Full review of the V-MODA Crossfade M-100 Master headphones, now with upgraded driver and comfort—ideal for DJs and audiophiles seeking true clarity, isolation, and style.
Introduction
V-MODA’s Crossfade M-100 headphones are famed among DJs. The latest Master edition pushes comfort, isolation, and audio fidelity even further—making them a compelling option for demanding users.
Build & Comfort
The steel flex headband and vegan leather pads are designed for maximum comfort. Memory foam ear cushions now come standard, ensuring all-night wear—tested successfully on marathon flights and extended club sessions.
Sound Quality
New 50mm drivers, 32-ohm impedance, and copper-clad aluminum wiring deliver crisp lows, rich mids, and, most notably, exceptionally clear highs. High-resolution audio certification means these headphones can reveal track distortion missed by others—ideal for set refinement and production.
DJ-Ready Features
The headphones fold for travel, include a protective exoskeleton case, and ship with two cables: the SpeakEasy (with call controls for phones/games) and SharePlay (for daisy-chaining audio to other DJs). Both left/right cups work for cable placement, and a daisy-chain option lets friends or colleagues monitor a mix in parallel.
Highly customizable shields—laser-etch, color print, or precious metal—let DJs personalize their look. Attention to unboxing and build quality adds to the premium feel.
Verdict
At $250, the Crossfade M-100 Master delivers exceptional sound, durability, comfort, and style for DJs, producers, and audiophiles. If you want headphones that reveal sonic details and stand out, these are some of the best you’ll find.
