DJ Headphones Designed by DJs

Designed with input from professional DJs, the Pioneer DJ HDJ-X7-K headphones will serve you well in any live performance application. Claiming an ultra-wide frequency range, HDJ-X7-K DJ headphones allow you hear deep into your mixes — even at high volume levels. The nano-coated leather ear pads and headband cushion shrug off sweat and grime. And these headphones are built extremely rugged, even clearing the US Military Standard Shock Test. Complete with a carrying pouch and spare cable, the Pioneer DJ HDJ-X7-K DJ headphones are ready to perform.

Advanced drivers for accurate, extended monitoring

Pioneer DJ's HDJ-X7-K headphones deliver a frequency response ranging from an ultra-low 5Hz to an ultra-high 30kHz. When you're commanding a powerful PA system, you need accurate monitoring that lets you hear everything from the lowest bass to the highest treble frequencies. Performing DJs at Sweetwater can confirm the HDJ-X7-K headphones deliver the sonic range you need to make critical mix decisions on the fly.

Built to handle abuse

You'll find metal parts for all the moving mechanisms in the Pioneer DJ HDJ-X7-K headphones, a sure sign of a rugged design. In fact, these headphones were even subjected to the US Military's shock testing procedures (MIL-STD-810G) and passed with flying colors. You can expect a long lifespan and reliable performance from these headphones, even if you're performing every night.

Nano-coated materials resist deterioration

The leather earcups and headband cushion on the HDJ-X7-K headphones are nano-coated to resist sweat and grime and are easy to wipe clean. The nano coating helps prevent deterioration in general, so you can expect these headphones to hold up years longer than those with untreated materials.

Shockingly good bass and midrange performance for the money

For $ I was very impressed with just how well these handle the midrange and bass. Very crisp and clear.

Replacement needed 6 yrs later.

Going on the 4th set of these iconic cans. Mine have been loved and look too raggedy. My LG V30 can push these hard. Was recently on a 9 hr flight. All the Bluetooth ppl freaked out. I'm still dropping the thundering base. I use them for my telemedicine business.
Music background: Since age 4. I am friends with Spinnin label music artists in Chicago. Sometimes paid pro dancer for gigs.

Great for my dual keyboard workstations!

I've been a long time user of the Audio-Technica phones, primarily the ATH-M50X's - have two of them for recording and for my basses/effects pedals. They are great phones in their own right, but I also have two Korg workstations hooked up via a Mix-5 mixer for dual, independent controlling. Some of the synth bass and vintage rezo type programs are sonically very potent and can challenge even the best of phones. So I asked my go to guy Cameron for some advice and he recommended the HDJ-X7's. Yeah, these are exactly what I needed - they go all the way down to 5HZ, which as Cameron pointed out, human hearing caps at about 20hz. However, the seem to provide a bit more headroom in the bass range and are just what the doctor ordered. I will say that the 50X's are probably slightly more transparent and sonically clearer in the mid to upper frequency range, but the X7's provide a bit more of a consistent flat range from the overall spectrum from bass to treble, if that makes sense - JMO. They're both great sets of phones in their own right. But these are really comfortable, and thanks to Cameron and Sweetwater for their excellent service, as usual! Oh, just one minor little complaint, I wish the cords they provide are longer - only 5'2" and 3'9" - with my keyboards and stands, maybe a 10' would be better. The 50X's come with that length, but no biggie, it still works, a bit tight with the stretching, maybe I'll explore getting a longer one, if compatible. But yeah, these are really good headphones!!

Killer headphones for my specific need

I use phones, in particular the Audo Technica ATH-50X' primarily for audio inter-face recording, bass guitars with multi-effects pedals, and my synth workstations, plus the usual music listening. As good as the 50X's are, I felt like I needed a set with a bit more of a lower end bass response and capability for the two synth workstations, a Korg Karma and Korg TR, which are combined with a Mix-5, five channel mixer to independently sync the two together, so I get separate sounds from each via the phones. These are both high level, older monster synths, which can really pump out a ton of sonic input, in particular with the rezo, Oberheim type bass patches, and other pads which can really put phones to the test. My buddy Cameron at Sweetwater recommended the HDJX7K's to me, and as he put it, " the human hearing range is 20Hz to 20kHz, the HD's go down to 5Hz, which some would say wouldn't make a difference, but at that little but of lower end, it allows for the lowest end to breathe more as there's just a bit more headroom." I couldn't have said it any better, and it makes perfect sense. So, my initial reaction after plugging these in was WOW! Holy smokes, yes, I can tell the difference. especially at the low end! The first thing I had to do was to turn down the master volumes on the synths at least by a quarter, that's how loud these are. So how would I compare these to the ATH-50X's? First of all, I love the ATH-50X's, I own two of them, and I've purchased the same for my kids for music instrumentation as well. I will say this, and this is very picky and subjective, but to me, the ATH-50X's have a bit more of a transparency with the mid's to high's, maybe a bit more sparkly and crisp, and it puts out nice bass as well. With the HDJK, I'm hearing what I'd call more of a consistency with the overall flat range from low's to high's with the "extended bass headroom," as Cameron put it. Hope this makes sense. They are very powerful and sonically excellent! I'm so glad I purchased these for my keys. Thanks to Cameron for his usual stellar recommendations!!
