Stanton DJ-PRO 3000 DJ Headphone

Coming in at the top end (even at the budget price) of Stantons's DJ range are the DJ Pro 3000s. They're much like many of the others in this group test, but do have some idiosyncrasies that might be of interest to some. Or not.

After a few hours, the tips of my hears start to sting and I must take a break because these are tight-fitting headphones. I could see that being both a good and a bad thing depending on your usage/preference.

  These sound great, the cord is long, and I suspect the three modes are useful for DJs (High Pass/Low Pass/Normal). At first I thought they would be cheesy, but the LEDs are kinda cool; they let others know when to not disturb you. ;)

  The cord is kind of funky. For one, the hole is square where they plug into the headphones so you can't use a normal, rounded 3.5 mm cord. Secondly, the end which you plug into a source, is a 1/4 in. connection as opposed to 3.5 mm.

good sound quality but the structure was weaakkk.... they didn't last more than 2 weeks without breaking... wouldn't recommend them though..

When you read the description, they are not kidding about LOUD. I used them for the first time last weekend and these bad boys get so clear and loud. I used the 2000 S for 5 months till I lost it, these are definitely a step up. They have superb sound.
