Just curious if any one is using these and might want to drop some feedback. There the Seinheiser HD -25-l ll . I would use them strictly for production purposes, no vocals!!

I think they're better as dj headphones... try look for some AKG or BeyerDynamics...

theyre really clean sounding, but lack a certain punch in bass, well made, the only thing is that eventually the cushioning will start to break down, and i dont mean the ear pads. The bass thing isnt an issue cuz the sound is just so clear.

do you guy's actually have them? I just bought them anyway's, but Patricks post is kinda making me feel uneasy. There is 2 very similar models, and yes one is more catered to dj'ing and the ones I got more for studio monitoring. Are you guy's happy with them?

I'm more of a Sony MDR 7506 guy... (10+ years, 2 pairs)

They're great headphones for DJing , tight closed cups, strong, sturdy, every part is replaceable and very loud. Ive had my pair for 7 years without anything going wrong but I wouldnt recommend them as studio headphones. Too bass heavy and will get hot & sweaty when used for long periods imo.

My mate swears by his Sennheiser HD650s for producing although they're open backed and wont be any use if you're intending on using them in a club/loud space plus they're almost £200

I also swear by my Sennheiser HD650s for producing. i got Sony MDR-700 for DJ use, i tried using them for production and they are rubbish. After owning the HD650s for over 18 months i would never recommend DJ headphones for production.
