Re: Sony Mdr-7506

I opted for the 7509s.... the 7506s felt too cheap... they are basically like the v6s

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

What are better? Sony MDR-7509's or Pioneer HDJ1000's?

Mavbee... but the 7506s are 90 euros cheaper, they cost 139eur + 25eur of postage the 7509 cost 229eur + 25 eur.

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

remember, you get what you pay for... the 7509s are more comfortable than the HDJ1000s and not as flashy... also, the 7509s cover your ear completely because they are circum-aural... I have BEEN USING both.

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

^ I'll buy a pair from you, for a dollar!?

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

4 bucks and it's a deal.

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

[quote=Caley Martin;414479]... I have both.[/quote]

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

smart cookie!

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

@ nebra

i bought my first pair of real headphones back in 2000. same model as yours 7506. i have loved them and they sounded good til about a year ago when they started wearing down a little. i always prefferred mine over anyone else's as i had gotten used to them and the sound quality (for me) was excellent.

recently i was given a new pair of 7506's (friend works for allen & heath) and they sound awesome. i absolutely love them. they got broken in proper the first day i had them. and as for home listening, they're great as well.

hope this helps.

A question for moderator: Is calling names a habit in this forum? As I know from other forums this kind of post is usually erased. Especially from a person who has heard those names from his parents and doesn't know what they mean.:|

Oh, so a different opinion on the headphones is not validated?

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

His post was more helpful to me 'cause you compared the 7506s with hdj1000s which I don't know. Simple as that. But anyway I thank you too for the answer.

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

forgive my counterparts nebra. most of them have never been laid and are very repressed. and in some cases candians. :oops:

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

actually, take a look... I compared them to the V6s and the 7509s... not just the HDJ1000s

yes it's a habit. get used to it douchehead.

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

I own the 700's and for me, they are the most comfortable hearing device in the world, please be so kind to advise me on why your 7506's & 7509's are better than mine. *Comfort *audio quality *performance *relation quality/price

THANKS!

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

Comparing the MDR700s to the 7509s, I would say that the 7509s are much more comfortable to wear over extended period of times, and they sound better... the mids and highs feel more clean and accentuated. The 700s sound muddy in comparison, but again this is all personal opinion and that varies from ear to ear. I figure you get what you pay for really.

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

i think different opinions in this thread have made it more interesting and informative

so why the bitch nebra?

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

nebra is a choad.

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

I started on the v700s and graduated to the 7506s. The 7506s are much lighter and much more comfortable than the 700s. They are also a bit more accurate and sharp in their frequency response when compared to the 700s which are more bass heavy and sound a bit muddy IMO.

Another great feature of the 7506s (and I don't know of any other headphone you can do this with) is that they can be taken apart very easily. Sony actually gives you the diagram for breaking them down and a complete parts list. this means that if you ever break them, you can fix them yourself very easily.

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

hey all just searched and got this thread. Quick question for everyone here.

I currently own sony mdr-500, had them for about 5 years and they are still working. BUT the rubberish headband or whatever is starting to dissintegrate and its annoying cuz i get little black pieces in my hair and they fall off every once in awhile. ANYWHO, i notice that the 700's have that, 7506's dont... after hearing good things about the 7509's, jsut wondering is there a problem with this with them? If so, might have to get a pair of 7506's... rugged = good.

thanks.

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

I too have the v700, but before those I had some cheap Techniques that weren't even for dj'ing... so I love my 700's.

And like Caley said, the 700's do start to feel uncomfortable after a long period of time on my ears.

I've noticed after a good 2 to 3 hours on my head my ears are soar, the little boney circular parts.. I guess I should take breaks and watch tv or something lol!

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

I love old posts....

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

so far my 7509s are holding up quite nicely

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

I have the mvr-600's and have had them for at least five years now. They stil sound sweet and they are comfortable as hell. but like mentioned bedore the black rubber stuff does start to come off after a while. They were only $100. can't complain.

Re: Sony Mdr-7506

I've been stuck with a pair of MDR 7505's for a while now ... not a massive fan of them personally - i'll go for the 7506's when i'm not quite so broke
