I have used the Sennheisers and thought they sounded great.  I also used the
AKG headset with the condenser element (sorry, I don't remember the model
number) and sounded extremely good, though not as much low end as the
C-4500B-BC.  Carefully positioning the mic boom is necessary to avoid
p-popping,.  I don't have any experience with the dynamic version of this
headset.  But, if you can break DJ's habit of needing a big fat mic in front
of their face, they may eventually appreciate the ability to move around all
over the room and never once get off-mic.

Anyone have any suggestions?
