As a professional DJ, I've heard about the V-Moda headphones for years. I'm not a brand loyalist, but I usually stick to what works best for my setup in terms of accessories. For the past 20 years, I've solely used Sony MDR-7506 and Pioneer HDJ-2000 Pro MK1 headphones. However, the Sony pair began to short out, so I needed another pair to always have a backup available.I chose the V-Moda Crossfade M100 Master after years of hearing positive feedback. They sound better than the two listed previously. The build quality appears to be durable and should last. The only drawback to these headphones is their ear pads. After 30 minutes, they became uncomfortable on my ears. I recently ordered a pair of aftermarket pads that are larger and feature wider foam. If these new pads work out, I will claim to have the perfect pair of cans for my needs.Last thing, it looks like the service of getting customized shields painted or engraved for the headphone plates has been discontinued. However, that's not a big deal breaker.

In short these do sound awesome but are not built to last as they say. Mine lasted 1yr 4months before the plastic clip craked holding the headband to the earphones....buyer beware.
