Sony MDR-V500DJ Monitor Series Headphones with Swivel Earcups

Amazon.com Product Description

The MDR-V500DJ closed supra-aural headphones provide top-end comfort and sound quality. The headphones are part of Sony's Studio Monitor Series and are built with high-end materials using advanced sound engineering. They are designed to meet the demands of professional and high fidelity users. Sony's closed type headphones allow only a limited amount of ambient noise into the ear canal, giving your attention fully to the music. The padded earcups fit comfortably, hour after hour. For those who like to use the headphones for single-sided monitoring, these MDR-V500s come with swivel earcups. The earcups are also reversible, and have been designed to be comfortable for on-shoulder use. The supra-aural design is engineered for excellent listening comfort. With this design, the earcups rest lightly on the ear, while the driver units are positioned along the ear canal for ideal sound transport. The wide, molded headband distributes the headphone's weight evenly. The headphones are foldable for easy storage and portability; when folded, the headphones will easily fit in a backpack or purse. The three meter cord (ten feet) is made of oxygen-free copper wiring for maximum conductivity and minimal noise.

Sony has installed several key features to these headphones to enhance their sound quality. The forty millimeter drive units delivers a deep bass sound and a wide dynamic range (the frequency range extends down to 10 Hz.) Both the stereo mini-plug and the UniMatch phone plug are gold-plated to make sure sound is transported fully and accurately. The gold-plated treatment also helps resist corrosion and supports the headphones' high conductivity and low noise. The neodymium magnets allow for superb power at a minimum size; these magnets provide more magnetic energy than other inferior magnets. Finally, the PET diaphragm works to deliver low distortion.

Excellent fit, excellent compatibility, excellent portability and excellent sound: these headphones fit the bill for a sound professional.

5 out of 5 stars easy listening.......2007-01-12

Nice product, confortable, excelent for personal use, at home or at studio fits quite well, people complains about not sounding hard enough at while playing at open and noisy spaces, but if you're using it for your self its very enjoyable.

4 out of 5 stars goods headphone, easy to handle.......2007-01-11

Like the swivel technigue, fits pretty well, use it more for gaming than for playing music, which means that after some hours your ears start to hurt a little bit, but I guess that's with pretty much every headphone the case. It has a good full body volume sound and the price is very resaonable.

4 out of 5 stars O.K........2006-12-29

these headphones are alright. they are well made. I had a pair of stanton Dj pro 3000's with better drivers but their cunstruction sucks they broke at the adustment band. These phones are not as capable of producing the same sound but they are built better therefore I recomend them.

3 out of 5 stars Sound is OK, uncomfortable to wear.......2006-02-01

The sound is fine enough (maybe a little lacking in substance) and it seals off any outer noise very well. However, my biggest complaint is that I can't really wear them for more than an hour at a time. They pinch quite tightly around my ears and if I'm wearing glasses as well, it's downright uncomfortable. I'd say they were the opposite of cushy. In hindsight, I should have spent a little more and gotten a pair of headphones with the double headband.

1 out of 5 stars Was made in Japan, now made in China.......2006-01-11

I bought these headphones about 4 years ago, and the sound was really good. It was full, round, and rich. The construction felt good, a bit heavy maybe, but was worth the sound quality. After 4 years the problem with the joint that seems to happend to everyone with the VX00DJ headphones, happened to me. It cracked from stress and the phones rendered themselves useless.

I had been using these exclusively for four years and knew their sound quality well, so I thought it would be a good buy. I was sorely mistaken. The first thing I noticed was that the insulation on the cord was of a cheaper quality. Then when I used them, I noticed the sound was not the same. They sounded tinny and weak. Not at all the quality it used to be.

So off I went to return them. I mentioned to the guy at the store that these weren't the same phones as what I purchased 4 years ago. I was informed that Sony used to make them in Japan, and now they're made in China. So in my opinion, DO NOT BUY THESE HEADPHONES.

Find something better.
