Pioneer has introduced its new HDJ-1000 headphones which, while primarily targeted towards the professional DJ market, will appeal to all serious music consumers, the company says. Pioneer has defined a new standard in distortion-free sound quality with the HDJ-1000 headphones, featuring 3,500 mW of maximum input allowing high sound volume with excellent clarity as the ear pad fully encompasses each ear, fulfilling the demands of those serious about their music. Frequency range is given as 5 to 30,000 Hz.

For comfort, both ear pads have a swivel mechanism allowing the HDJ-1000 to be manipulated to any desired position, while padding makes it possible for music professionals to wear the headphones for hours of listening pleasure. Durability has also been addresses, thanks to the compact folding design, ear pads made of a tear-resistant material and special screws that hold the cord in place, making it simple to replace the cord should the need arise. Additionally, a black vinyl-carrying pouch is supplied to keep the headphones looking like new. With all these features enhancing a product that both looks and sounds great, the HDJ-1000 is undoubtedly set to create a new standard in headphones.
