Fake HDJ 1000’s
Hey I am looking on ebay for a new pair of headphones, I’m primarily looking for hdj 1000’s and there is a lot available that just seems way too low to be true. Has anyone on here bought a pair off of ebay? Also how would I be able to tell if they are fakes?
Why HDJ1000’s? Far more better headphones, plus they are notorious for falling apart. If you do decide to get a pair, look for a reputable dealer who’s certified and hopefully in your country as well.
Don’t buy pioneer (or sony) headphones on ebay- tons of fakes.
Besides, I wouldn’t pay for real hdj-1000s.
^ I figured that
I was looking at them because I figured I would be able to find a pair for around 150 but the more I looked the less comfortable I was ordering them
What?!? $150? You can get them new for $130-$140! I wouldn’t pay anymore than $80 for them now a days, such a sub standard pair of headphones compared to everything else that’s out there today
I’ve broke everything else, the only pair I can get to last > 6 months are the pioneers. I snap the connector all the time
You can get much better headphones for around $150 and HDJ-1000s are not worth $150. If you like over-ear then Xone: XD-53s are around that price new and are way more durable and sound a lot better although the XD2-53s are coming out soon and have a replaceable cord.
When you say you snap the connectors you mean the audio cable connector? get something with a replaceable cord.
Thanks I’ll check them out
How durable are they, I’m looking at that swivel and I just see myself breaking it within a month or two.
hdj 1-500’s? maybe bit over ur price range but worth the stretch if your not willing to pay for 2000’s imo
HDJ 1000 are known being fragile, sure there are people who have rocked them for years but it’s a point worth considering. Personally I would buy RPDJ-1200 in the $120 price range. I tried the XD-53s a few years back but ended up picking the Technics I just mentioned.
I’m thinking I should just shell out the cash for hdj 2000’s. I really didn’t want to go into the 200 + range though. I was looking at v-moda’s too because of the flexible ear but I just don’t wana shell out that cash without a decent test run
Hdj 1500. or just get the sennies hd-25 and get done with it xD
My old hdj 1000 haven’t snapped in 8 years, by the way. I was aware of the breaking point from the beginning, careful like always, and they still work. They are not far from their successors. They sound very good (for djing).
Take care of your shit! I’ve had the same gig headphones for 3 years now and they are still in mint condition (except for some cracks in the earpads).
haha I know man I try, I really do
I love my HDJ2ks but the cable lock systen they chose is the weak link in the chain. Why didn’t they go with a screwable 1/8 plug like the rest of the industry is beyond me.
For the record, my cable works fine but the lock is busted.
If your going to put out good money and want great quality get some 2000s but buy them off like sweetwater or zzounds and pay monthly
Smart man, go with his thinking! If paid off in 6months you can usually avoid interest rates
get a pair of audiotechnica m50s or shure 840s and put it out of ur mind
