Pioneer DJ’s flagship headphones get a carbon fibre upgrade

The limited edition Pioneer DJ HDJ-X10C headphones are out now

Pioneer DJ has upgraded its flagship HDJ-X10 headphones with a carbon fibre makeover.

1000 sets of the limited edition HDJ-X10C headphones are available now, priced at £539. Enhancements have been made to the design of the popular model, which offer crisp audio quality and a hard-wearing, comfortable fit.

Carbon fibre used in the housings improves the vibration attenuation. Metal front plates on the housings gives the headphones additional vibration reduction, and a metal mesh grille on the front of the driver achieves greater sound reproduction accuracy.

The straight cable has been made more durable with a coating of tough aramid, and an extended 3-year warranty guarantees long-term performance.
