wont likely find a better set of cans than the HD 25's around the same money. You will have to spend a lot more to get something comparable on the sound. And lets face it, that's what you are buying them for.

    Looks wise, they are fine. Not all tacky looking like a lot of headphones out there. For me, its function before form. i.e. I'd rather spend my money on headphones that perform better, rather than make me look like an overpaid prick.
    Technics 1210 mk2's, Pioneer CDJ 500, Allen & Heath DB4, NI F1's (x2), Reloop Contour Controller Edition, Sennheiser HD25 1-II or Allen & Heath XD2-53's depending on my mood...

    If you're worried about isolation get a pair of IEMs. Something like the V-sonic GR6 or 7's. For the price of the 52's you could buy a pair of Westone UM2s. I personally think the 52's are really heavy/loud on the high end, enough that I have to use ear plugs to "feel" the music and not have my ears bleed after.
    The MUSIC is what matters!
    Everything else is _________
