HDJ 2000 Music to Our Ears?
WCDJ's just got a pair of these, after a long, sometimes frustrating stint with the HDJ 1000's. With a graveyard full of snapped bands, broken connections, and fractured ear modules, will these be as "indestructible" as claimed? We shall see. All we can say for now is- so far, so good. What we do like:
1) stronger metal sockets, with smoother and more flexible swivel motion
2) detachable mini-XLR
3) a more balanced audio quality (better suited for studio than it's predecessor)
4) Increased comfort, due to increased flexibility
5) less plastic, more metal for sturdiness
At a costly retail price of up to $399, we're expecting a LOT more than the 1000's delivered. But, at about $150-$200 a pop, it was a sad, sad, day when each of them were laid to rest! Let's hope this pair lives long and prospers.
