All user reviews for the Pioneer HDJ-1000

I use it almost every day for 4 years.

I tested a dozen other headphones (AKG, Denon, Numark, Skull Candy, Panasonic, Sennheiser) before acquiring the Pioneer HDJ-1000, including headphones HDJ-1000 bought on ebay and found to be be a forgery.

What I like most is his accuracy, it detects all the faults of a sound, what is necessary to analyze music. It is not pleasant for a music lover because it is not made for that, it's a spice that does not forgive anything, so it's perfect for the headphones monitoring, and inappropriate for the hifi.

What I like least is the fact that there are many fakes on this model, and HDJ-1000 headphones are usually fake bad (we recognize them easily: they have no mono switch / stereo).

The value for money is good, since it has already lasted four with heavy use. In addition, you can purchase replacement pads when the pads wear the headphones.
I read on forums that many users complain of weakness at the base of the setting of headphones, as the R or L: I also have a crack at this place, but not serious for yet.

With experience, I have the same choice again.

How long have you use it?

About 3 years.

Have you tried many other models before buying it?

Just a headphone stanton first prize. Not really what I used as a reference, this is my first Pioneer high-end headphones.

What is so special that you like most and least?

More:

-Very good sound quality, there is not much to blame aside.
Isole-well enough ambient noise
-Maneuverability

Cons:

-Too fragile! Especially in headphones. I do not even count how many times I had to pick up.
-The quality of the "leather" headsets that takes time.

How would you rate the quality / price? With experience, you do again this choice? ...

At the time the value for money was not so good given the fragility of the product (paid over 200 euro).
Fortunately, the sound quality is second to none and always a good time.

I do not know if I would do this choice, I will buy more of a HDJ 2000 entry.

For how long have you been using it?
more than 6 months

What thing do you like most/least about it?
The pros: The sound quality and design

the -: it hurts a little to the skull if worn for long without removing it, but this is not the case when I mix so it is not too embarrassing.

What is your opinion about the value for the price?
This headphone is expensive but that is a very good product

Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...
I didn 't buy me this headphone is offered, but having said that is a great product! 5 dj different and some are mixed with the handling a bit like nags, yet he is still in perfect condition
So yes I do it again this choice (or I will take 2000)

For how long have you been using it?
I used it for about 8 months

Did you try many other models before getting this one?
Not too much of AKG studio .. not comparable

What thing do you like most/least about it?
The pros: The sound quality (which I find better than the HDJ-2000), the look
The - Ultra fragile! Party (3 times SAV Pioneer headsets for broken legs, yet I am very careful! Still in its box after use ..), no storage box (I had to build one ..)

What is your opinion about the value for the price?
At the sound, nothing to say but at the fragility ..

Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?
No, I think it is better to save a little to take the HDJ-2000 (which I bought after selling it there just after the last return SAV)

I use it for 3 years, I had the Sony-700DJ MDRV 5 years ago, and the HD 200 (my first headphone mix)

+ The sound is very nice to use for DJing and listening to HIFI and incidentally listen to my music productions to the headphone, it gives me another idea in addition to the car radio and speaker monitoring.

- Tired head after a while, it tightens on the cartilage of the ear.
- The finish is not the height, 200 euros a headphone, he finally crack on left earpiece in plastic (under L).

With the experience I would not recommend this headset, it is an expensive toy Playskool.

- For how long have you been using it?
Since 4 years

- Did you try many other models before getting this one?
I had another low-end headphones that I can not remember the brand

- What thing do you like most/least about it?
+ Low solids, the overall sound quality
- It fragility, haunting stuff for the Pioneer

- What is your opinion about the value for the price?
Sold far too expensive compared to that quality

- Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?
Probably not, I turned instead to the Allen & Heath

Captured during the first weeks (super good sound, bass), I quickly became disillusioned when I found myself with a part of every headphone in hand .. The biggest concern with this headset is the extreme fragility of the junction located just below the letters L & R. Indeed, this plastic part is very thin and very fast, a crack appeared (due to the fact that we should remove the headphone to put it on the ears). After a while the crack is enlarged and that party has simply broken. And both sides and more. I lost count of the number of times I had the pick. Now it seems to hold (thank you super strong glues of the job), but it's still a big design flaw almost unforgivable for a prestige brand, and especially for the price.

"For how long have you been using it?" :

- From 3 months.

"Did you try many other models before getting this one?" :

- Yes, AKG and Sony MDR-V500DJ.

"What thing do you like most/least about it?"

- (Le +) The quality of the sound emitted!
For me, this is the best!
good bass, well insulated, super sound!
Rather Class!

- (The -) The material used (plastic, PVC, therefore) is not resistant at all, especially at the hinges,
within 3 months of use, I had it repaired ...
& At this price point, we would have preferred something sturdy!

Wholesale:

-If you need a headset with a sound and perfect acoustics, you fell on the good!

-If you are rather abrupt and careless, I DO NOT!

So handle with care!

For how long have you been using it?
This will do 2 years.

What is the specific feature you like best, the least?
+: The bass is just standard and notorit the brand takes a little more evening that a headphone without a name.

-: As with many of these headphones' s owner, he also pt at fixing the strength to put headphones on the head. This is very bad, especially for a product from Pioneer!

Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
No comparable models, that lower range.

How do you report qualitprix?
A bit expensive even when (I've bought about 180 in store).

With exprience, you do again this election? ...
Not sure, if I find a headphone more robust. The HDJ-2000 look a little more robust that the level but I have not tried yet and the price is a bit chilling. Otherwise I would have no remorse to another brand.

I just purchased a set of pioneer hdj 1000's of eBay and when they arrived they were fakes. They are American audio hp-700 with the pioneer logo on them. A very similar look but a few minor differences. The sound quality isn't bad but the lows are horrible. They make a weird noise. They came from China and they were only $50. You can tell a fake from a real by the swivel joints, the fakes are black the reals are silver. Also there is no stereo/mono switch on the fakes. If the headphones are extremely cheap, come from china, and have a stock photo ask for a real photo of them or there probably fakes. I hope you found this review helpful.
