V-MODA – the brand behind the DJ headphones

The history of V-MODA begins in 2004 in Los Angeles, when DJ and producer Val Kolton was searching for stylish yet high-quality headphones for DJs. The products on the market at the time did not convince him either in terms of sound or design. Inspired by the pulsating nights on Ibiza, he founded Kolton Technology, which was repositioned in 2006 under the name V-MODA. Already with the first product line – available in eleven colors – the brand sold over 33,000 units and laid the foundation for worldwide success.

What makes V-MODA special is the close connection between sound, design, and practical usability. To this day, the company works with its own design studio in Milan, while the technical development takes place in Japan. This combination of Italian creativity and Japanese audio engineering expertise shapes the unmistakable character of the brand. The result: headphones with a clear design language, excellent build quality, and well-thought-out features for professional use.

A milestone in V-MODA’s history was the partnership with Roland in 2016. Three years later, Roland fully acquired the company – granting V-MODA access to new technologies and global resources. Today, V-MODA headphones are established tools in the equipment of many top DJs. They are known for their durability, powerful sound, and ability to reliably perform even in demanding stage environments.

V-MODA M-100 PRO – the all-rounder for professionals

Design and craftsmanship

The V-MODA M-100 PRO was developed from the ground up for professional DJ use. The focus was not only on sound but also on ergonomic craftsmanship. The housing consists of particularly durable materials designed for daily use on stage and tour. The new construction combines a stable frame structure with durable hinges, offering significantly increased robustness compared to previous models.

Particularly practical are the swiveling ear cups, which can flexibly adapt to different monitoring situations. You want to quickly switch between stereo monitoring and one-ear listening or value maximum freedom of movement at the DJ booth – the rotating mechanism makes it possible. In addition, the foldable design takes up little space on the go and fits easily in every DJ bag.

The combination of sturdy construction, compact form factor, and high practicality makes the M-100 PRO a reliable tool for DJs who travel a lot and need to trust their DJ equipment at all times.

Technical features

The M-100 PRO is based on a classic over-ear design that fully encloses the ear and thus provides particularly effective noise isolation – a decisive advantage in loud club environments or on stage. The closed design supports focused sound and prevents interference noises.

Inside, 50 mm large dual-diaphragm drivers operate, equipped with a special ceramic coating and integrated bass channels. This combination provides clear highs, defined mids, and powerful, deep bass – ideal for analyzing kick drums and hi-hats. The frequency range extends from 5 Hz to 40,000 Hz, covering even the finest sound details.

With a sensitivity of 103 ± 3 dB at 1 kHz/1 mW and an impedance of 32 ± 3 ohms, the headphone offers a perfect balance between volume, sound fidelity, and compatibility with DJ equipment. At the mixer, audio interface, or mobile devices – the M-100 PRO always delivers stable performance.

Regarding durability, the model is well equipped: weighing 319 g, it sits comfortably on the head without feeling heavy. The operating range from -10 °C to +50 °C and up to 95% humidity shows that the M-100 PRO reliably functions even under demanding conditions – from open-air festivals to stuffy clubs.

Areas of application

The sound signature of the M-100 PRO is specifically tuned for precise DJ monitoring. Kick drums, hi-hats, and other rhythm-defining elements are reproduced cleanly and powerfully – this facilitates beatmatching and provides confidence when transitioning between tracks. The detailed reproduction supports not only live performances but also preparation in the studio.

Thanks to its linear tuning, the headphone is suitable not only for club and festival appearances but also for production and mixing. Anyone preparing their own sets on the go or working on new tracks in the studio benefits from the wide frequency range and balanced representation of all sound components.

On stage, in the home studio, or during backstage sessions: the M-100 PRO is a versatile partner for anyone who values sound precision and reliable equipment. DJs who regularly work under challenging acoustic conditions make a well-considered choice with this model.

Comfort and accessories

High wearing comfort is essential for long sets. The M-100 PRO relies on soft memory foam ear pads that adapt comfortably to the ear and prevent pressure points even during hours of use. The headband lined with synthetic leather additionally contributes to comfortable fit and evenly distributes weight – a real plus for intensive DJ workdays.

For maximum flexibility in the DJ setup, the headphone offers two different cables: a 1.5 m straight cable for stationary studio use and a 3.0 m coiled cable for live performances with lots of freedom of movement. Both cables are detachable and equipped with a locking system – so the connection stays stable even during hectic movements.

The scope of delivery also includes a sturdy transport pouch, a 6.3 mm jack adapter for connection to professional hardware, a jack protection cap, and a V-MODA logo sticker. A detailed manual is also included – ideal for both beginners and professionals who want to fully exploit the potential of their DJ headphones.

V-MODA M-10 – compact, light, club-ready

Focus on mobility and club use

The V-MODA M-10 was specifically developed for professional DJs who are often on the move and need to rely on their equipment at all times. It adopts the proven design elements of the larger M-100 PRO but implements them in a significantly more compact and lighter form. This makes the M-10 perfectly suited to the demands of mobile use – in hectic club operations, on tour, or at spontaneous gigs. Weighing only 275 g, the headphone is a real lightweight without compromising on sound quality or build quality.

The robust metal frame ensures high durability, even with intensive use on the road or in tight club environments. The closed design supports effective noise isolation, enabling focused work even in loud surroundings – a clear advantage for anyone who wants to mix or beatmatch their tracks precisely.

Special attention was paid to wearing comfort: the generous memory foam ear pads fit comfortably around the ears and ensure fatigue-free wearing even during long sessions. DJs who commute between locations or move a lot during their sets benefit from the thoughtful design and comfortable fit. The M-10 is thus the ideal choice for anyone looking for a lightweight, club-ready headphone with high mobility and professional sound performance.

Sound characteristics

The built-in 50 mm dual-diaphragm drivers of the V-MODA M-10 deliver a detailed, spatial sound image with high dynamics. Deep basses are reproduced with noticeable pressure, while mids are clear and highs appear crystal clear – ideal for precise evaluation of beat-based tracks in the club.

The M-10 was specially developed for electronic music genres and is sonically tuned to powerful kick drums, crisp snares, and brilliant hi-hats. This makes it particularly suitable for DJs who value exact beatmatching and clean separation of frequencies.

Thanks to the closed design, the M-10 offers excellent external noise isolation, enabling focused listening even at high levels. In loud club environments or when performing at open-air festivals – the M-10 ensures stable and interference-free playback.

Technical data

The V-MODA M-10 is a professional over-ear headphone designed for maximum sound quality and mobility. Due to its closed over-ear design, it completely encloses the ear and provides excellent passive noise isolation – perfect for club environments or mobile DJ sets.

Powerful 50 mm dual-diaphragm drivers inside cover a particularly wide frequency range – from a solid 5 Hz to a brilliant 40,000 Hz. This guarantees finely resolved, powerful playback across the entire audible spectrum – ideal for precise beatmatching and monitoring.

With a sensitivity of 102 ± 3 dB at 1 kHz / 1 mW, the headphone also delivers sufficient volume with mobile players. The impedance of 32 ohms ensures the M-10 is compatible with almost all common DJ and audio sources – from DJ mixers through audio interfaces to smartphones.

With its compact dimensions (210 W × 140 D × 85 H mm) and a weight of only 275 g, the M-10 is also particularly easy to transport and comfortable to wear – even for many hours.

Areas of application

The V-MODA M-10 was specially designed for mobile use in professional DJ environments. It is aimed at club DJs, live performers, and event technicians who need a light yet powerful headphone for flexible use. Especially in situations where space and weight are decisive factors – such as air travel, festival tours, or short club gigs – the M-10 shows its strengths.

Thanks to its excellent external noise reduction, the M-10 is ideal for monitoring in loud environments. In heavily sound-filled club areas, directly next to the PA or in hectic backstage situations – the M-10 provides clear, focused sound without distraction from ambient noise. Also in mobile streaming or vlogging, the M-10 is a sensible choice due to its compact design and linear sound reproduction.

Last but not least, technicians and event staff benefit from the robust and portable design, which allows quick setup and reliable monitoring at events. The M-10 is thus a versatile tool for anyone who needs to rely on their DJ equipment in every environment.

Comfort and accessories

The V-MODA M-10 convinces not only sonically but also with its thoughtful wearing comfort and practical equipment. The soft memory foam ear pads fit comfortably around the ear shape and reduce pressure points – ideal for long sessions in the club or on the go. The padded headband with synthetic leather cover ensures even weight distribution on the head and significantly increases overall comfort.

The package includes two different, interchangeable cable variants: a compact, straight cable for mobile use and a longer coiled cable for more freedom of movement while performing. Both cables are equipped with a sturdy locking mechanism that prevents accidental unplugging during the gig – an important detail for professional DJ setups.

For safe transport, the M-10 comes with a sturdy, space-saving transport pouch that reliably protects the headphone from dust and damage. A gold-plated 6.3 mm jack adapter ensures maximum compatibility with DJ equipment. The accessory package is rounded off by a V-MODA sticker and a detailed manual – optimal for beginners and professionals who want to exploit the full potential of the M-10.
