Hi I’m just starting out got the DDJ-400 with rekordbok and wanting to know how to transfer music from a usb to rekordbox,PLEASE HELP STRUGGLING HERE THANKS 🌈
Seeing a lot of comments saying the HD-25 is also modular. As a HD-25 user myself you'll never hear me put the headphone down, however they are more repairable than modular. You can't swap the headband for a different design or change the sound of the headphone with a new cup for example. That's where the TMA-2 design shines, if that's what you're after of corse!
Sennheiser actually has different qualities of cups in their confusing HD-25 lineup and you can eat your heart out with their headbands designs if you go to their website. You're right though that repairable is probably a better word than modular and this is how you really use the HD-25. But that goes for the AIAIAI TMA-2 as well. Modularity is not a thing in reality. It suggests that you swap around different parts for different uses regularly which no DJ/producer does. If anything, the AIAIAI TMA-2 is more customizable when you buy one but that's nothing more than a hollow marketing concept. Sennheiser and other DJ/producer brands offer a zillion different headphones for different uses as well in their line up and with many of these you can buy parts when they break.
@@Drrolfski Sennheiser doesn't make it obvious though that they're "modular" or that you can mix and match any of the parts. TMA-2 pushed this as their core idea at least when I bought mine. The idea being you could have like your really bassy soundscape with certain speakers and earpads while having a completely different sound with a different set. They kind of pushed the idea that you could swap it out for different listening experiences. Sure its not how most people use it but honestly I've used the modular aspect to build up to my current set of headphones as AIAIAI released better parts. Upgraded my headband when they released their bluetooth version. Upgraded speakers and earpads later on because they came out with better ones later. Effectively that means I bought a whole new pair over time but I really like their overall quality and customer support so I'm good with that.
Hands down these headphones should be the standard for any techno/house dj who doesnt wanna spend crazy $. Theyre eco friendly, stylish, sound great and MODULAR. I can't express how important this is, no more repairing entire headphones or having to buy a whole new pair if something breaks, you can just replace the individual part thats broken and you can even have multiple parts for different uses, today i wanna use them for dj use, no problem, studio use, no problem, thats genius. I first bought a pair of AIAIAI TMA-1 Studios back in 2015 and Nicole Moudaber was the first dj i notice using them and i was sold. They still work to this day and ive added 3 new pairs of TMA-2 to my collection, theyre amazing.
HD-25 are awesome although i switched to the TMA-2 because the hinge on the Sennheisers annoyed me a bit :D But that's just personal preference i guess.
I like the philosophy behind these headphones but I certainly won't give up my Sehhheiser HD 25 II for it. Which is as modular as you need it, packs a superior, neutral sound, and doesn't suffer from excessive sound leaking.
I’ve used both and the aiaiais are hands down the most comfortable headphones i’ve used, and better sound isolation compared to the hd25s, but it all comes down to personal preferences
TMA-2 DJ preset are a little misunderstood I think. If you're looking for listening headphones they're not good but they're really intended to reduce harsh upper frequencies that can cause ear fatigue and ringing, whilst beat matching. I do find them a little too muddy sometimes, but I've gotten use to it & i'm thankful at the end of the night. My HD-25 are more natural, but my ears suffer for it. Tough one.
I use the DJ preset for mixing since 2 years, and I have to say, there are no better headphones for playing in a loud club! They are quiet comfortable as well during long sessions. But I would never listen to music with the SO2 speakers. Therefore I want to purchase a second pair for production and casual use during Black Friday, they give you 30% on everything on their website
Thanks for the tip on the speaker units! I got the deviation collab when I first started playing clubs in 2018 and have used them ever since. The headband snapped though and was really on the fence between getting the DJ preset or the studio preset with hopes of using it at the club and at home.
I was very excited to order a pair of custom spec with bluetooth headband so that I could have the practicality for travel and pop the cable in when I get to the booth. First, they took ages to arrive. When they did arrive, the bluetooth headband (the main point I tried these for) didn't work. Customer service was very slow. They finally sent me a replacement headband but my overall experience was not good. One other thing I noticed is that wind noise is quite loud with these. Maybe related to the sound bleed through you mentioned but I find it annoyingly excessive with wind noise coming in when I am out walking with these on. HD-25 are still worlds better in my opinion though they don't offer the same modularity nor bluetooth.
Dude, beats headphones were also seen on influential people, didnt make them good!! Personally Id take yours and Jamies opinion over whos wearing them! In my opinion, the materials are very budget and dont match the price tag and the audio quality isnt anything special on the ones ive heard. Ill take the HD25s or M100. :-)
6-7 years ago everyone was saying how great V-Moda M100 is and I bought one based on the reviews. These were the shittiest headphones I have ever had! (I didn’t like the sound, they broke 1 month after I got them, signs of wear in a few months... just awful for this price). So thanks for the „review“. I will stick to brands that I thrust like Sennheiser and Pioneer.
ich hab die Kopfhörer jetzt seit einigen Monaten, aber was ich nie in Testberichten oder Kommentaren gelesen habe, das wenn man mal die Ohrmuscheln etwas andrückt bzw beim Auflegen etwas fester ans Ohr macht, dass der Sound sehr flach/leise wird. komisch, ist das bei euch auch so oder ist das von aiaiai so gewollt??? wäre echt schön wenn mir da jemand antworten könnte.. I've had the headphones for a few months now, but what I've never read in test reports or comments is that if you press the ear cups a little or put them on the ear a little tighter, the sound becomes very flat/quiet. funny, is that the case with you too or is that what aiaiai wanted??? it would be really nice if someone could answer me.
I wonder if one could get the wireless headband, and as it terminates in a coupe of 3.5mm connectors, convert ANY headphones to wireless (with some modding to have 3.5mm jacks in each cup)...
Hope you guys see this, I know you guys recommend the s05 drivers, the main thing I’ve seen about the S02 is that they can sound “muddy” but I’ve seen a lot of DJs say these “save” their ears because when turn up in volume in loud clubs they don’t hurt your ears with the high frequencies after hours of DJing and cueing tracks, any input on this before I order a set?
If you're just using the headphones to beat match, having a bass heavy speaker like that does help DJ hear the kicks at lower volumes. However if you want to blend and monitor the sound and EQ in the headphone, we'd recommend getting a driver with a flatter response.
I owned a pair briefly and couldn’t get them to fit my head. The sizing notches on the sides are so far apart that they could only be adjusted to be too tight or too loose. Haven’t had that problem with any other pair of headphones 🤷♂️
I'm looking for a headphone that has a good bass and is more flexible on the strap, unfortunately my last ones broke on the strap, so it needs to be a good one, more flexible, durable. This headphone is so flexible?? durable??
I'm looking to replace my 9 year old HD25s. Great headphones but seen better days. I'm really torn with the Tma-2 DJ preset and if they would be too bass heavy and loss of clarity. I only DJ at home and also use headphones on the PC. I'm leaning towards the beyerdynamic dt770 pro 80ohm as a multi purpose but not sure if they would be a good choice for beat mixing. I can't make a decision.
I had my Sennheiser HD25 for years and now I wanted a better sound alternative and bought the Pioneer HDJ X10, im really impressed, direct comparison to my senns, they are funnier and excited to DJ with. I cant really hear that "tack tack" when a track is not 100% beatmatched and the bass is completely separated with enorm wider stereo image. The senns are now very boring for me.
I have used these headphones for a year and a half and for me they are fine, they do their job, excellent isolation as you say in the video, I particularly do beatmatching and everything else I do listening to the monitors because I don't like having a lot of time for the health of my hearing. Being modular is what caught my attention, I like them, I consider them a good purchase for dj. For another type of need, they should choose the speaker that suits their needs
My left ear side where i plug into makes a squeaky plastic like noise i can hear loud enough while some music playing. Plug into either ear is cool. I have tma 2 dj config. I hope the movement in ear caused by movement lessens...fyi...i can live with it and hopefullu wear in better over time to not make noise in my ear silent audio muted which has been annoying. The snapping headband clicking i can live with for now. Got them with a code for 140.00
@@FoxRiverTaxiGraveYard yeah mine still does it it has got worse lol. For DJing they are perfect you don’t hear them so much obviously but for using to just listen to music it is very annoying
I really like mine AIAIAIA headphones... (I sometimes forget I got them on :)))) Because of the no cables, to engangle with! :) I just tog the studio version from the website! :) They sound great! :)
HD25 best headphones to have if you’re a DJ That thing is made to last year’s Mine after a year it sounds and it looks just like it did when I purchased
I've bought the move wireless and instantaneously sent them back, they have mushy mids and highs and a waaay over pronounced lows. It goes as far that I think I got a broken unit. Really love the concept, but hate the sound
You didnt review the main reason for these builds..the wireless djing using the transmitter/receiver. as they claim to have the best latency in the business at 0.1 something milliseconds
Bought the DJ set after 15 years with my HD25.. mixed once and sold them... bass too heavy (d&b) and sounded muddy.. so back to HD25... dont even know why i strayed in the 1st place.. 😂 these are like beats for dj 👎
Pay famous people to wear these "fashion" headphones and passes that marketing cost on to consumers in combination with cheap materials. It happened the same with Beats headphones. Those were rubbish, but since famous people were wearing them... People thought they could be good even if those were used by football players. If the HD25s are used over the years as reference headphones by Djs and professionals at the studios for instance, there must be a reason. For the unpaid Djs, it would be a good question to ask, Why are not they wearing the TMA-2? If you value the aesthetics over sound quality it is absolutely respectable. Cheers
Hd25s are good, not great though. Do high end people actually use them? I figured regular people loved them because they sound good and aren’t super expensive. My Pioneer HDJX-10s sound infinitely better. But they’re over twice the price so it’s not really fair to compare them. I get the cost difference being a factor, but if a person has the money I see no reason to get the hd25 over the Pioneers.
Ive got a set of the TMA 2 HD's full top spec ones (Wireless, Alcantara etc.) but managed to get them with 30% off (wouldn't have paid the full whack!). absolutely love them, use them all day at work for listening and video calls etc. work great, and for DJ'ing and production these have been incredible! only downside i have with them is that the Alcantara material on the headcup has come loose which is annoying but a little bit of adhesive will fix them if AIAIAI wont send me a replacement etc.
Sick review! I needed to hear that about the SO2 vs. SO5 speaker units. Been using AIAIAIs DJ configuration for years now but always feel like I'm missing something with clarity (bass is so good but TOO good making it muddy at times) so it forces you to boost the volume to hear what you want to hear (dangerously high for my ear health) So yeah... gonna have to try the SO5 speaker units or its back to the drawing board deciding between a pair of Pioneer HDJ-X7s/HDJ-CXs or (of course) HD-25s
Stay on HD25. I fell in love with AIAIAI due to sexxy outfit, until I took them home. The Studio XE sound is thin, not suitable for DJing. The DJ series and the Comfort with the S04 drivers are boomy, bassy with uncontrolled low frequencies. It all has a barrel sound, with bad mids and highs. Does anyone in the factory listen to these at all? This brand is overhyped. Huge disappointment, i got back to hd25.
Hi, In July 2019, we refined the TMA-2 coating process for superior finish quality. Utilizing ASTM G154 lab testing on all coated parts of the TMA-2 Modular System, we've ensured the quality and reliability of the coating. Moreover, the application process is now automated at our production facility, maintaining consistent and optimal coating application.
Reading all the sound specs on their website, they are really quite poor. For me, Custom in-ear monitors are the way forward for DJ's. I love mine. And DT770's for studio listening. They are so comfortable you can wear them all day. Hence they are the worlds biggest selling Headphone. And every single part is replaceable. And just £130 !.
Hd 25 all the way.. unless sometimes that the bass acumulate at the booth need the extra bass for something like tma 2dj,, find yourself turn on the volume in order to hear just the track ..but this i s fault sound check most of the time ,thats why at old times dj was in a small room..big up .a non paid dj ..Hd 25 save your money taking the best.
I was really surprised about the muddy sound of the DJ-Preset. You really cant' use this configuration for anything else than DJing/Beatmatching. Thanks for the clarification!
they absolutely are 👍🏻 i bougt mine with the s02 unit for djing two years ago and they are great for using them in clubs. i also bought the s05 unit for producing one month ago and i can totally agree with this video. they are amazing in highs and mids 🫱🏻🫲🏼
Im also rocking the TMA-2s i got the special edition ones with deviation they look really good and sound really good but they headband could be a little more comfortable then again they have better options for that
PSA: HORRIBLY LOUD HISS AND CLIPPING!!! Most reviews won't talk about as they are paid shills by AIAIAI!!! Everyone and their nana and even doggo is blessing these cans to Valhalla tho the hissing is super fucking loud and can be annoying. Like an built in white noise feature. On max. volume on them the hiss is way too loud! Pushing the Volumedown button 6 times makes it almost inaudible tho then the cans are too quiet. Really gone is the hiss firsif you press the Volumedown button 8 times tho then again are the cans waaaay too quiet!! Using an amp to power the cans is also not great as they start to be clipping really bad relly soon!!! No one was reporting on this. Tho no wonder if AIAIAI gives those cans to ppl to 'test/review' aka do lazy marketing... One Love! Always forward, never ever backward!! ☀️☀️☀️ 💚💛❤️ 🙏🏿🙏🙏🏼
@@n3phalem754 Nope they sound great with cable. This guys going around and shitting on AIAIAI because the wireless system doesnt do the same as wired. Yes there is a compromise but its worth it as nothing else out there does wireless low latency like these. Set the headphones up and the hiss is low on wireless.
I will stick with my ATH-m50x any day. I like the try to make them environmentally-friendly but noch much else. They do too much marketing with big DJs and it shows in the price. For that money I can even get myself studio headphones (like beyerdynamic or audio technica) AND some smaller headphones for Djing. Also for 300 bucks those should come assembled. Sorry to say that but being able to customize is no excuse to ship them in pieces. Especially since they come packaged separately instead of one thing in one bag. -> They call that environmentally friendly. excuse me wtf. That said I like to try out headphones myself and did not meet someone yet that got them. Thats mainly because I wear glasses and headphones should work with that. Maybe these are indeed a great product but the marketing is really bad imho.
This MUST be a Sponsorship but crossfader didnt make that clear at the start. Im not going to watch this until someone replies to tell me they said whether this is paid sponsorship or not. TBClear, Im OK with paid sponsorships but when they are packaged as product reviews that undermines the credibility of the channel. Just be upfront with your audience, we want you to be sucessful.
@@Crossfader Thank You clarifying. Now that took the time to clarify I would be happy to delete my comment if you like? or leave it up with your reply. Looking forward to watching the rest of the video.
Look cheap and nasty to me. Environmentally friendly made in China and brought to the UK on a slow boat with an enormous carbon footprint. Surely making making them in country would be better. Find it amusing that world famous DJs try to make statements about the environment just after they've been flown to a gig on a private jet.

True. Plot twist: they're modular as well
can you upgrade the hd25's or just replace them with the same?
@@kyleantioquia2954 there are upgrade components and theres some custom parts too

tma 2 vs pioneer hdj 1000 ( i know old ) im in the market for a new headset my last one was hdj 1000s i liked the sound from them
Had 2 pairs of the Fool's Gold special editions snap on me, returned to my HD25's and haven't looked back again.
Both Holland and Jamie also had headbands snap on early models of TMA-1's. We're glad to say there's no issue now with the TMA-2 bands that we tested
These comments...
Being advertised by famous people does not mean that they're secretly bad.
They sound fantastic.
MF DOOM used them a lot apparently...
And madlib
Idk why they would use it if ot sucked haha
They are good lol
Get the DJ Preset + additional E08 ear pads so you cover DJing and music production.
They are probably on the heads of these DJ's because the company payed them to wear them

Own TMA2 best buy ever! Superior sound quality, beat Pioneers crappy headphones! My backup is V-Moda.

Think I'll stick with my HD25
they really don’t understand beat matching then, what is need is more of a flat sound
Ive got a set of the TMA 2 HD's full top spec ones (Wireless, Alcantara etc.) but managed to get them with 30% off (wouldn't have paid the full whack!). absolutely love them, use them all day at work for listening and video calls etc. work great, and for DJ'ing and production these have been incredible!
only downside i have with them is that the Alcantara material on the headcup has come loose which is annoying but a little bit of adhesive will fix them if AIAIAI wont send me a replacement etc.
Sick review! I needed to hear that about the SO2 vs. SO5 speaker units. Been using AIAIAIs DJ configuration for years now but always feel like I'm missing something with clarity (bass is so good but TOO good making it muddy at times) so it forces you to boost the volume to hear what you want to hear (dangerously high for my ear health)
So yeah... gonna have to try the SO5 speaker units or its back to the drawing board deciding between a pair of Pioneer HDJ-X7s/HDJ-CXs or (of course) HD-25s
Stay on HD25. I fell in love with AIAIAI due to sexxy outfit, until I took them home. The Studio XE sound is thin, not suitable for DJing. The DJ series and the Comfort with the S04 drivers are boomy, bassy with uncontrolled low frequencies. It all has a barrel sound, with bad mids and highs. Does anyone in the factory listen to these at all? This brand is overhyped. Huge disappointment, i got back to hd25.
Please tell me more about the flexibility, thank you.
maybe post the link to where i can buy in the description and not random ass shit
nice review!
Thanks!
C’est vraiment le jour et la nuit entre les capsules s02 et s05.
Moi mon choix et parti sur le TMA - 2 HD.
The soft touch rubber coating degrades over time and becomes unbearably sticky. I spent hours removing coating, sanding and repainting.
Hi, In July 2019, we refined the TMA-2 coating process for superior finish quality. Utilizing ASTM G154 lab testing on all coated parts of the TMA-2 Modular System, we've ensured the quality and reliability of the coating. Moreover, the application process is now automated at our production facility, maintaining consistent and optimal coating application.
You should do a give away
Good review.
Thanks!
Reading all the sound specs on their website, they are really quite poor. For me, Custom in-ear monitors are the way forward for DJ's. I love mine. And DT770's for studio listening. They are so comfortable you can wear them all day. Hence they are the worlds biggest selling Headphone. And every single part is replaceable. And just £130 !.
but try getting bluetooth into them...
HOW DO THEY SOUND ????????????????????
Hd 25 all the way.. unless sometimes that the bass acumulate at the booth need the extra bass for something like tma 2dj,, find yourself turn on the volume in order to hear just the track ..but this i s fault sound check most of the time ,thats why at old times dj was in a small room..big up .a non paid dj ..Hd 25 save your money taking the best.

I was really surprised about the muddy sound of the DJ-Preset. You really cant' use this configuration for anything else than DJing/Beatmatching. Thanks for the clarification!
But is it good enough if you only use it for djing?
they absolutely are 👍🏻
i bougt mine with the s02 unit for djing two years ago and they are great for using them in clubs.
i also bought the s05 unit for producing one month ago and i can totally agree with this video.
they are amazing in highs and mids 🫱🏻🫲🏼
I like vintage headphones.
_Talks_ about the headphones, but doesn't _demo_ the headphones. Waste of time.
SO5 are muddy AF too. SO4 the winner but AIAIAI don't make them anymore.
That would be a perfect dejay headphones 🎧 birthday present
hi, the cheap Behringer dj headphones of my daughter sounds better. hd25 all the way. Well i use more my dj rp 1200 (love history).
Haytch Dee. Sounds like cool hwip
Im also rocking the TMA-2s i got the special edition ones with deviation they look really good and sound really good but they headband could be a little more comfortable then again they have better options for that
I’ll stick with my 25s thanks

PSA: HORRIBLY LOUD HISS AND CLIPPING!!! Most reviews won't talk about as they are paid shills by AIAIAI!!!
Everyone and their nana and even doggo is blessing these cans to Valhalla tho the hissing is super fucking loud and can be annoying. Like an built in white noise feature.
On max. volume on them the hiss is way too loud!
Pushing the Volumedown button 6 times makes it almost inaudible tho then the cans are too quiet. Really gone is the hiss firsif you press the Volumedown button 8 times tho then again are the cans waaaay too quiet!!
Using an amp to power the cans is also not great as they start to be clipping really bad relly soon!!!
No one was reporting on this. Tho no wonder if AIAIAI gives those cans to ppl to 'test/review' aka do lazy marketing...
One Love!
Always forward, never ever backward!!

🙏🏿🙏🙏🏼
Even if you connect them by cable?
@@n3phalem754 Nope they sound great with cable. This guys going around and shitting on AIAIAI because the wireless system doesnt do the same as wired. Yes there is a compromise but its worth it as nothing else out there does wireless low latency like these. Set the headphones up and the hiss is low on wireless.

I will stick with my ATH-m50x any day.
I like the try to make them environmentally-friendly but noch much else. They do too much marketing with big DJs and it shows in the price. For that money I can even get myself studio headphones (like beyerdynamic or audio technica) AND some smaller headphones for Djing. Also for 300 bucks those should come assembled. Sorry to say that but being able to customize is no excuse to ship them in pieces. Especially since they come packaged separately instead of one thing in one bag. -> They call that environmentally friendly. excuse me wtf.
That said I like to try out headphones myself and did not meet someone yet that got them. Thats mainly because I wear glasses and headphones should work with that. Maybe these are indeed a great product but the marketing is really bad imho.

what they have in common? they are all sponsored by AIAIAI. lmao.
overpriced though i love it

These headphones are very muffled.
HD25 all day long...
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
This MUST be a Sponsorship but crossfader didnt make that clear at the start. Im not going to watch this until someone replies to tell me they said whether this is paid sponsorship or not.
TBClear, Im OK with paid sponsorships but when they are packaged as product reviews that undermines the credibility of the channel. Just be upfront with your audience, we want you to be sucessful.
Not a sponsorship, we don't do paid reviews. These are our honest views on the product.
@@Crossfader Thank You clarifying. Now that took the time to clarify I would be happy to delete my comment if you like? or leave it up with your reply.
Looking forward to watching the rest of the video.

Look cheap and nasty to me. Environmentally friendly made in China and brought to the UK on a slow boat with an enormous carbon footprint. Surely making making them in country would be better. Find it amusing that world famous DJs try to make statements about the environment just after they've been flown to a gig on a private jet.
