HD25: Recently researched, bought, am happy. In OP's price budget. Great sound isolation. No bluetooth, but latency isn't really a gift.
r/Beatmatch • Best headphones for DJing? ->I still have the pair of RP-DJ1210 I bought in 1998/99, but much prefer HD-25 with Yaxi TypeB pads, both for comfort and sound. Clean, crisp and punchy. I like them so much that I got the Amperiors and HD-25 Aluminium too.

r/DJs • Best DJ headphones for mixing at home (club feel, not studio flat)? ->Hey mate Im in Australia, paid $400 for a mould and custom etymotic band earplugs and are amazing, spend the money and don't look back. I have been wearing baby blues for over 15 years now when I'm not djing and now wear these custom plugs when I'm djing and absolutely no issues. I got the -9db and -15db and the -15 are spot on as you don't feel like you're isolated from the room at all and can hear everything and keep the top end. I still have my hd25's that are 20 years old now. New foams and still original cord.
r/Beatmatch • Headphones?? ->HD 25's are the industry standard. They are the best.
r/musicproduction • What headphones are good for mixing? ->I got hd25s on recommendation from this sub. They sound good but they have terrible isolation. If I want to play music loud in my home setup I have to crank the hd25s higher than I'd ideally like to. This is more of an on-ear Vs over-ear complaint, not a knock against the 25s. Just worth pointing out because they seem to be the go-to recommendation here and I think this is a glaring weakness in them as headphones for DJing
r/DJs • Best DJ headphones for mixing at home (club feel, not studio flat)? ->Personal choice. That said Headphones made for a specific genre of music sound like a bad gimmick to me. I go for studio cans myself. I use beyerdynamic dt770 pros at home and sennheisher hd25s when I am walking around.
r/heavymetal • Best headphones for heavy metal? ->My Grado SR225's left ear stopped working but gonna try fixing by replacing the jack end of the cable. Thankfully I got some Sennheiser HD25's to keep me going
r/pcmasterrace • Another „Gaming Headset“ bites the dust, tired of overpriced/hyped headphones. ->You know I'm just being silly, I forgot Sennheiser made HD25 and I have a pair myself! But yes, I know they are pretty much industry standard at this point and I know why.
r/Beatmatch • How do y'all hear anything through the headphones while the speakers are blasting? ->Jet the Hd25’s plus a set of aftermarket ear pads for added comfort.
r/Beatmatch • Best headphones for DJing? ->You want something that lasts? HD-25s. The Klashnikov of the audio world.
r/pcmasterrace • Another „Gaming Headset“ bites the dust, tired of overpriced/hyped headphones. ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
