HDJ-X5-K Pioneer - Professional Over-Ear Black DJ Headphone

The HDJ-X5 headphone inherits the high-quality audio design from the HDJ-X7, ensuring you always get a clear monitoring sound, even at high volumes.

No matter how you prefer to wear your headphones, you can wear all HDJ-X models comfortably for extended periods thanks to the flexible rotation mechanism and the housing developed with input from professional DJs. They are also designed to be highly robust, and all models have passed both the MIL-STD-810G shock test⁴ – a test that all equipment for the US military must withstand – and our own rigorous durability tests.

The HDJ-X5 headphone features new 40 mm drivers with a copper-clad aluminium wire (CCAW) voice coil. The magnetic circuit has been optimised, and thanks to the fine sound suppression and extensive tuning, you can enjoy clear, distortion-free sound during monitoring.

The independent ground wire in the 4-core twisted cable ensures superior separation between the left and right channels, resulting in better sound quality. In addition, the HDJ-X10 model is also equipped with a highly reliable, detachable mini-XLR connector for outstanding sound quality.

The bass reflex chamber at the top of the housing guarantees excellent bass response and sound isolation.

Superior durability

You can take the HDJ-X headphones anywhere, with full confidence that they can handle demanding conditions and heavy use effortlessly. Every model has passed both the US military MIL-STD-810G shock test and our own rigorous stress tests.  

Suitable for all monitoring styles

During the development of each new product, we create numerous prototypes, each time incorporating new improvements based on feedback from professional DJs who test our products. Using that feedback and the results of our analysis of many different monitoring styles, we have been able to ensure that the HDJ-X headphones are always comfortable to wear, regardless of how you wear them. The housing design reduces pressure on your head and features a textured exterior that improves grip, so you can quickly grab them and start listening.

A comfortable and flexible headband

To help you find the perfect fit, the HDJ-X headphones are equipped with a flexible, durable headband. They have passed our rigorous test – in which they are opened and closed 20,000 times – and are therefore built for intensive use.  

Features inherited from the HDJ-2000 models

The HDJ-X headphones are the successors to the HDJ-2000 models and have inherited several popular professional features from their predecessors, such as their flexible rotation mechanism for comfortable monitoring, regardless of how you prefer to wear them. 

The HDJ-X5 comes with a compact carrying pouch that fits snugly around the folded headphone, saving space in your luggage and reducing the risk of damage in transit.

The HDJ-X5 comes with a short coiled cable of 1.2 m (approximately 1.8 m extended length) that is ideal for both DJ performances and listening to music at home. The L-shaped mini-jack prevents the connection from being accidentally disconnected during a performance, even in a tight booth.
