Pioneer DJ HDJ-X10 - The best DJ headphones for 2019??

[@KoiFabiosa]

I recently purchased the HDJ X10 and I am now watching this video again. I have to admit that I was also a bit disoriented when I first used these cans (And I first used them on a recent gig). But nevertheless, these are great headphones for DJing. I admire DJ Joey for always giving honest thoughts on every product review that he does. Keep it up!!

[@digitaldjtips]

Cheers Garry!

[@escobarik]

have you listened to DT770 PRO, if yes, which sounds better?

[@Bigheadedwon]

Expensive but they sound superb and are real comfortable considering how much they weigh. I've owned countless headphones over my life, I've had these since May 2019. And this is what I'll say about them after 1.5 years. They still look basically brand new, I use them almost every day, some days 4+ hours. Since they cost so much, for awhile I did baby them and put them in the case every night. But I haven't done that in a year. Maybe most impressive about them to me is the earcups still look brand new. Pretty much every other set of cans I've ever had this long, by now I'd either already replaced the earcups, or they would look trashed. These are still soft, and there's zero signs of cracking. Pioneer's nano coating claim sounded gimmicky to me when I was first thinking about buying them. But whatever it is exactly, it's legit. At this point I'm wondering if I'll ever have to replace them. For reference, I'm in So Cal and the 2 summers I've owned them there's been a decent amount of me sweating on them. I like these so much I'm pondering buying the black model, but I'm pretty sure if I used these every day they might last me forever. I've never had headphones with a build quality like these suckers.

When I was reading up about DJ headphones I saw people really hyping the ATH M50X and hating on these because they lack bass and exaggerate treble. I tried the M50X in-store alongside 20 other headphones a few years ago when looking for a pair of studio headphones and they stood out to me because of how bad they were. Very bloated bass, not musical at all and very little detail. Sounded super congested. I went with the Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro 250 ohm version back then, and those are still one of my favorite headphones. The HDJ X10s are also good, but they are less detailed and have piercing highs. Those piercing highs aren't necessarily bad when you're trying to mix in loud environments and listen for hihats. The bass is strong, but not bloated. It's very linear and I guess that's why people think it doesn't have bass. They're just not used to bass having more than one note. Listen to Trentemoller - Take me into your skin, which is what I use to test both detail and bass in any equipment I buy. The HDJ X10s easily pass that test. Would I use them for casual listening? Probably not, they're not really great for that, but for DJing/mixing and tracking theyr'e pretty dope.

Finally! Someone made a review for the HDJ X10. Thanks DJ Joey and the whole Digital DJ Tips Team.

[@digitaldjtips]

You're welcome Garry :)

[@flytdeckph]

I love the 2000mk2 for its slim design and balanced sound.

[@digitaldjtips]

Thanks for sharing Jay.

[@Capo711]

I have the mk2! They are good, but sweaty issues is a problem. Hopefully the nano coating works on this!! Def more chunky than mk2, but I’ll take audio quality over slimness

[@JD-ih2io]

Fantastic review Joey and I completely agree with you, these are absolute beasts both in and out of the club!

[@digitaldjtips]

🙌

[@asad5067]

can you compare these to the senn hd 8 dj or hd 7 dj whichever price is closer?

[@Djstevedee-z1l]

[@macbass1048]

DJ Moory B I decided to go with the X10's and they are amazing

[@ClectaSkiMusic]

Keep up the good work Mr. Joey

[@digitaldjtips]

Thanks :D hope you liked it

[@Jackdiamond_dj]

Great review 👏🏻 I have HDJ 2000 MK2 so was good you compared them both 😀

[@digitaldjtips]

Thanks Jack

[@Djtonydraper]

Nice review. Thanks for posting.

[@digitaldjtips]

Absolutely, thanks for checking it out Tony :)

[@robertomanodepiedranomas4283]

Hi my firend, excellent video. can you help to decide ? audiotech M50X or Pieneer HDJ 10x ?? regards !!.

[@digitaldjtips]

Best to ask a larger group of people Robert, come join our Global DJ Network :)

[@MISTER1710]

Hey, have the headphone a noise cancelling? Thx for your reaction. Grts

[@digitaldjtips]

No, DJs don't tend to use noise cancelling headphones.

[@djdashdfw]

my man joey!!

[@julian__exe]

it´s 2020 now and there are v-moda m-100 master now with hi res audio for 250€

[@outboundflight4455]

Yeah but they say the sound quality on VModa isnt as good as Pioneer. Plus im seeing on Amazon youll have to buy their memory foam XL pads for best comfort cus the stock pads are way too thin.

[@Enzoheavenly]

Bruh! I own the HRM-7 which i love for mixing, do you think these have similar kinda flat sound? (the 2000mk2 were more V shaped) I would like some sort of (headphone) control group and I'm considering these cans

[@digitaldjtips]

No, the HRM-7 have a flatter response compared to the HDJ-X10, which are closer to the HDJ-2000Mk2 :)

[@ChidiChiFries]

Great review

[@digitaldjtips]

Thanks Adolfo

[@teknod16]

Great vid 👍🏽

[@digitaldjtips]

Cheers Danny :)

[@Ethereal1]

Will you review the JBL CLUB one

[@digitaldjtips]

Maybe! Thanks for the suggestion

[@koreanfriedchildren]

But the headphones don't have a D/A converter...

[@marvindresen7644]

This progress is in the Mixer. These are dj ears

[@marcelaelizalde]

Very clear. Thxz

[@digitaldjtips]

No problem, thanks for watching

[@LordMoebius]

How are these holding up after a year of use?

[@AR-fw5bn]

Good

[@outboundflight4455]

Are the pads peeling?

[@tsohgallik]

This video was uploaded in 2017 tho... Why put 2019 in the title?

[@bustinjieber69.]

''VIEWS''

[@iWhy_Music]

What about in comparison to Sennheiser Hd 25 2?

[@digitaldjtips]

They are different - expect fuller, deeper bass with the HDJ-X10C. But that comes at a cost: they're heavier and bulkier than the HD 25 II, which are more comfortable to use for extra-extended periods because they're so light. Also, I just love how timeless the look of the HD 25 is :)

[@iWhy_Music]

@@digitaldjtips Thanks! I've listened the 25th 2, bass is so big)) But luck of mid, I think it could be hard smt to mix HP kicks and like u are using a hi-fi speakers, hard to imagine a deeper and fuller, maybe not that exagerated?)

[@Enzoheavenly]

One more... HDJ-X10 vs HDJ-X10c? Any real difference other than fanciness?

[@digitaldjtips]

It's just a cosmetic / design difference :) kinda like how there are white and platinum versions of CDJs.

[@djdashdfw]

so im guessing they are gonna discontinue the 2000 mk2s...these new x series are ugly as hell

[@macbass1048]

I have the X-10 in black and they are beautiful

[@djoneforever]

If you like to take your 320 kps mp3 file to sound like 96 kps then this headphone is for you. The vintage sound. High price for a shittty sound quality headphone.

[@digitaldjtips]

I might be wrong but I'm sensing you're not a fan of these...

[@djoneforever]

True, im very disappointed with the sound quality. Now, i gotta go purchase a Ultrasone headphone which i had before, which the sound quality is much, much better. I had the Ultrasone 580i. Now im planning to get the Ultrasone 780i or the 900i

[@digitaldjtips]

Fair enough, at least you have something you like :)
