    How long have you use it?

    2 weeks, bought 165 with a small carrying bag on music store. Comes in 1 week nickel, a pretty box and a design that has the mouth

    What is the particular feature you like best and least?

    The particular feature I like most: the sound, a branch HIFI bliss, the bass is very good mediums low simply excellent, when the dynamic adcoiffe! We redcouvre his tracks, provided use with good quality mp3 or .wav files. Note by against it does not like the equalizers of the Ipod, especially with electro it saturates quickly because of its dynamics. Prfrez neutral rglage and sound will be perfect.

    The particular feature I like least: hm the cable is not very dvissable …

Note by against it does not like the equalizers of the Ipod, especially with electro it saturates quickly because of its dynamics. Prfrez neutral rglage and sound will be perfect.

    The particular feature I like least: hm the cable is not very dvissable and more cumbersome for mobile use is not really very practical. The finish also appears in rather strong set but I got too plastic has cracked slightly in any direction. Finally the headphone provides comfort not too bad but if you have big ears like me it can get a bit sore after about 2 hours of listening.

    Last note: If you have a small head, forget the headphone because the minimum rglage is already very big!

    Have you tried many other models before acqurir?

    Sennheiser HD 25, sony MDRV 700 and then other Audio Technica headphones and Bose non ddis DJing that far surpasses.

    How do you report qualitprix?

    165 absolutely gnial data as the sound quality

    With experience, you do again this choice? ...dropoff Window

    Gladly, I am rather confident and I feel that it sounds even better day by day <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_lol.gif" alt="" />

    Ideal for mixing quickly but uncomfortable over several hours.

    At first I chose for the reputation of the brand and since I used to wedge my main mix (conso Personal) by ear and not disturb ingame night.

    ras

    High power handling, great bass, a treat to mix techno / dance / disco / electro / etc.

    I just tried it when I buy my zone 62
    I have a 215 hd seinherzer and the sound is much better in my opinion
    allen on the sound is more dry BOOM BOUM.ca is not bad but those closest to a pioneer as a brand that has seineihzer .... my opinion is the best
    and the price for the HD 215 and moin much more expensive cousin of her ear so hard that it is not pleasant and What hurt the ears when the hd is nickel

    How long have you use it?

    From: 10 days

    Have you tried many other models before acqurir?

    HD25, which I find very powerful but that older

    What is the particular feature you like best and least?

    I am a bit of deu cot plastic headphone, it's a little heavy but has a plastic look and did some "fake"

    However the sound is top, recess from Allen & Heath is well known that the technical quality is perfect.

    Exprience with, you will do again this choice? ...

    The price is a bit high but it's Allen & Heath, so it is paid but they pay for quality level.

    I just criticized this aspect of plastic and setting very high.

    The Sony monitor: small dot on the famous reputable MDR7506 the ds is all recording studios because Sony is a subsidiary of CBS said that it is easier to provide at home,
    Et .. especially the arrter fixette which is that if the ears of such music stars is that it is excellent forcment, freelance suckers !!!!! .
    Also they seem to version 7506/7509 trs fragile even in normal use after a year!!

    We can truly say that they still there any attractive !!!!!!

    for Dj-V700: any version and not a fragile transcendence even more pronounced as the 7506/7509!

    MDR-7506: low and extremely low rev up they can say inflate the X-bass, a medium high acute brilliant style Loudness curve.
    Balance point, I was looking primarily for a headphone monotoring the CONTRL cost you, well I'm on septic trs neutrality of 7506/7509!
    Some prtendent fact that it is precisely to highlight the default = increasing, this means that they must be considered (with what precision!) Of severe acute or large bumps all requalizer sr to be not to make mistakes.
    Why not have dtails without being forced to make concessions on the neutrality (see Allen Xd 53)!!
    The only positive dynamics is quite large, although not trs natural and probably the long tiring!

    The MDR-7509 under low (more natural but short) with ht against a medium acute twisting their excs the dtimbrage surtimbrage or should we say!

    These 2 MODELS twist the ears good luck to the owners of these MODELS and are easy to find in OCCAZ which is when even a "bad sign and return the value or traditional Dt 770/dt880 HD25 more recommendable!
    For comparison I have never seen qq'un sell Grado headphones too happy to keep and apprcier!

    The Grado sr60/Sr80/sr125/sr225/sr325 is a registered Audiophile but rather all APRS why not!!
    I spent the Sr 60 & SR80 SR125 to get the best trs really good bass a bit round but firm, an acute mdium beautiful with a lot of dtails.

    The Sr225 is cohrent space in the sound quality of the stamps, but the Boss DS ht mdium too reprable especially compared to the SR125 (is that the latter is a less transparent! !)
    The sr 325 impresionant me not in comparison with a head dplorable keeping it shares with the sr225, we can adapt nanmoins optional large mosses over large ERRF 1000 Gs.

    The Ultrasone PRO 750 & 900 sounds thank you Universe, I was not more with a medium a little pinched nasal yet priori rods
    except that I found Hfi580Hd trs trs good (neutrality and dynamic) available but one week APRS!

    For Xd 53
    Assets: What I like even worships the neutrality of these farms are low and not inflate vareint engistrements according to the medium well located although acute short Retailer flawless and seamless with these dynamic 53mm drivers
    Its isolation

    J'tais just double rticent called DJ and studio.
    The appellation Dj forcment not match the high demands of e nterme neutrality but more dynamic and insulation.
    I thank especially the Audiopole cial (that recognize) for its exceptional Available for the Discoveries and the cost of this headset is in line with the product Allen who have distinguished themselves in the mix consoles / braodcast and they are not the most mals place to a reputable product Fidler and renames them. Like what we should have a priori, it is made I expected and I n'esprait more!!

    The least: the external quality doing a little plastic, but seems strong enough priori and maintenance of the headphone a little firm at the ears, may be that over time s'amliorera!.

    The R / Q / P is good and trs dropped a lot of references tables, without counsel Reserved

    Yes, no problem.
    I take too much (more for the audiophile cot) in Grado sr125/sr225 parallle a small but open type (that is quite audible to those around) but I sought in complment essentially a closed headphone !

    Bought just because he was promoting in my shop when I had to test some gear.

    For how long have you been using it?

    I use it for almost one month

    Did you try many other models before getting this one?

    Of Pioneer, Sennheiser, I do very little mix with headphones, I use it more for production, I have a Sennheiser HD 205 for 2 years, which makes his job very well.

    What thing do you like most/least about it?
    + Headphones imposing
    + Excellent sound reproduction
    + Very high precision in the treble and midrange.
    + Design

    -Plastoc
    -Uncomfortable after 2 hours (the atria with hot leather)
    -Quality Sound at its refund if the quality of the mp3 is bad at the base, it really means.

    - Basic setting great, me that is a small head, well it falls ...

    What is your opinion about the value for the price?

    Since I've purchased 99 euros instead of 179 euros, for me it suits me, cons by a high price I would have taken an HD 25.

    Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...

    Because it does just that 1 month I have, I am not commenting, but given the price charged anywhere I do not buy one, because there is not written Allen & Heath that was a great product. It is better to try before you buy.
    But I'm still happy because I stowed in its bag the HD 205
