Pioneer
HDJ-500 Professional DJ headphones are designed for
exceptional fidelity, style, comfort and
affordability. These headphones provide maximum
performance and versatility for any type of use, from
DJing to casual listening.
Refined Design
The
HDJ-500 DJ headphones adapt the styling and
performance cues of Pioneer's top-of-the-line HDJ-2000
headphones. Designed with maximum comfort and
reliability in mind, the HDJ-500 uses comfortable
urethane pads for the ears that allow the headphones
to mold around the user's head and ears for a snug and
slip-resistant fit. Furthermore, the urethane pads are
wrapped in great quality leather, providing greater
feel and extended comfort. The main structure of the
headphones is crafted of magnesium alloy for light
weight and durability, making them great for travel
and long periods of use.
The Sound Difference
Pioneer
HDJ500 features stylish design matched with great
sound quality providing clear audio reproduction,
especially in the critical low and mid frequency
ranges that are key for remixing. By combining 40 mm
diameter drivers, thick 19 µm (micrometers) diaphragm
and a copper clad aluminum wire (CCAW) voice coil, the
headphones can efficiently reproduce the lower
frequency audio range. Snare and kick drum sounds are
more clear making it easier for even the most novice
DJs to match the tempo of tracks.
Versatility
For
maximum flexibility during performances, the HDJ-500
features a rotating arm structure that allows the user
to rotate the right earpiece forward and back by as
much as 60 degrees. At that position, the flexible
headband maintains enough side pressure to allow the
DJ to listen to audio on just one side of the
headphones.
The
HDJ500 includes two interchangeable cords providing
freedom of movement during performances. The
traditional 1.2 meter coiled cord (extends to 3m) is
perfect for regular DJ performances, while the 1 meter
straight cord is ideal for leisure listening.
