beyerdynamic Unveils a New Era of DJ Monitoring

On October 22, 2025, German audio specialist beyerdynamic introduced a groundbreaking new headphone series for DJs at the Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE). The DJ 300 PRO X line, featuring the minimalist DJ 300 PRO X and the striking DJ 300 PRO X CLUB models, brings a versatile 2-in-1 design to the professional audio market.

The 2-in-1 Innovation: On-Ear and Over-Ear in a Single Headphone

The standout feature of the DJ 300 PRO X series is its modular ear cup system. DJs can effortlessly switch between two distinct monitoring styles:

  • Over-Ear: Provides maximum sound isolation, ideal for loud club environments where blocking out external noise is critical for precise beatmatching.
  • On-Ear: Offers a more open feel, allowing DJs to maintain a better connection to the ambient sound of the room and the audience, which is perfect for smaller venues or longer sets.

This is achieved through a secure magnetic locking mechanism that allows for a quick swap of the earpads. Both on-ear and over-ear pad sets are included with the headphones, giving users immediate access to both configurations right out of the box.

Two Models, Two Distinct Styles

While both headphones in the series share the same core audio technology, they are designed to suit different aesthetic preferences.

  • DJ 300 PRO X: This model features a sleek, all-black matte finish for a professional and understated look. It ships with a straight, detachable mini-XLR cable.
  • DJ 300 PRO X CLUB: Aimed at DJs who want to make a statement, this version boasts eye-catching silver accents and a more reflective finish on the ear cups. It includes a coiled mini-XLR cable, a classic choice for DJ booth performance.

Professional Performance and Customization

Beneath the surface, both models are powered by beyerdynamic's acclaimed STELLAR.45 drivers, known for delivering a precise and powerful sound signature across a wide frequency range (5 Hz to 35 kHz). With an impedance of 48 ohms, they are efficient enough to be driven by a wide array of DJ mixers and controllers.

Furthering their appeal to professional users, the headphones feature customizable outer ear cup plates. This allows DJs, venues, or brands to add their own logos for a unique visual identity, a feature that sets them apart in a crowded market.

Pricing and Availability

The beyerdynamic DJ 300 PRO X and DJ 300 PRO X CLUB were made available for purchase starting on their launch day, October 22, 2025. Both models were introduced at a recommended retail price of €199.00, positioning them as a competitive option for professional and aspiring DJs seeking both high-quality audio and unprecedented flexibility.
