For those new to SonicLink, the technology is “engineered specifically for professional DJs to deliver wireless audio seamlessly to your ears”. SonicLink transmits sound with just 9 milliseconds of latency – 20 times faster than the commonly used Bluetooth SBC codec – enabling accurate monitoring and mixing. All you have to do is connect the dedicated HP-TX01 transmitter (sold separately) to a DJ mixer, and you’re ready to go.
As far as sound quality is concerned, “you’ll hear everything loud and clear” when using the HDJ-F10, says AlphaTheta. The all-new 40mm driver features a PEEK-PU-PEEK composite film diaphragm made from two different materials, delivering a high-resolution sound across a wide range of frequencies.
Not only do the headphones provide high-quality sound reproduction at high volumes, they also feature all-new earpads and housing structures that offer superb sound insulation, surpassing even the Pioneer DDJ flagship HDJ-X10 model. All this means you can now monitor crisp, punchy kick sounds, even while in a noisy DJ booth.
And with the inclusion of Active Noise Cancelling and Transparency modes, it’s easy to switch between your music and outside conversations as and when you like.

AlphaTheta’s new flagship headphones are also built to withstand life on the road. They’re highly durable, having passed the stringent US Military Standard MIL-STD-810g shock test so you can enjoy lasting durability.
As for battery life, a full charge on the HDJ-F10 gives you up to 30 hours of playback when using Bluetooth, or 9 hours of use when SonicLink is engaged. You can also play your set with a wired connection using the included cable.
The HDJ-F10 professional wireless DJ headphones is priced at $389 excluding tax, while the HP-TX01 transmitter will cost you $129 excluding tax. The full set is available at $499.
