they sounded a bit nicer.. not much difference though

i like them alot more for the design, they dont skip.. which is a major problem i had with ortofons.. and also if u happen to slip and knock the needle off the vinyl (which i have done plenty of times)the stylus itself wont actually catch the side of the platter whereas the ortofons will and in most cases will snap.

believe me when i say the whitelabels sure do take the punishment.. ive dropped them knocked them u name it ive done it and they just dont break!
much stronger than the ortofons which i had to replace 3 times in the same amount of time ive had the whitelabels which i havent had to replace yet!

Ok i rang up CSR and One Stop Dj and they told me the following prices

CSR - SHURE WHITELABELS = $400 pair
One Stop - SHURE WHITELABELS = $480

CSR - PIONEER HDJ1000 = Not in stock :p
One Stop - PIONEER HDJ1000 = $269

are they decent prices or can cheaper be found?

One Stop are doing a sale on this week too.

btw i forgot to ask, are the HDJ1000 good in blocking external sounds?

EDIT: Just by looking at Robs, Andrews and escees prices, i think something is wrong lol...did they increase their prices, damn.

HD-25s rock! I have used many a pair of headphones and nothing even comes close to these. But of course, it is a matter of personal opinion of how tight you want them to sit and how much external noise you want to kill. Many people actually do not like them :crazy: said people are crazy!


If you can, test drive a few different pairs of headphones before you splurge.
