Things that enrich our lives.

It seems to be the very foundation of DJ culture. Would you recommend this model for enjoying records at home?
MURO:Of course. I also play records at home, and my children are interested in watching them, and my cat comes over when I start playing (laughs). (Laughs.) It is something that enriches our lives in that way. It is also enjoyable enough as a simple listening device.
Do you feel that you don't have to have a mixer at home?
MURO:If you want to create your own original sound sources in the future, two turntables and a mixer will be very important. In my case, I grew up in an era when DJ mixing was very popular, so I was always fascinated by the fact that the sound never stopped. That's one reason why I still want to keep the sounds connected.

Today we also had you try out the Technics EAH-DJ1200 DJ monitoring headphones. How did you like them?
MURO:It looks matte black like the SL-1200MK7, so there is a sense of unity. The housing has the same design as the turntable, and that's what struck me the most. Since it is an on-ear type that does not wrap around the ear, it seems to be easy to use in the field, considering that you can listen to music in one ear in a jiffy.

MURO: What do you look for when selecting headphones?
MURO:It's toughness, after all. In the field, sweat and alcohol can cause rapid wear and tear, so the padding and other parts are quickly ruined. However, the EAH-DJ1200 has a synthetic leather neck and ear pads that are resistant to deterioration from moisture. I felt the evolution of the EAH-DJ1200 was also apparent, and I felt a sense of newness that is only possible nowadays.
The price range is under 10,000 yen including tax, and I think it is also good that it is easy to purchase.
MURO:Yes, I agree. Inevitably, DJs have a faster replacement cycle than regular listeners. They are also consumable items, so I think many people will appreciate that as well.
