A lower priced version of the V700, the Sony MDR-V500 DJ headphones still offer ok sound and stong construction. The earpieces on the MDR-V500 DJ headphones are smaller than those on the V700, but the 40mm drivers still have good output. They also come with a folding design and a coiled cord all at a competitive price.
I’m not so sure about that solid construction, I had mine for a year and the right earpiece broke of making it unusable to use any further for spinning out. The plastic construction between earpiece and headrest are too fragile imho. Sound quality is ok, though not the greatest. Also the isolating material on the inside starts drying out after a while, so the cushion pops out and wears off.
