AT FIRST glance, the Audio-Technica ATH-PRO5MK2 DJ Portable Headphones look like any normal headphone set - maybe just a tad cooler with its camouflage pattern.

But when you go into it, the hardware used for the ATH-PRO5MK2 is equally impressive: The driver, which measures a whopping 44mm - as compared to the average 30mm found in other headphones - works together with the powerful 1300mW of input to deliver an impactful sound.

About half the length of the headphone's chord is coiled, making it very elastic. This may not mean much for the daily user, but it is a welcomed addition for DJs, who have to dance around their consoles.

The headphones can be plugged into any 3.5mm jack, found commonly on portable audio devices, or used with a 6.3mm adaptor so DJs can use them with professional equipment.

They can also swivel a full 180 degrees, so that they face outwards for DJs to monitor their content without putting on the headphones over their head.

The ATH-PRO5MK2 delivers more decibels than standard earphones: It can deliver the same loudness on an iPhone at half the maximum volume compared to the standard Apple earphones at full volume.

Overall, the ATH-PRO5MK2 boasts an impressive sound quality, sleek design, and great functionality for both professional DJs and amateur music lovers. If you're looking to step into the groove with a headphone set, you can't go wrong with the Audio-Technica ATH-PRO5MK2 DJ Portable Headphones.

The Audio-Technica ATH-PRO5MK2 is available now at S$128 in three different colours. S SHIVA
