00:00This product was very kindly sent in for free of charge by the manufacturer.
00:04No money's changed hands, they haven't asked me to say anything in particular.
00:07I'm simply sharing with you my opinion after using these for a few weeks
00:10so that you can make an informed buying decision.
00:13These are the Pioneer DJ HDJ-Q1
00:17and they're the Bluetooth version of these really good headphones.
00:22They come supplied in this box here.
00:24Picture of the product on the front, some little tiny icons across the bottom,
00:28some nice artwork on the side
00:31and then on this side here we've got some of the main features.
00:36High quality sounds mentioned, they're nice and durable.
00:40We've got a flexible monitoring style so you can rotate the earcups.
00:44I'll show you that in a short while.
00:45You can also use them wired or wireless
00:48and you've got up to 30 hours of battery life between charges.
00:53They're also a foldable design
00:55and the actual model number on these ones is the HDJ-Q1BT.
01:00The case stands for black.
01:02On the back here we've got some of the main specifications.
01:06We have got the fact that these use Bluetooth version 5.
01:10SBC and AAC codecs are compatible.
01:14The 30 hour battery life and that's approximately so up to 30 hours.
01:18They're a closed dynamic headphone with a 5 hertz to 30,000 hertz response
01:24and they weigh 250 grams without the cable.
01:29Now also of note you can get some optional colour customisation add-ons.
01:35You can buy these different coloured pads.
01:36They come with a matching cable.
01:38Nice if you want to personalise your headphones.
01:42They also come with a really cool cable.
01:44Nice coiled cable which I'll show you very shortly.
01:46So inside the box we get a quick start guide,
01:50instruction manual and some extra regulatory paperwork.
01:53Then we get a couple of cables.
01:55This one here is quite simply for charging the headphones.
01:59USB to micro USB.
02:01We get the audio cable.
02:03So this is a part coiled cable.
02:05Really important that this is part coiled.
02:08On this end here we've got the straight connector.
02:11This goes into the headphones themselves.
02:12It's got a little sort of locking mechanism on it.
02:15We've got the coiled part just here.
02:17Now when it's in its compact form it's 1.2 metres long.
02:21When you stretch the coil out you can get up to 1.8 metres away from your equipment.
02:26Really important if you're moving around maybe your turntables, mixing desk for example.
02:31And you need that freedom of movement.
02:33And then this end here, this is a right angled connector and you've also got a thread just
02:40here as well.
02:41So it's 3.5 millimetres but you can of course adapt this up to 6.35 millimetres.
02:47And I would have expected to see the adapter inside the box but there's no adapter.
02:51So if you want to change the size of this you'll need to purchase that separately.
02:57So nice quality cable included.
03:00And then we've got the headphones themselves in this nice stealthy black colourway.
03:04All black, all over.
03:06Looks really very, very nice.
03:08We've got some Pioneer DJ branding on the top here.
03:12We've got a little bit of padding on the underside.
03:15Would have liked to have seen a little bit more.
03:16But it's still ample, it's still very comfortable.
03:19The padding on the earcups is exceptional.
03:22Really very nice.
03:24Don't forget these are removable.
03:25So if you use them a lot and you get some wear and tear you can replace them.
03:30Or indeed if you do want to customise them you can purchase those optional colours.
03:35We've obviously got some rotation on all axis.
03:38And these also fold up so they're nice and compact for travelling with.
03:42As with all headphones we've got some extension on both sides for adjusting the size.
03:49They are nice and comfortable.
03:51Really lightweight especially considering this has got wireless technology inside as well.
03:57Now if we take a look at one of the earcups.
03:59We've got the input there for that 3.5mm cable.
04:03We've also got the charging port just here.
04:07And then we've got some power and control buttons for the volume on this side.
04:11So you can use them wired or wireless.
04:14Now when you're using them wired.
04:17Very very good audio quality.
04:19Nice deep bass.
04:20Really well controlled bass as well.
04:23Exceptional detail in the mid-tones and higher frequencies.
04:27And they just sound awesome.
04:28These are workhorse headphones.
04:31They really can take a lot of use.
04:34I love the fact also that you can of course replace the earpads.
04:38Now in wireless mode I wouldn't necessarily use them in wireless mode if you are doing some sort of performance, mixing or an event.
04:49But if you're just sort of sitting back listening to some music, relaxing.
04:53Then of course using them wirelessly is much more convenient.
04:56And I've found the wireless connectivity to be extremely good.
05:01And not much degradation in audio quality either.
05:05Yes, the audio does drop off if you try and go out of range.
05:09You've got that Bluetooth limitation of range between this and the device you're listening to.
05:14But if you stick with these close to the device, you get a nice stable connection and a really good audio quality in wireless mode as well.
05:22The battery life is pretty decent considering how lightweight these are and how compact they are.
05:28So can I recommend them?
05:29Definitely can.
05:30They're a superb pair of headphones and they look the part and sound awesome as well.
