Great for the money. Clever cable.
In brief: For the price they are pretty good. Loud enough, comfortable and versatile. Clever cabling/connection options, decent sound for DJ or casual listening applications. Recommended for the budget conscious or those that want a backup pair of inexpensive full size cans that work well. In not quite so brief... Let's be realistic. The high street prices for these are under £30 and on ebay it's even less, delivered, so don't expect Sennheiser/Pioneer beating sound or build quality. But that doesn't mean they aren't good in their own ways. These are fairly large, mostly plastic, headphones. While that does keep them fairly light the flipside is that they may not stand rough treatment or live as long as some more premium/pricier alternatives. The full size over ear housings aren't hugely deep, so if your ears are like a sports trophy they'll likely contact the inside of the earphones. Up to you whether that is bearable or an instant no-no. The cushioning is adequate and they don't squeeze viciously, extended use shouldn't present any issues, They are actually pretty comfortable. Isolation from external sound isn't brilliant, but good enough. The 50mm drivers and "tuning" of them means they are somewhat bass-happy. Not bad presentation, but a bit "loose". Definitely not monitoring/production type cans. Stick to what they are badged as, DJ or casual listening headphones. They are not too tough to drive. You can get decent volume and sound with a smart phone / tablet but that is usually at near maximum levels of the phone. Through a DJ audio interface or the club mixer / home stereo headphone output they are plenty loud enough and the sound quality benefits from having something with a bit more puff behind it than the average phone or tablet does (obvs). A great feature is the cable. Decent length with a coiled section to it but, cleverly, it has full size jack one end and standard phone/ipod size minijack the other. Just flip the cable around, depending on what size connection your audio source has, and the other goes into the left or right earcup on the headphones. No more frantically asking if anyone has a minijack to full size headphone adaptor you can borrow 5 minutes before your'e supposed to start playing to your adoring public assembled on the dancefloor. A side benefit of the cable connections on the headphones is that you can share your music with someone when you're on the bus/train/your private jet. They can plug their standard minijack into the socket on your headphones and benefit from your clearly excellent musical taste... or suffer it. I'd like to see KitSound offer replacement cables as an option on it's website. I looked but didn't see, but I may be wrong. Cables, in general, don't last forever and detachable ones, like this, can get misplaced. I think their design is smart and would prefer to be able to get an OEM replacement rather than a fudge of an adaptor or having to make my own cable up. These headphones got me out of a pinch after my regular, far more expensive, DJ cans decided to get temperamental and I needed something for a 2.5 hour set in a club. Overall very pleasing for the money.

Great for cueing up the next track, probably not for extended listening
They do feel and sound a bit cheap but they are cheap and punch above their weight i think. I just wanted a cheap pair of headphones with rotatable and foldable cups to use with my DJ controller so I can easily use them over one ear and for that they're perfect, better than more expensive and better sounding alternatives. Don't think I'd want to use them for extended listening but for the purpose i chose them, they are fine and certainly great value!

Great sound, well made and very comfortable
These headphones have a great depth of sound are very comfortable and well made, best headphones I’ve had so far. The detachable cable is ( 3.5mm /6.3mm plug ) is a great feature if ever you damage the cable you can replace it. I noticed someone saying there was no left or right marked on them, but there is on the inside above the speakers... not easy to see mind, left speaker is the 6.3mm socket side. The buddy jack feature is cool too so another person can plug into your headphones. They are fantastic for the money even if you pay the full retail price of £30. I paid £15 absolute bargain!!

It
Very good design, because the cups are able to swivel they can be used as desk top speakers. Great sound, good base, in my opinion and tested against some top brands just as good.

Brilliant Headphones.
These headphones are fantastic and i strongly advise every one who is a seriious music listener to buy a pair to day while they are being sold so cheaply. These headphones can easily compete with any of the top name brands costing 8 times as much.

Well worth the money.
Excellent in every aspect except its admittedly professional use of a ¼" stereo jack plug to attach its lead to the phones. Not needed nowadays, and a bit clumsy, still, professional, as I say. Good sound, first class noise insulation, comfortable and high dB/Watt efficiency, so recommended. It should be noted, the earcups appear not to be marked L + R, and for best comfort and proper ear cup swivel, the cable in usually needs to be on the Right.

Good quality item and worth the price
So far i like it the sound quality is good and it cancels out about 70% of the noise so most people in public can't hear your music unless they're close to you. It has a little weight to it and after wearing for a while makes my ears sore but i'm sure i'll adjust them to fix that. it's fairly comfortable to wear.

Most versatile and best value budget stereo headphones I have seen.
These Kitsound DJ2 over ear headphones are truly great value. They have 50mm drivers when most others have 40mm as standard, which gives good sound quality and nice base response. They swivel for single ear use when mixing as a DJ and are comfortable to wear. The lead is long, but has a tightly coiled extending section which helps keep it neat and tidy. The most inovative factor, however, is the clever connection idea. The headphone wire has a 3.5mm connector one end and a 6.3mm connect the other end, for connection to standard 1/4" jacks on record decks, etc. But here is the clever idea - one earpiece has a 3.5mm socket but the other has a 6.3mm socket. This enables either end of the cable to be used at the headphones, as they only need one wire to plug into the headset, not two. This has the added bonus of being able to connect a second set of headphones for sharing or training purposes. What a great idea, and you can plug directly into any smart phone with a 3.5mm socket. I prefer wired over wireless, simply to avoid yet another device to have to recharge regularly.
