Pro Dj Accessories: Choosing Headphones

Of all the pro DJ accessories you can choose, headphones are arguably the most important

. A great pair of headphones is going to matter when you are making mixes at home and playing them back at a club or other event. A poor pair of headphones can mean distorted sound, wrong pitch or even just terrible volume control. You also don't want to choose something that is ill fitting and uncomfortable. Choosing headphones, as with any other pro DJ accessories, is a task that should take some time and patience.

Comfort is the easiest decision to make when looking at a variety of features. You can take any pair of headphones, try them on and discern their comfort level to you. You might want to go with a pair with extra padding in the ears or headband or just a pair that can adjust properly to your head. That itself can be a headache, literally and figuratively. Make sure the band doesn't chafe or catch, or that it isn't pulling your hair this way or that.

Closed back headphones are great choice for pro DJ accessories, because they have a solid rather than open casing on the ear pieces. What does this mean for you? Well, it keeps in sound and isolates it from the surrounding background noise. That is going to be key, especially when you are performing in a public event space.

You also want to make sure your headphones are loud enough. Clubs are very loud places and you need to be able to counteract that. Every pair of headphones has different volume spans and some even have their own adjustments so that not only can you maximize the audio of your equipment, but then further maximize it on your pair of headphones. You need to do everything you can to drown out the sound around you so you can make sure your music is just right, to give an optimal experience to the guests there listening and dancing.

Go for pricier headphones. When it comes to pro DJ accessories as a whole, you want items that will withstand use. Cheap headphones can and will break easily and probably while you are heading to your next gig. Put in the money for a better pair. It is that piece that you want to make sure you put some extra investment into because it's going to be a major component of all your shows. In fact, if you find a pair you truly love, sometimes it is smart to get two, just in case.
