Numark AXIS 9

Advantages: User-Friendly, Easy Loop Features, Holds Pitch
Disadvantages: Takes time to get used to the way the cdj works

...I've had a set of Axis 4's for nearly a year now, been using them to play on radio in that time. Expectations were high of them to be honest and i was impressed on opening the box. The buttons are alot bigger than i thought from the pictures i had seen online. Setting up the cdj's* was a pleasure and both the phono leads and the power cable are designed in a way so that it stays part of the cdj itself and not sticking out the back. The pitch slider is nice and responsive, and seems to hold pitch well even at +16. Changing into search mode on the jogwheel can sometimes be a nightmare and does take a little time to get used to. You have to push the button that skips to the next track down which can sometimes select the next track instead of entering search mode.

Advantages: wires and ear cups can be changed and amazing quality for the price
Disadvantages: ear cups not very comfy and crackles when very loud

...The Numark PHX headphones are ideal for anybody wishing to have high quality headphones without paying a price too high. From my own experience I have found these headphones to be ideal for DJ'ing. For the price they are sold it, the quality of the headphones is very high. A good feature for the Numark headphones is the wires and ear cups, which can be changed. This comes in useful for different situations. The only downside of these headphones is the small crackle when they are pushed to the very top of the sound level.

The only thing I could think of for improvement of these headphones is for the ear cups to be a bit more of a comfy fit to the head... Read review

Advantages: Aesthetically pleasing and incredibly cheap.
Disadvantages: Not the most comfortable headphones in the world, sound is a little bass heavy.

...When I first started out DJing some years back I was a student on an incredibly tight budget; I made sure I bought myself a decent pair of decks that would last a good few years, this therefore meant that I had to compromise in other areas however. When looking for a cheap pair of headphones there are quite a few models out there on the market from various different companies; Numark's HF125 headphones were the ones that caught my eye however and this is a budget pair of entry-level headphones still being bought by many today. When I bought my pair I believe they cost a price of roughly £12, today however they can be picked up from Amazon.co.uk for the mere price of £7.99; an absolute bargain in my opinion and absolutely perfect if you're just starting out as a DJ and looking to purchase a cheap pair of headphones. These are not the best... Read review
