Pioneer HDJ-X10-S Professional DJ Headphone, Silver, (HDJX10S)

Product Information

The bass boost seems to start at around 80hz and continue around 100hx, extending into the mid-range. This will be an appealing option for people who use a lot of electronic music, hip-hop, and pop music in their mixes. Pioneer DJ released a full series of headphones with the HDJ-X10. The HDJ-X series include the X5, X7, and X10. Pioneer designed these headsets to replace the last line of HDJ models. Probably one of the biggest differences between the Pioneer DJ HDJ-X10 and the items that came before it is the extremely wide soundstage that you get with this new investment. Pioneer recommends items like the CDJ-2000NXS2 for this, but you can look around to find out what works best for your kit.

When I pull the HDJ-X10 headphones out of the box I notice right away the durable carrying case. It feels like it could survive being thrown around in a tour bus or van and I’m immediately impressed with it. As I open the case, I get my first sighting of the HDJ-X10 headphones. They have a utilitarian look but incorporate textural details on the earcup, giving it an intentionally mechanical feel. I like the look overall. I was initially not a fan of the predominantly plastic build, thinking they made the headphones feel cheap and flimsy. After a month of stress-testing, I was proven wrong – these things are quite sturdy, at least as far as DJ headphones go, and the light weight makes the headphones bearable even for marathon sets. Sound The HDJ-X10 headphones are equipped with our new 50-mm high definition driver, making them the world's first DJ headphones to reproduce high-resolution sound from 5 Hz to 40 kHz. The direct drive structure, with a newly developed diaphragm shape and voice coil, delivers high quality sound without loss of quality due to mechanic loss. First headphones in the world to reproduce frequencies from 5 Hz to 40 kHz in the DJ headphones market (according to research conducted by Pioneer DJ Corporation Ltd, 21st August 2017). From a treble perspective, the HDJ-X10 DJ headphones have a fantastic and modern sound. There’s a lot of crisp focus in the higher frequencies, which is excellent for those who need to keep a tight focus on every sound.

The lower frequencies get a lot more attention here, making it easier to pinpoint specific beats when you’re mixing. Although certain features, like the access to Hi-Res sound, might not seem particularly important, they’re definitely nice to have. It’s also worth remembering that there’s more to the HDJ-X10 DJ headphones than novelty features. Stay on top of your game with the flagship HDJ-X10 over-ear headphones. Refined with input from professional DJs to serve you at festivals, clubs and everywhere in between, they’ll change the way you experience music. Producing high-resolution sound ranging from 5 Hz to 40 kHz thanks to a new 50mm driver, they’re ideal for DJ monitoring, delivering clear left and right channel separation as well as greater separation of rich bass tones and crisp mid to high frequencies. The earcups have a rubber ring around them for an easier grip, and the lower half of the cups also have the same rubber grip. These are so the headphones don’t slip when you’re monitoring with one cup on your shoulder, which I think is a nice touch. I do prefer the sleek, simplified look of the HDJ-2000MK2, though.

Durable metal is used in the moving parts of both the HDJ-X10 and the HDJ-X7 headphones to create a strong construction. In a general sense, the Pioneer HDJ-X10 headphones have a very modern sound. There is a boost around 12kHz that gives the high frequencies a particular crispness. The high frequencies have space and air which I think pushes these headphones into a higher quality of headphone overall. Sound Stage
