DT 770 PRO Studio Headphones - 80 Ohm | Closed-back design, 80 Ohm impedance, Bass Reflex System, Velour Ear Pads, Replaceable Parts, Made in Germany

I ordered these headphones to try to improve to the lower base response and slight raised high frequencies of my current favorites which that I have used for around 5 years. These are the Sony MDR-7506 and were around £85 when I purchased them, they produce and exceptionally detailed soundscape which sounds open and airy and the vocals are exceptional (you can understand why these are reputed to be to goto general studio headphones for around 20 years). The Bass is detailed and you can discriminate every note. However the very low bass is lacking a little depth, and the very high end is emphasised. For this is the reason I decided to look for new headphones that could improve on these areas and was prepared to increase my budget, if needed, to around £200. I eventually tried out Sennheiser HD 280 Pro, Yamaha MT5's, Adam H200, BeyerDynamics DT770 Pro 80 Ohm & DT770 Pro X 32 Ohm, before choosing the AKG K371 - see my reviews of each of these others, for my evaluation of their performance.. As to the BeyerDynamics DT770 Pro - I found their overall design to be good quality. The padding supported the weight well and they were comfortable on your ears. However I did find the earcups slightly large and cumbersome, however the adjustment available allowed a comfortable fit to be achieved. I could have accepted this if the design had provided the audio improvements that I was seeking. Another downside was that these were 80 Ohm impedance and my computer struggled to drive them, so less compatible with my equipment, but my HiFi, phone and portable player all coped ok. The straight 3m cable was a good length and plug adaptor was good quality. The materials used were typical of consumer headphones and seem well made. You would not expect exotic materials at this price. However for me the whole purchase depended on the sonic performance - could they improve on the Sony MDR-7506, in the lower bass depth and high frequencies, without sacrificing the parts that were excellent. These DT770's, were significantly more expensive that my current headphones but did not give me the improvement that I wanted. The overall sound was open and airy. It was very detailed and very versatile, preforming well over the wide range of test tracks that I had chosen. They had very similar performance to my Sony's. Good vocal balance, great detail, however the Sony still seemed to have something a little more special on some vocal performances. They had slightly more tamed high frequencies, but no noticable improvement to the low frequency performance. So overall very good headphones but more costly than the Sony's and but still missing some of the upgrade qualities that I require.

I’ll admit I had a bit of a hassle with delivery when I first received these headphones and I wasn’t impressed at first. But I’m not letting that taint the rest of the experience because once I got these headphones in hand from their own website, the performance more than won me over. From the moment I plugged them in I was struck by just how clean and balanced the sound is. The bass is deep without being muddy, the mids are precise and the highs are clear and extended, perfect for when I’m mixing music, listening beats or just relaxing with some tunes. What really impresses is how comfortable they are. The over ear design and cushioned padding mean I can use them for hours without fatigue and eventually you just forget that they are even on your head. They feel solid and well built rather than flimsy and the closed back design does a good job at isolating outside noise, so I can stay fully immersed even in a busy environment. The 80 ohm impedance offers a sweet spot of clarity and volume without needing a dedicated amplifier if I’m just plugging into my laptop. Overall this has become my go to set of headphones. The quality, detail and comfort combine to deliver a top tier listening and mixing experience. Despite the rough delivery start the end result speaks for itself these are easily among the best headphones I’ve used.

Excellent pair of headphones. I’m using them for gaming and playing guitar through my audio interface. I originally bought the ATH m20x but quickly regretted it due to the lack of comfort and middling sound quality so I pulled the trigger on this. The durability and repairability seems excellent and the comfort is next level. The sound is also great with a v shaped profile. The treble does get a bit sharp some times which takes time to get used to but it’s fixable with an EQ. Really happy with my purchase and recommended.

I think the cable is way too long; this is done so that you can play it out of studio equipment and such but if you're looking for a pair of headphones on the move then this isn't ideal, and the 32 ohm version with the smaller cable supposedly just sounds a bit worse. The fact the cable isn't detachable is a shame as it could completely rectify that. Luckily you can just do that through modding (I sent mine to Custom Cans personally!). However these are great in sound quality! Extra bass and treble, but honestly I listen to a lot of rock and indie so that's great compared to my balanced sets (HD6XX and HD560s). They're also really comfortable although take a bit of time getting used to. The earcups provide alright noise isolation, not as good as XM3s or anything but still good; these are intended as more of an indoor set so that's not an issue. I really like these for games though; makes them sound great! The wire really gets in the way for me on console though, have to put a bit around the back of my neck so it doesn't get trampled. I really do recommend the detachable mods on this, it lets you put a custom microphone on as well that's way more wieldy. Just a class idea all round. You can't really go wrong though; they sound great, have decent isolation and are good for games. If you're weighing more in on music listening through an amp then this version or the 250 ohm one is great as the cable would actually service you there. Otherwise the 32 ohm version is better if you need more portability, although I've heard the sound quality is slightly worse. I really do recommend detachable cable mods for the best of both worlds, though.

What can i say.. first off let me say one thing if you're considering these and you own a gaming headset then do it! Don't hesitate. I got these coming from using Nari Ultimate gaming headphones they done the job the haptic was too overpowered and audio was muddy for the most part.. when i moved to these wow what a difference! I can hear things in games i never could before mainly the crunching of my footsteps on lethal company! The audio is so crisp and clear it's night and day. Listening to music is a joy as well. I find these to be really comfy they're light enough that my head/neck doesn't get fatigued like it did with my old headset. The wire is more than long enough that i never notice it and i keep it to my left so it's never in the way. I have mine paired with a little dac for extra oomph but they do work plugged directly into the pc. I have the 80ohm version i think for me a dac is important as i like a bigger range in volume. Build quality seems really good i like how easily replacing the foam and earpads will be and i can see these lasting a very long time. Overall a huge step up from gaming headsets and there's no need for any extra software wich was the icing on the cake for me. If you already use a seperate mic like me then consider a pair like this. Moving to proper headphones was my main reason for getting these i didn't want to sacrifice audio quality for rgb, built in mic, volume dials etc i just didn't want any of that anymore. Don't get me wrong it's ok if you like that but proper headphones are on another level no gimmicks just good audio. Highly recommend these

TL;DR: The sound of the DT 770 Pro 80 ohm is very respectable. I find that, in general, the DTs can hold their own against the legendary Sennheiser HD 650, and even greatly surpass it in one respect: bass extension and "wow" factor. Build: These headphones look and feel very sturdy. The headband is a thick metal sheet that seems unlikely to snap, and the earcups are a solid and rugged plastic. The top of the headband is wrapped in a soft, leather-like material that looks and feels posh. Certainly the best build quality I've personally experienced in headphones! Comfort: These are very comfortable cans. They surround my ears completely without touching them, and the velour pads are very soft and nice on the skin. The noise isolation is good. The clamping pressure was a bit annoying at first, and I initially could hear a high-pitched ringing in my ears due to it, as well as hear my blood pumping in my ear sometimes, but both these annoyances went away after a couple days. Perhaps the headband became less stiff with use, or I got used to the pressure. Sound: Now, let me state that I do not believe in assessing headphone sound in isolation. I don't trust people's sonic memory, or my own for that matter. I think one must always compare something against a standard. Fortunately, I got Sennheiser HD 650s (which are reference-class headphones and some of the most well-regarded cans in the world) a couple months after getting the DT 770s, creating a suitable parameter for comparison. How I tested: My testing methodology was to: 1- repeat the same section of a song over and over again, switching between both headphones as fast as I could (short-term sonic memory lasts only a few seconds). I did this for dozens of different songs. 2- running each headphone on a separate Apple device (both have the same internal DAC and sound the same to my ears) so that headphone switching can happen as fast as possible (takes about 1 second on average), and 3- matching the volume as closely as possible for the fairest comparison, since louder songs tend to sound better all else being equal. The DT 770s have surprisingly wide soundstage, considering they are closed-back, to the point that I don't notice much difference between both headphones' soundstage (pretty impressive considering we're comparing closed vs. open here). The DT 770s have considerably more satisfying bass. It's less accurate, sure, but it has more "thump" or "oomph" or however you wanna call it, being more fun to listen to. The DT 770s seem to have a noticeable boost in the high frequencies relative to the HD 650s. Everything sounds a little higher in pitch, like it was tuned slightly up, but not to the point of seeming inaccurate or annoying. The effect is minor and doesn't feel like it's doing something wrong, just different. Overall I am impressed with the DT 770s to the point I don't have any issue using it over the HD 650 (i.e. so as to not bother someone else in the room). With other headphones I would be bothered with the fact I'd not be getting the best sound quality, but with the DT 770s its so close that it doesn't matter.

Music and, more importantly, sound quality is subjective to the listener therefore it is worthwhile explaining a little about my headphone/music history so that you may decide whether my experience will compare to yours. If you are a seasoned audiophile and you regularly use a set of Grado PS1000's as part of your sound make-up, then you might not agree with everything in this review entirelly. However, if like me, you are not a seasoned audiophile or someone who has spent thousands on headphone equipment over the years and paying £130 for a set of headphones is seen as "pushing the boat out", then this review may help is justifying your decision to do so. All of my previous earphone purchases have been floating around the £50 - £70 mark. I paid £60 for my current gaming headset (Sennheiser PC330) and my current portable in-ear earphones (Denon AH-C551). I mainly listen to music on my PC and I currently use a Fiio E10 DAC (Digital to Analogue Converter), which cost roughly £60 from Amazon. I mostly listen to rock music although I have quite a range of music genre's across my 400GB music library, including electronic, dance, metal, rap, blues and hardstyle. Artists include Rammstein, AC/DC, Velvet Revolver, Metallica, Stereophonics, Snoop Dogg, Deadmau5 and Headhunterz. So now on to the headphones themselves... Comfort Out of the box, the first thing that struck me was how comfy the soft, velour earpads looked. Coming from the Sennheiser PC330 "on-ear" headphones, the comfiness experienced by the Beyerdynamics was on a different level. The Beyerdynamics are considered "over-the-ear" headphones. This means that they completely envelope your ear and, at least in my case, your ear never actually touches the headphones (I would say I have bigger than average ears). The velour pads therefore clamp themselves against the side of your head although such is the softness of the pads, you would hardly notice them there. I have seen some reviews where people have complained of the headphones being too tight or uncomfortable. I don't know how these could possibly be considered anything but extremely comfy. Comfort Rating - 5/5 Build Quality The earphones are built using a combination of metal, plastic and velour. The cans are made of plastic, although seem to be pretty sturdy. There are companies online that will replace the plastic cans with wooden ones, although I don't quite understand why this is desirable. I would imagine wooden cans would add to the weight and therefore reduce how comfy they are but each to their own I suppose. The hinges which attach the cans to the headband are made of metal. One of the great features of these headphones is that almost every part of the headphones can easily be replaced. You can buy spare parts from Beyerdynamics directly or even look around on Amazon/eBay. I think the headphones look extremely durable and I seem to be backed up by other reviews online (There seems to be quite a large number of reviewers who claim you could "through these down a hill" and they would still work. I'm not sure if throwing a set of DT 770's down a hill has any benefits, but it is good to know that the option is always there!) Build Quality - 4/5 Sound Quality I must admit, when I first received these headphones, I did not have access to my PC therefore I plugged them into my Galaxy S3 and was slightly disappointed. Although the sound was "good", it was pretty hard to justify spending £130 on. I hoped the improved sound from my Fiio E10 would make a difference. And it did....a whole lot. Bass Using Windows Media, I activated the TruBass enhancement and the bass response of the headphones almost blew me away. After a few hours of tinkering, I now have my media player set to WinAmp, I have customised the EQ a little (a little more emphasis on the bass) and have installed the Real Bass Exciter plug-in. I can honestly say that the only other times that I have heard (and felt) bass like this is when I have been at the front row of a rock concert. The really low frequecy basslines generate enough vibration within the earphones that it actually tickles your ears. COnsidering my ears never actually touch the earphones, that should give you an idea of just how explosive the bass can be. These are advertised as being able to re-produce sound as low as 5 Hz (much lower than the human ear can hear) and I honestly believe that. I had a 1000 watt amp and 12 inch subwoofer in my old car and even the bass there wasn't comparable to these. Mid Range Even with my emphasis on the bass, I can still hear everything that is going on with the mid-range sounds. Vocals would normally fall in to this category and I can tell you that even though I am being blasted with extreme amounts of bass, the vocals manage to rise above this and are crisp and clear. I can honestly say that I have absolutely no negatives to describe on the mid-range sound quality. High-End Range I had read previous reviews where the high-end has been described as a little harsh. I have been trying to find this harsh sound ever since I started listening to the earphones and I have yet to find this. It could be that because I have came from my Sennheiser PC330 headphones, where the high end can be a little "screechy", I am a little less sensitive to any "screeching" that the Beyers make. I could also be because I haven't been able to listen to these headphones on full volume, mainly due to the fact that I enjoy not being deaf. Honestly, I have the volume on these sitting at around 70% and there are absolutely no faults with the high-end sound reproduction. Sound Quality - 5/5 Overall Overall, I'm going to give these headphones 5/5. Sure, nothing is perfect and if someone let me listen to their set of Ultrasone Edition 10 headphones, then my definition of perfection would likely change, but in the meantime, I am absolutely thrilled by the sound quality provided by these earphones. If I have any negatives, it would be the sound leakage. It isn't a problem for me as I only use them for personal listening whilst in the house but if you wanted to use these in public, be prepared to let everyone else listen as well. On that note, these are also not very portable. They come with a 3 metre non-detachable lead so it would be very difficult to prevent yourself from tripping up on it. They aren't marketed for being very portable though so if you buy them for that reason, then you really haven't researched enough. It would be like buying a sub-woofer and a set of PA speakers and then complaing that they are quite difficult to carry around with you. If, like me, you haven't spent as much as £130 on a pair of earphones and are reluctant to do so, all I can say is that I was in the same position and I can categorically state that the sound reproduction on these has absolutely rekindled by love affair with music. Do you enjoy music? Do you enjoy listening to music? Do you need earphones and have a spare £130? Press the Buy Now button.

Now let me preface this review by mentioning I am not too knowledgable about the specifics of sound. This review is from the perspective of someone who spends a lot of time using headphones however may not know the industry buzzwords. Simply put, these headphones are fantastic. They have been my daily drivers for the past year, meaning 12+ hours of usage daily. The level of comfort is the first thing I feel I should touch on. I have a large head however they fit without trouble, and are exceptionally comfortable. Unlike many headphones I have had in the past, I never feel a need to take them off to "rest" my head - they almost feel like a part of my body at this point. The sound is incredible, granted some equaliser fiddling (can be easily found online) will make the experience so much better. I use these headphones for everything from music, anime, movies, and games. They just deliver everything very richly and clearly. The bass seems especially solid, so if you're a bit of a bass head like me, these headphones will serve you well. The closed-back nature of the headphones also mean they do a good job at keeping the stuff you're listening to in, and outside noises out. They are not noise cancelling of course, but they certainly work great at drowning out any noises that may be around you. All in all, a wonderful set of headphones. I don't foresee them breaking any time soon due to their exceptional build quality, but if they were to eventually die on me, I would likely pick up another pair as a replacement.

La primera vez que los utilicé me sentí decepcionado, el sonido era muy plano nada vibrante, el bajo era casi inexistente, estaba acostumbrado al audio de Bose o Sony y esto sonaba completamente distinto. Empecé a experimentar con ecualizadores (wavelet), compré un DAC y todo dió un giro impresionante. Los audífonos te permiten modificar el audio completamente a tu gusto sin perder fidelidad. Los audífonos tienen un sonido neutro para que tú lo modifiques a tu gusto, de verdad estoy sorprendido. Fuera del sonido son audífonos muy cómodos, las almohadillas son suaves y frescas. No sé siente que te apriete la cabeza y no se hace cansado a la larga.

Superb.
