Closed-back Circumaural DJ Headphones with 50mm Drivers, with 5Hz-30kHz Frequency Range, Detachable Cable, and Carry Pouch - Silver
This is a seller’s market for this listing at US$239. Against your comp set, that sits well above the 75th percentile of US$185 and roughly US$108 over the median US$131, so it reads ambitious rather than fair-value.
The upside is that this line is generally respected for sturdy build quality, punchy bass, and strong isolation, which is exactly why good-condition used pairs still attract buyers. If it’s genuinely clean, complete, and from an owner who kept the pads and cable in order, it can still make sense for someone who wants a reliable club-style monitor—but at US$239, I’d want unusually strong condition or included extras to justify the premium.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Pioneer traces its roots to 1937 in Tokyo, Japan, when founder Nozomu Matsumoto, inspired by the thrill of imported hi-fi speakers, developed the A-8 dynamic speaker and launched a radio and speaker repair shop. The business formalized as Fukuin Shokai Denki Seisakusho in 1938, evolving into Pioneer Corporation and embodying Matsumoto's philosophy of "Move the Heart and Touch the Soul" through audio innovation.
The brand excels across diverse hi-fi categories, pioneering Japan's first headphones in 1960 with the SE-1 and the world's first component-based stereo system in 1965 via the PSC-5A. Pioneer's portfolio spans amplifiers, speakers, turntables, and DACs, alongside landmark car audio advancements like the 1975 Supertuner-equipped stereo and the 1986 in-car CD player, blending home and automotive excellence.
Today, Pioneer holds a commanding mid-to-high-tier position in the market, revered for reliable, performance-driven gear that balances premium quality with accessibility. Its vintage components attract collectors, while current offerings appeal to discerning buyers seeking robust, innovative sound reproduction without boutique excess.
