Headphones

Open Back headphones
They are designed to give you a more speaker-like experience, ideal for studio monitoring or for simply listening to tracks. They allow for some of the sound to leak and some ambient noise to seep in, creating an illusion of distance from the sound source.

Closed Back headphones
Closed Back headphones on the other hand have closed "cans" that operate quietly and block out ambient noise. They are ideal for recording because they prevent 'spill' from the headphones through microphones into the current track you're recording, but may not have as much soundscape as Open Back ones.

DJ headphones

DJ headphones are workhorse headphones that are tuned for bass and treble response as well as providing good isolation. They generally have features like swivel earpiece for one ear listening, and a convenient folding structure for portability.
