DT 770 Pro (250 Ohm), Closed-Back Studio Headphones, Black

I have the 250ohm version of this headphone. it's my work headphone, and I pair it with a schiit modi and vali stack. I stream spotify premium (320kbps quality), and listen about 4-6 hours a day (desk job). so I get A LOT of time with these headphones, more so than any of my others. these replaced my ath m50x as my work headphones. ok so background out of the way, lets talk dt770! simply put, these are one of my favorite headphones, period. they're not my best sounding headphone by a significant margin. but I still love these headphones. so lets discus why! i'll save you a super long technical breakdown of the sound, there's lot of that online, I'm only giving you my impressions. first, build quality and comfort. excellent! these are by far some of the most comfortable headphones I've worn. only my hd598 come close from a comfort perspective. I personally like the beyer comfort more. I prefer the larger ear cups. the velour ear pads are excellent, they're soft, well made with rich material, and fit oh so well. my only nitpik would be for a slightly softer inner padding for the ear pads. they're every so slightly on the stiff side. but only slightly. all in all 4-6 hours a day and no discomfort, hard to beat, no? build quality is excellent as well. they feel strong, precise, and very durable. ok lets talk sound. they have a very V shaped sound signature. lows and highs are emphasized, with more shallow mids. very very similar sound signature to the ath m50x. but I find the mids on the beyers to be better. bass is excellent. it's potent with great impact and extension. yes it does get muddy, but I'm ok with it. an amp tightens up the bass tremendously. I've heard the 80 ohm version and it has far more bass compared to the 250ohm version. the 250ohm is a more balanced headphone. but still bassy, lets get that straight. highs are bright, no way around it. they can be piercing at times with bright song tracks. I personally don't mind it, but if you're sensitive to highs, these might not be for you. the m50x has better highs honestly. less bright with more detail. but I love the energy in the beyer highs. i'll deal with occasional sharpness. mids are decent, nothing more, nothing less. they're the least accomplished of the 770's sound signature. they are a bit shallow and can be every so slightly overshadowed by the bass on bass heavy tracks. again I personally don't mind the mids, but if you're a mid lover, maybe look elsewhere. now for a closed can with a V shaped sound signature, the mids are not bad at all. but compared to some of my open headphones with more quality mids, they're lacking. despite the quirks and flaws with the sound signature, these are just fun headphones to listen to. they do well with just about any genre, though vocals suffer ever so slightly with the recessed mids. but for an all around fun headphone these are my top choice. being a closed headphone, they isolate extremely well. they block a lot of outside noise, and don't bleed out much sound, so they're perfect for a quiet office. even at my LOUD volume levels, my cube mates don't notice them except when I take them off. then they look at me like I'm crazy for having them on so loud haha. being 250ohm they need an amp to really shine. they pair very well with the schiit modi and vali. the vali tames the bright highs ever so slightly, and gives excellent control to the bass. the schiit magni I do not think is a great pairing due to it's slightly colder and brighter sound signature. the magni brings out slightly more detail with the 770, but also accentuates the brightness of the headphone. with the magni I'm more prone to wincing from the highs. finally, the fiio e12 is a very good portable amp for the 770. it has plenty of power, and good control and dynamics. it also helps tame the bright highs, like the vali does. it lacks the schiit's detail, but still sounds excellent. so bottom line, if you are in the market for a closed headphone with big bass, and a fun sound signature, the 770 should definitely be on your list to try out. they're well built, comfortable, and just plain fun to listen to. they have their quirks, they're not nearly the best sounding headphone for the price, but I still love them all the same. if you're not willing to use an amp, get the 32ohm version, it's much easier to drive. if you want the biggest bass impact, get the 80ohm version. if you want the most balanced, get the 250 ohm version. if you like a flat sound signature....keep looking!

Before getting these Beyerdynamics, I'd never spent more than $50 on a pair of headphones. Over the last thirty years, I've had headphones in that price category by Sennheiser, Koss, Audio-Technica, and Philips. For the last ten years, I've been unnecessarily content with a pair of Philips SBC HP250 32 ohm headphones. I've missed decades of opportunities to listen to quality sound because of this misplaced frugality. These DT770 Pro headphones resolve and clarify detail that in my previous headphones was a sonic blur. Specifications: Beyerdynamic headphones are made in Germany. The DT770 Pro is available in 80 ohm and 250 ohm. These are the 250 ohm model. Frequency response on either model is 5 Hz to 35 kHz. They are closed back headphones, and the ambient noise attenuation is approximately 18 dbA. THD (total harmonic distortion) is less than 0.2% and nominal SPL (sound pressure level) is 96 dB. Their power handling capacity is 100 mW. The cable is 3 meters long, which is coiled on the 250 ohm model and straight on the 80 ohm model. The coiled cable isn't long enough to wear the headphones and move far from the jack, so I've linked it to a Mogami Gold EXT 10 foot Headphone Extension Cable I bought after getting the phones. This allows me to sit or move around the room some distance from the jack, but I think now that a 15 foot extension would have been a better choice, since I don't like to overstretch the coils on the headphone cable. (This Mogami cable is heavy duty and I absolutely recommend it.) These 250 ohm phones work fine without a headphone amp, plugged straight into my i3 Toshiba Satellite P745 laptop (year 2012 model). I do amplify them, though (because I already had the amp and they sound even better amped), with a (discontinued) Rane HC 4S headphone console. Specs on the Rane amp: This is a four phone amp (actually four amps in one rolled steel, rack-mountable box) designed to take the output of a studio mixer (so it's not an audiophile amp). It takes two ¼ inch phone plugs (tip/ring) for input and then outputs to both a stereo 3.5mm mini jack or stereo ¼ inch stereo phone jack for each headphone (choose one per amp), and is switchable overall from stereo to mono. Each phone has its own volume control and LED overload indicator. The amp has output impedance of 1 ohm max and will drive phones from 32 to 600 ohms, taking them typically up to 120 dB SPL, with 200 mW minimum power for 32 to 150 ohm phones (with 75 ohm phones being optimum at 239 mW, and yielding 146 mW for 300 ohm phones). Frequency response is 10 Hz to 45 kHz (+0/-3 dB). From the computer to the amp: I do not have a DAC between the computer and amp. To connect the laptop to the amp, I use a six foot long Sescom SES-IPOD-QTRM06 cable with 3.5mm stereo plug to dual ¼ inch phone plugs, and plug it into the headphone jack of the laptop. This cable was designed for the iPod and is of higher quality (and more costly) than the three foot long Hosa cable I was using before this. (Sescom also makes cables with a 3.5 mm stereo plug going to two RCA plugs.) I use a right-angle 3.5mm female to 3.5mm male adapter at the headphone jack to protect the cable and jack from developing a short from the weight of the cable. As of this writing, I'm using an adapter from Radio Shack, but I might try a Hosa brand of the same type. The first thing I did on getting the Beyerdynamics was to compare them, using the Rane amp, with the Philips SBC HP250 I've been using for years. The DT 770 at 250 ohms is softer in loudness than the 32 ohm Philips at the same volume setting, but not by much. The difference in clarity and sound quality, especially at high volume, is striking. I'll leave it to others to write about soundstage and presentation of low, mid, and high frequency ranges. I also use these phones with my ten-year-old Sony receiver, straight from the headphone jack, and they are an improvement over my previous headphones. Software: On the laptop, I'm using JRiver Media Center (purchased) and VLC Media Player (free). I started out with foobar2000 (free) for audio, but JRiver is superior and worth the small expense. Media Monkey is another program I tested. It is also free unless you want the more advanced version. I highly recommend JRiver Media Center. I've set it as the default player for videos also, usurping VLC. However, VLC and foobar2000 (along with Irfan View for a picture viewer and simple image editor) are good programs that can replace the Windows media player with advanced features and without cost. They remain on my computer with shortcuts on my desktop. I use iTunes for iTunes U and nothing else. These headphones sound good with this setup, although I suspect there is more quality to be had from them with better mediation between the audio's digital data and the headphones (i.e. audiophile grade DAC and amp, such as those available from Musical Fidelity, Burson, or Lehmann Audio, among many others. I had to return the first pair of these headphones for a replacement before a month was past because the right side cut out. I got them from the Recording Store here at amazon and out in the physical world in New York. They sent me a phone number to call. I asked for a new pair (I really like these headphones), and they happily sent me a return label via email. I had the replacements via USPS Priority within a week (literally) of sending out the defective pair via UPS. Excellent service. Choices (for me) flanking the DT 770 Pro 250 Ohm were the Audio-Technica ATHM50S Professional Monitor Headphones (38 Ohms) (costing less) and the BEYER DYNAMIC DT880-Pro Headphones (250 Ohms) (costing more). Sennheiser was the other brand I considered. I did not listen to any of these before buying. I have no regrets about my choice. You can spend a lot of money on headphones. You can also spend hardly any money at all. You'll hear the tune and pulse of the music in even the cheapest phones. It's up to you to decide how much you're willing to pay to hear more. I think the DT Pro 250 Ohm is a good pair of entry-level audiophile headphones.

Going to do a Head-Fi style review as I normally do for headphones. Introduction A bit of background is always necessary before getting into the review. To start out, I've been in the headphone hobby for about three years now. I currently own Sennheiser HD800, HD700, Beyerdynamic T90, Audeze LCD-2, and these with Massdrop exclusive Fostex TH-X00 on the way. I have heard those as well as Beyerdynamic DT990 and T1, M-Audio Q40, and HIFIMAN HE-400i. My preferred SQ tends to favor bass, vocals, and soundstage. My setup is: laptop --- Schiit Bifröst multibit DAC via S/PDIF to TOSlink --- Schiit Valhalla 2 OTL vacuum tube amplifier equipped with two Sovtek 6H30N tubes and two Amperex PQ 6922 tubes --- headphones I originally was interested in these but decided to give the DT990s a chance and passed these up. After buying the TH-X00s back in February (they arrive in May) I decided to buy the DT990s again after returning them to further my search for bass + soundstage which they were just under what I was looking for, but I remembered that I passed the DT770s up and decided to go for them instead. So here we are today... Overall This will function as a TL;DR. Putting this simply, these are awesome, they're what the HD700s should be. While they're not quite as good as the HD700s, they're up there...and they cost $300 less. Honestly, I get why these are so highly regarded and really like them and am very glad I gave them a chance. These will be staying in my collection, and while I like open a lot more than closed...these are just one of those pairs of cans you simply must own or have at least heard. These don't do anything wrong, simply great. Soundstage As wide as HD700s, but deeper by a fair bit. Being closed, this is a huge surprise. You could place these on my head when I am blindfolded and would say they're open, but they are most certainly not. Definitely a major plus. Separation It's quite good from what I can hear. You can tell where the instruments are, but it doesn't seem spectacular. Definitely noticeable, and not bad by any means. Imaging Very good. This does not skimp when powered correctly. Everything seems to be as loud and proud as it was when recording. Detail Definitely an authority on this. While I have heard better, it doesn't skimp on this either. I can hear every drum hit, every guitar strum, etc. and every detail for the singer's voice. It's not as pronounced as on HD800s, but I don't expect it to compete with something nearly 10x its price, so it's definitely wonderful. Bass They are known for this. Being closed AND dynamic means the bass is big. Out of the box, they are balanced between treble and bass, and that is true...but the bass it highly prevalent. Throw a bass boost at it and it takes it like a champ. I am using my bass boosting EQ that I use on my HD800s which are dynamic kings and it's taking it very well and producing heavier bass than my modded HD800s can. While they're not pushing air like the M-Audio Q40s can, they've got the quality to match the quantity. The quality of bass coming from these is almost as good as that form HD800s which is extremely impressive. They also hit quite low, and it's much more present than on the HD800s which is great. Absolutely love the bass on these. Mids The only thing I really have to say here is the mids are more liquid than on the Audeze LCD-2s. If you've ever heard them, you'll know this is a huge statement. Coming from my setup, the mids on these are much more desirable than on the LCD2s. Treble Unlike on the T90s, the treble is done very well. It's not as airy as I like, but they're very smooth. Barely any sibilance and do not disappear when hit with a heavy bass leaning EQ. The treble is exactly where it should be, although a bit arier could never hurt anyone. Honestly, have to say the treble is just as good on these as on the HD800s. Conclusion I would recommend these to everyone. They're simply a great value, and am ashamed I passed these up. I am confident that if I bought a FiiO E12 amp and paired it with these then I wouldn't need a $2500 setup because I like them that much. I even sometimes prefer to listen to these over my HD800s and find myself putting them on more than my HD800s recently. Don't think about it, just buy them.

I do have an audiophile ears, but I do not own any audiophile equipment. Recently I bought a Yeti Plus microphone that has an audio jack for monitoring audio. So, I plugged in my Bose QC35 headphones, using the 3.5 mm audio cable, and it sounded OK. But, it didn't sound great. I decided to subscribe to Apple Music to see what the music sounds like via this setup. It was nothing to write home about. I then plugged the same QC35 headphones to my 2021 Apple M1 Pro MacBook Pro (14"), and it sounded exactly like it did out of the Yeti X microphone's headphone jack. I decided to research and see why the quality was so low. I don't normally listen to music, but I couldn't imagine that the Apple Music streamed (even at the highest selectable quality) would be so unremarkable. So, I looked up the impedance of the audio jack of the Yeti X microphone, and I realized that it's a high-impedance audio output. Then, I looked up the 2021 M1 Pro MacBook Pro specs, and what do you know? It also has a high-impedance output audio jack (unlike the 2020 M1 MacBook and MacBook Pro). So, then I googled what impedance should the headphones have for high-impedance audio outputs and learned that the impedance of the headphones should be at least 8-10 times of the impedance of the audio output in Ohms. Hence, I started the search for the high-impedance headphones. I've read hundreds of reviews, and I finally found the DT 770 PRO 250 Ohm headphones. They were well reviewed, they were relatively inexpensive, they they had a version with 250 Ohm of impedance (which is about 8 times as high as the audio output of the Yeti X audio jack). So, I decided to try these headphones. I ordered them and received them the next day via Amazon Prime shipping. As soon as I plugged them in and started the stream from Apple Music, my jaw dropped. This is what I was looking for, and here it is. Unbelievable I could get a jack pot on the first attempt for under $200 and especially becasue they are made in Germany. How is this even possible? Now, are they comfortable to wear? To me, they are a little too tight. Are they worse than the Bose QC35 when it comes to comfort? Maybe Bose QC35 are a little more comfortable. But, when it comes to the sound, OMG. There is no comparison. Unless you want to pay many times more for premium high-impedence headphones just to get a better fit, then go ahead and get the ones for $1500, $2500, etc. Otherwise, these are amazing when it comes to the audio quality. Can anyone tell that these are better than the QC35? Yes, anyone can tell unless you use these 250 Ohm ones with a low-impedance audio output like in smartphones, older MacBooks, etc. Now, my son has a 2020 M1 MacBook Air, which is an excellent laptop, but it has a low-impedance audio jack output. So, for my son, I've ordered an 80-ohm version to compare to my 250-ohm version. I will let him decide which one to go with. I'd suggest getting both the 80-Ohm and the 250-Ohm version and compare them side by side - as long as you are getting these headphones for a decent piece of audio equipment. If you are getting them for an iPhone (not sure why you would), then maybe you should go with the lowest-impedence version. Edit: I've now compared the 250 Ohm version to the 80 Ohm version. In the beginning, I couldn't tell any difference when using them with my Yeti X microphone's high-impedance audio out jack and the 2021 M1 Pro MacBook Pro high-impedance audio jack. However, the more I listened to both, the more I started hearing the difference. I then switched to testing both 250 Ohm and the 80 Ohm headsets exclusively with the 2021 M1 Pro MacBook Pro's high-impedance audio jack because it turned out that the Yet X audio jack shows its shortcomings when music with serious bass is played out of it. In my opinion, the 250 Ohm headset reproduces the sounds more accurately. When listening to Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes (on Apple Music lossless), I could actually hear some imperfection in the bass guitar (like the string was moved under the player's finger accidentally, resulting in a little distortion), while I couldn't hear this through the 80 Ohm headset. When listening to Bohemian Rhapsody Remastered in 2011 on Apple Muisci (lossless), It appears that mids and the highs are a bit dulled down through the 80 Ohm headset, whereas they are crystal clear through the 250 Ohm headset. We are talking here very subtle differences that can only be detected while listening to the same piece over and over again via both headsets (back to back). It appears that the best songs recommended for testing headsets are: 1. Bohemian Rhapsody Remastered (2011) by Queen. ... 2. Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes. ... 3. Feels Like We Only Go Backwards by Tame Impala. ... 4. Heroes (2017 Remaster) by David Bowie. ... 5. No Time for Caution by Hans Zimmer. ... 6. Diamonds From Sierra Leone by Kanye West. ... 7. Now We Are Free by Hans Zimmer Additionally, I was using the 2021 M1 Pro MacBook Pro's audio jack (which auto-senses high-impedance and low-impedance headphones). I'm not sure what it does for the 80 Ohm headphones: does it consider them low-impedance or high-impedance because, in reality, they are medium-impedance headphones. Compared to other laptops, the 2021 M1 Pro MacBook Pro probably has a decent-quality pre-amp and DAC similar to inexpensive (less than $200) standalone DACs with pre-amps. So, perhaps to hear the difference between the 80 Ohm and 250 Ohm versions of this headset, one should use decent audio equipment. My son hasn't yet tested the two headsets with his 2020 M1 MacBook Air, so I'm not sure which one he decides on. I will post another update later.

2nd UPDATE: it's a year and a day now, no literally and again i'm quite pleased. as you read and it's long, you'll see words regarding the sharp highs and related distortion. well, that's pretty much poof now! two reasons for that change: 1) i over tweaked the treble and 2) confirmation with replay on a high-end receiver. It may still run a tad bright but it's telling in as much as, it's reflecting some overly saturated levels. to that end, these are killer! be patient, they take at least 30 hours to break-in and over time, the tightness around the head abates. so yeah, you'll notice them but i no longer ache after hours of continuous use. ~ ~ ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ ~ ~ 1st UPDATE: so it's a bit over 6 months now and i wanted to f-up with my latest experiences. on average, i use these approx 10-15 hours/week. so while the distortion on the highs has attenuated some, they're still not reproduced very well. at this point, i'm not expecting any additional improvement; it's livable. many rate this model as "technical" and i have no clue what that means. for my needs, i'll stay the course and here's why. these cans repro bass like no other! ditto with midrange. to that end, i can live with the highs being inaccurate. keep in mind, if i lower the volume on highs, it's quite tolerable. typically, when it distorts, it's likely due to an oversat in that frequency range. for cans w/o anc, i'm quite happy but the jbl's are close by in a closet. lastly and sadly, while the tightness over the ears has improved significantly, there's is noticeable wear on the pads. shameful! after years of use, the jbl's exhibited no such flaw and were comfy from day one. ~ ~ ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ ~ ~ ORIGINAL: overall, these provide very good audio and i'll get into that. they replace my tried & true jbl live 650btnc cans which are very close sonically. the jbl has anc and an app for personalizing eq, but those features were unutilized. in fact, it was used with a wire, and anc was off. just before this purchase, i tried the sennheiser hd 599 se, but that was a big disappointment and got returned after hearing the 770 pro. the hd 599 is an "open" design and just didn't cut it. if you're like me, you spend time reading reviews, then take the dive. problem is that audio is so personal and subjective, it's difficult to find the right match regardless of what these "experts" write. look, i'm no 'phile but i know what works for these ears in my home environ. i primarily listen to music from a desktop and often tweak the audio with an equalizer. these cans are plugged into the audio control module of my sound blaster ae-7 dac which seems to handle 250 ohms quite well. at home, noise cancelation is unnecessary, in fact, it's likely frowned upon since nc makes it extremely difficult for HER to summon me. fwiw, this frowned feeling may not be shared, k. even natively, the jbl was pretty good with noise isolation and fit the bill quite nicely except the bass was a tad heavy. this 770 pro has seemingly more accurate bass that's less exaggerated but some mids and highs can get too bright! this brightness is tolerable but it's a negative. while the cans fit my ears nicely, after about an hour or so of use, their weight and the tightness around the head become bothersome. this was never a problem with jbl and hopefully with more use, it improves. right out-da-box, i was quite disappointed in the audio experience! i would switch from the jbl to the 770 and shake my head - not anymore! after several hours of use, there has been a noticeable improvement in the audio. my hope now is that the tightness lightens up as well. it's been a full week of use now and i've retired the old jbl cans because overall, i'm experiencing cleaner more accurate audio with the 770 pro. i have an improved audio awareness in my environ now and while i can better hear some background sounds, it's still muted enough so as to not be a distraction. these sounds are from a tv or her talking on the phone, k. still, with a little twist of the volume knob, any background audio goes poof! the coiled wire is a very nice touch and although it's not removeable, it's well reinforced at its connection to the can. unlike some "expert" reviewers, i feel it's a plus. that said, i wish beyer would have enclosed the individual wires that go from the headband to each can. leaving them exposed subjects them to some accidental pull and this is just poor design at this price point, and no, these weren't plucked off the vine; i spent $160 and watched it go to $150 less than 12 hours later. oh well.

These have been a staple in my setup for a long time, especially for music production and general use. The biggest thing with these is isolation. Since they’re closed-back, they block out outside noise and keep everything focused in your ears. That makes them great for recording, editing, and situations where you don’t want distractions. I actually use these alongside a pair of open-back headphones (HD 600), and they complement each other really well. These feel more direct and controlled, while the open-backs feel more natural and spacious. I switch between both depending on what I’m doing. Sound quality is excellent—clean, detailed, and reliable enough to use as a reference when working on music. I’ll often go between these, my speakers, and other headphones to check how a mix translates. They’re also very comfortable for long sessions, which matters a lot if you’re wearing them for hours. I liked them enough that after a lot of use, I ended up buying a second pair. My first pair eventually developed a crack in one of the plastic parts after a long time (and probably some drops), but they still worked. Considering how much I used them, I still feel like I got my money’s worth. I use these for music production, editing, and gaming, and they’ve held up well across all of it. I also use them when working on content and audio for my channels, and they’ve been reliable throughout. Overall, these are not something I’d replace—they’re something I’d keep alongside other headphones. If you want isolation and a focused listening experience, these are a great choice. And if you pair them with something open-back, you get the best of both worlds.

Let me start by saying that I'm not an audiophile by any means. So keep in mind that I'm just going to review these as someone who knows very little about headphones and electronics, but still has a strong appreciation for good sounding music and video games. I bought these headphones to replace some old sonys that were about 10 years old and just falling apart. I wanted something a little nicer so I did a bit of research and decided to try these. I use the Fiio L6 amp with these also FYI. I first tested these with my Iphone 4. I could not notice a whole lot of difference in quality when using the amp, as compared to not using it at all. I was, however, able to get a higher volume when using the amp. I also had to play around with the EQ settings a bit to get the sound I wanted (I like the 'electronic' setting). These things sounded great with the music from my Iphone! I went back and tried my old headphones for a side-by-side comparison and the difference was huge! These new headphones had much better tone and sounded much less 'tinny'. They are comfortable to wear for hours at a time, and it really shields you from outside sound sources. Next, I tried these headphones on my computer. I have a cheap-o sound card, and this time I did notice a sound quality increase when using the amp. I did a lot of experimenting with the EQ and settings until I found something I liked, then tested it on some video games (Diablo, Battlefield). I was even more blown away this time!! I was able to notice very subtle sound effects in the games and the whole gaming experience felt so much more immersive. I also noticed the game music had much more detail than I originally thought. There were times that I would hear the wind rustling some leaves in the game, and I initially thought that the sounds were coming from my open window! Like I said, I don't know much about high end audio equipment, but if I can't tell the different between sounds from my headphones and sounds from an open window, I'll take that as a positive thing! My last test was to use these things while playing my drums. Being a drummer, I like to play along with music, so it was important that I have good outside noise reduction. Well, even while playing the drums, these things shield just enough of the outside noise that I can keep the volume of the headphones lower while still being able to hear myself play. This is great for me because my ears are getting worse as I get older and I was looking for a good way to practice my drums along with music without having to go max volume on the headphones. These did the trick. So all in all, I'm very, very pleased. Having never used a pair of headphones costing more than 40 or 50$, I don't have a real basis of comparison. But coming from a regular dude who just really likes music, these things just blew me away. I had to play with settings before getting them to sound the way I wanted, but once I figured it out, I've been very happy. UPDATE: Just wanted to say that nearly 2 years later, these things are still in like-new condition. The ear padding has not deteriorated at ALL, the sound remains awesome (maybe even a little better after breaking them in), and I have had zero issues with these things. All while using them on average for about 15 hours (estimated) a week.

I was tired of buying cheap $15-$30 earbuds every few months so I wanted to buy a pair of rugged headphones that would last for a long time. The construction on these headphones is amazing, the headband is made of three metal pieces, one on the top, and one on either side. The only downside is that they metal pieces are connected with a plastic piece, but it seems to hold up well. This is especially why I laugh when I see broken headbands on just about every other pair of beats headphones. I can bend these headphones completely flat without worrying that they will break. In fact, they were a little tight at first, but after a few bends like this I got them to be nice and comfortable. After wearing them for five minutes I forget that I even have them on. The velour pads are incredibly soft, and get softer as you use them. Your ears do not get warm if you are just sitting, but if you move around too much they could get uncomfortably hot. I was originally considering the DT880's but I did not want open headphones. I had heard that DT770's were very bassy, but the 250 ohm version I bought seems to be very flat, although slightly sibilant. I used an equalizer to turn up the bass a little and lower the ~5k range and got rid of the sibilance. Even when the bass is turned up it is still very tight and not muddy at all. I listen mainly to ska, classical, and a little electronic, and these headphones are perfect for that. The sound on these absolutely destroys anything I had ever heard before. I can hear details in songs I had never heard before, and it sounds like the music is being played live right next to me, at least on high quality FLAC files. On the other hand these headphones really make it easy to hear the imperfections in lower quality recordings. My sound card is an Asus Xonar D2X, which can drive the headphones louder than I will ever need. My smartphone, an EVO 4G LTE also drives them well enough for casual listening, although I have never and do not plan on using these headphones in public. As for the noise canceling of the headphones, when they are not playing any music I can hear lower sounds such as me hitting the keys on my keyboard and clicking my mouse, as well as my own voice, but not anything more than five feet away from me. When music is playing, I can still hear my keyboard, and while I can tell if I am talking, I cannot make out what I am saying, and I cannot hear anything else around me. Again, I do not plan on taking these headphones out in public because they are quite large and the coiled cable is about 4 feet long when unstretched, which would make it difficult to manage. In conclusion, I gave this a rating of 5 stars but it really should be more like 4.5, the sound is amazing and they are very comfortable, but the plastic pieces and the huge, non-detachable cable (without tearing open the headphones) are a little disappointing. If you are looking for pretty flat, closed ~$150 headphones that are good for listening to a wide range of genres, then the DT 770's are probably what you are looking for.

Working great! The sound quality is amazing. I use them for recording and occasionally for watching videos on my computer. Highly satisfied!

Die Beyerdynamic sind die ersten, richtigen Ohren, zu denen ich bisher von deutlich günstigeren Kopfhörern umgestiegen bin. Ich habe einige andere Beyerdynamic-Modelle und KH von Audio-Technica, Sennheiser und AKG im Geschäft getestet und mich letztendlich für die DT 770 entschieden, in der 250 Ohm-Variante, die stationär mit einem FiiO E10k an meinem PC benutzt werden. Die Verarbeitung wirkt super, und am Rande alles "Made in Germany". Langzeiterfahrungen liegen noch nicht vor, wobei ich in der Preisklasse schon etwas an Qualität erwarte. Im Bedarfsfall werde ich diese Bewertung entsprechend anpassen. Der Haltebügel ist aus Metall, die Muschelaußenseiten bestehen aus Kunststoff, der trotzdem wertig und stabil wirkt. Da riecht und knarzt nichts nach dem Auspacken. Dasselbe gilt für die Ummantelung des Bügels, die Teile sollen sich - laut Herstellerangabe - alle problemlos auswechseln lassen. In der 250 Ohm-Variante hat der BD nur die Variante mit Spiralkabel, wie man es von schurgebundenen Telefonen kennt. Das sollte man vorher beachten, falls man die KH auch mal unterwegs nutzen möchte. Vom Tragekomfort bin ich begeistert und finde die Velour-Ohrpolster für Sessions von 2+ Stunden angenehmer als die Polsterung bei den 880- und 990er Modellen. Ich habe mittelgroße Ohren und außer der bauartbedingten Wärmeentwicklung, gerade bei höheren Temperaturen, gibt es keinerlei Probleme. Da rutscht nichts beim Bewegen des Kopfes, ebenfalls keine Störgeräusche. Gelegentlich mal die Lauscher ablegen hilft gut für den Luftaustausch, zumal die KH gut die Außenwelt abschirmen. Nun zum Klang: Exakte Bass-, Mitten- und Höhenanalysen fallen mangels Erfahrung heraus. Insgesamt bin ich von der Audioqualität vollkommen überzeugt, auch nach der Gewöhnung an einen Kopfhörer, der nun die Songs deutlich klarer wiedergibt und man Fehler in der Aufnahme wahrnimmt, was zu einem kleinen Luxusproblem verkommt. Da heißt es nun, bessere Audioquellen suchen. Es sei nur gesagt, dass mir die 770er einen kleinen Tick stärker bassbetont auffallen, ohne dass es wie bei vielen günstigeren KH massiv verwaschen klingt. Trotzdem hört man das restliche Klangspektrum klar heraus. Das hat mir beim Custom One Pro wiederum nicht gefallen, der ebenfalls von Beyerdynamic gefertigt wird. Da ich bevorzugt Rock, Schwermetall und elektronische Musik höre, komme ich da auf meine Kosten und kann nun endlich Hi-Hats klarer und andere Instrumente deutlicher heraushören. Bei Klassik (Chopin, weniger bekannte Musik von Tschaikowski) dagegen finde ich diese Ohren nicht ganz so gelungen, da würde ich neutralere Kopfhörer empfehlen oder zumindest welche, die die Bassfrequenzen etwas weniger betonen. Wobei auch mir klar ist, dass keiner wirklich vollkommen ungefärbt die Musik wiedergibt. Das Ganze wird einem PC mit dem o. g. FiiO (externe Soundkarte und Kopfhörerverstärker im Einen) betrieben, da das Mainboard mit dem ALC892, siehe diverse Foren inkl. dem (deutschsprachigen) Hifi-Forum und anderen, nicht unbedingt den besten Onboard-Soundchip hat. Interessanterweise habe ich mit den DT 770 mit 250 Ohm an meinem sehr günstigem Android-Smartphone (Moto E2) bereits ohne KHV einen ordentliche Lautstärke und höre auch dort mehr an Details heraus. Ob der FiiO an diesem Smartphone noch mehr Qualitätssprünge mit sich bringt, weiß ich mangels USB on the go-Kabel nicht, das aber nur am Rande und natürlich ohne Einfluss auf die Rezension. Fazit: Ich finde die Kopfhörer von der Audioqualität für fast alle Genres großartig und ordentlich verarbeitet. Kann ihn in Sachen Preis-/Leistung absolut empfehlen. Man sollte nach Möglichkeit vorher probehören, zumindest verschiedene Modelle desselben Herstellers, idealerweise auch die anderen Hersteller einbeziehen, da sich die Hörgewohnheiten schließlich unterscheiden. Und etwas Zeit mitbringen beim Testen, da die Ohren sich erstmalig an gute Kopfhörer gewöhnen müssen, etwa falls jemand bisher nur stark basslastige Lauscher kennen sollte. Meiner Meinung nach macht man mit dem DT 770, zumindest in der 250 Ohm-Version, als Allrounder nichts falsch.

Great sound and the pads are very very comfortable.
