    Default Cheap or expensive headphones

    Greetings to all! I am a beginner in the field of DJ and just collect my equipment, I want to get good headphones, but I'm not sure if at the beginning stage I need expensive models, I look Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO and DT 1770 PRO i found their comparison https://headphonesarena.com/headphon...-vs-dt-770-pro and it says that the difference is not so great, there is a difference in frequencies and distortions, but is it really noticeable for a beginner? What do you advise? take 770 or 1770?

    There's really no point in splurging on DT1770S for a DJ enviroment, and the DT-770s are pretty cumbersome if you're not planning on having them on your ears ALL the time. You need functionality for DJ work. Have you considered on-ears headphones? I have the DT-770/80, Custom One Pro, HD-25, RP-DJ1210, HD280 and a ton of other headphones, and IMO the HD-25 is the superior one both in terms of practicality and monitoring your mixing.

    I would recommend to try different headphones before buying one. How do they feel after wearing them for a couple of hours.
    I recently bought the Pioneer HDJ X5 for 80 bucks and I am very happy with these headphones.
