NO INTENTION TO BUY THIS. IT IS NOT MY TARGET FIRSTLY. BUT SUDDENLY FOUND IT IS IN DISCOUNT. A VERY GOOD PRICE, NT$4000. IT IS ALMOST HALF PRICE OF THE ORIGINAL. ULTRASONE PRICES ARE QUITE EXPENSIVE IN HONGKONG. ALSO, AFTER READING A HK BROTHER'S COMMENT SO GOT IT NOW. DISCOUNTED PRICE WON'T LAST LONG AND ALMOST ALL DISCOUNTED GOODS GONE. BUT FINALLY GOT ONE.
B4, I TRIED HEARING ONE OR TWO MODELS OF ULTRAZONE BUT DIDN'T LIKE IT TOO MUCH. OF COURSE, THE PRICE IS ONE OF THE FACTORS I HAVE NO INTEREST IN IT.
FIRST LISTENING, THE SOUND IS TIGHT AND CONGESTED. BUT QUITE TRANSPARENT. SO I LEFT IT TO RUN IN FOR 24 HOURS.
I WON'T GIVE A FULL REPORT BECAUSE USUALLY I PLAY TRACKS OF DIFFERENT STYLES AND LISTEN THEN JUMP TO ANOTHER. I USE PC AS SOURCE (ITUNE) SO IT IS EASY TO CHANGE TRACKS.
I SUMMARIZE THE COMMENTS AS FOLLOW :
1. SOUND STAGE - I AM SURPRISED THE SOUND STAGE IS GOOD FOR A CLOSED TYPE CAN. NOT SURE ANY OTHER CLOSED TYPE CANS. BUT THIS ONE, IT IS REALLY GOOD.
2. SEPARATION IS GOOD ALSO, CAN CLEARLY HEAR INSTRUMENTS EVEN IN ROCKS.
3. BALANCE SOUND, NEUTRAL
4. VOCAL IS GOOD BUT NOT THAT KIND LIKE SHURE SRH840. FEMALE VOCAL IS BETTER THAN MALE BUT I DON'T MEAN MALE VOCAL IS NOT GOOD. BUT IT IS NOT THAT KIND OF THICK MALE VOCAL.
5. HIGH EXTENDS VERY GOOD. FOR SOME PEOPLE LIKE HIGH, IT WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.
6. BASS IS IN GOOD QUALITY, NOT BOOMING AT ALL. I AM NOT A BASS FREAK BUT I LIKE GOOD QUALITY BASS. THIS ONE CAN GIVE YOU THIS. U CAN FEEL DRUMS "JUMP". B4, I AM QUITE AFRAID TO TRY SO-CALL 'DJ' HEADPHONES BECAUSE I AM AFRAID THE BOOMING BASS WILL KILL ME. BUT I AM SURE THIS ONE WILL NOT, IT IS DEEP BUT NO BOOMING AT ALL.
OVER ALL, THIS ONE IS A VERY HIGH STANDARD HEADPHONE. IT IS LIGHTER THAN SRH840 AND QUITE COMFORTABLE TO WEAR. SOUND ISOLATION IS NOT VERY GOOD, U CAN HEAR SOUND FROM OUTSIDE.
I REALLY LIKE WHAT ULTRASONE HAVE DONE TO THE PACKAGING OF DJ1 PRO. IT INCLUDES
1. A VERY NICE LOOKING AND QUALITY CARRYING BOX FOR THE HEADPHONE. THE OTHER HEADPHONE SHOULD LEARN FROM THIS. SOME VERY HIGH PRICE HEADPHONE, THERE IS NOTHING INCLUDED.
2. A SECOND CORD.
3. A PAIR OF SPARE EAR PADS.
4. A DEMO CD.
SORRY, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO UPLOAD PHOTOS. I WILL DO IT LATER IF I CAN.
