**Ultrasone Pro 900 In a Noisy Club Environment?**

hey guys ive been looking at headphones a lot the past few days, with £350 being my absolute limit ive seen the ultrasone pro 900 and they seem to be great but there is not a lot of info on noise isolation and this will be important as i aim to be performing in clubs, feel free to suggest alternative’s you consider to be better! just please explain why also 🙂

thanks for your help!

With that kind of budget and isolation in mind, I would say go for the Shure SE535 in ear monitors!

ive done a hell of a lot of headphone researching past week and decided to go with hdj-2000’s now, mainly because ive heard isolation isnt great on ultrasones and that there the marmite of the high quality headphone world ( love em or hate em ) and tbh if there good enough for pro dj’s there more than enough for lil old me, I was going to go for the shure’s u suggested but after reading about iems and how they arent used the for pre-cueing it put me off it? i mean isnt that the only job of headphones ? ( other than isolate noise ), dont see how listening to the same sound thats coming pumping out the club speakers is helpful at all

i have ultrasone pro 900s and there awesome! though i use them for production. the isolation is there but its not as good as my old sennheiser hd280’s, but i like it better. i think its the velor pads allows more sound to leak through.

It’s complete overkill to get the 900s. I would HIGHLY suggest that you save a good chunk of that money and go with the Ultrasone DJ 1 Pro if you want Ultrasones to mix with. Isolation is ok with them and they do the job. There’s other cans that isolate much better like the HDJ-2000 or the Sennheiser HD25 Pros but at the end of the day, the DJ 1 Pros are super durable and does the job wonderfully.

Again, I can’t emphasize enough that for DJ purposes, the 900s are complete overkill.
