"A well made product that should give years of service with reasonable care"
I will use these headphones until either I or they give out. If they are stolem or lost, I will probably replace them with identical ones. If they break, I will likely try something else.
Sound
The sound quality is as good as any headphones I have ever heard. The Highs are clean and there is good low response. These headphones are louder than all my other headphones at the same volume setting.
Features
The stereo/mono switch is a must for my use. I would like these phones better if they had a detachable cord and larger ear cups. For the price, Pioneer could include a storage/carry bag. I really like the rotating and folding ear pieces.
Quality
I only had these for about six months. I use them every day and have experienced no problems. All Pioneer products that I have owned were High Quality; one of the reasons I selected these headphones. I like the heavy duty cord
Value
Considering the Quality, I think the price is about right.
Manufacturer Support
I can't honestly rate how good support is having never had to use it.

"Can't go wrong with these Cans."
Great Cans.
Quality
These phones are top notch I've abused these phones for about a decade and they haven't blown. I loaned a pair to a professional recording studio where they were chewed on by a small dog! Still work perfectly! These are the only phones I will ever use for my Mobile DJ business. Bullet proof Cans with silky sound what more could you want?
Value
About the same price as many other High-end brand name headphones. Just much more reliable.
Manufacturer Support
Never had to call support because product never breaks.

"Best Bang 4 Ya Bucks! 12/21/08"
I bought a second pair a week ago! I chose these over the Sony 700's and the newer Pioneer DJ headphones! The pair I had for 8 years finally started to crack around the top, easy fix with some tape and they were shorting out at the plug, not an easy fix but I fixed them for less that five bucks, with a replacement plug from and audio store, and they still look and sound GREAT!! Other headphones i've had have completely broken and been discarded after they stopped working.
Sound
The sound quality of the phones is great! My older pair, over 8 years old, still sound as good as they did when I got them!
Features
Pioneer put more consideration for the user into this pair of headphones than any of the competition! The belt clip, the stereo mono switch, shoulder pad, 1/8th / 1/4th inch plug and folding design are are all wonderful features and only about half of these features are given by other companies with comparable headphones. Even Pioneer does not offer those features in their recent models; i.e. the belt clip and shoulder pad.
Ease of Use
These headphones configure several different ways! You can wear them how ever you need to depending on the application or situation. Some people find them difficult to manipulate, but once you know them they are easy to use!
Quality
I have been producing and DJing for well over 10 years now and I have owned a pair of these headphones for the majority of my career. I have also owned headphones buy Sony and Fostex as well as other companies. These, the Pioneer se-dj5000's, are the only pair that were able to physically withstand over 7 years of use without breaking.
Value
These are the absolute best value! Old School Quality and Value in a Solid Product!!!!
Manufacturer Support
Didn't need support for this product!
