Looking for vintage cans

[SFaudio]

Hey all! Seeking advice on what kind of vintage cans I might want to look at using. I DJ a couple times a month, all vinyl, all 70's, kinda want vintage headphones to complete the look.
Quick browse last night showed a lot of different kinds of Pioneers for what seemed to be reasonable prices. There's a bunch of different kinds to choose from. The bars are pretty loud, I don't need the super fidelity of modern studio headphones, but good sound would be nice. There's just so much to choose from on FleaBay.
I have a pair of Realistic Custom Pros, they were decent but they are now broken.
Just looking for any advice, experiences, whatever.
Cheers!

This may be too late now, but, I really like the Pioneers SE-50's I got a few years back. Sounds very nice. Now, they are kind of heavy so for DJ'ing, that may not work. But they do sound good and are built like tanks

I have a couple sets of SE-50 and was going to suggest them.

PM if interested.

I used the AKG 240 Sextet back in the mid-70's and wish I still had them. They rocked, and could play at the nightclub volume level without breaking up. I used them for recording work back in the day. I would highty recommend them.

i like the Pioneer suggestions, I am on the look out for a pair the one record store in town here has a pair of those on their listening station I like them...

also the Koss 4AA's can be had fairly inexpensively and apparently Koss will refurb them for $8 ~ or something like that.. (see other threads here about that).

Headphone technology has progressed so far in the past forty years. Why not go best of both worlds and get modern headphones with a vintage aesthetic? There's quite a few of them available.
