DT 770 Pro

“I had these in college - was absolutely in love with them (and the fuzzy ears) and they treated me well for awhile, but then either a driver died or there was a bad connection somewhere.”

“The long term durability of these headphones seems to really depend on the climate where you live. When I moved to Florida the humidity and/or heat really caused them to start deteriorating fast.”

“i'd say go for the Beyerdynamics since their only drawback is their harsh upper register of the frequency and nothing else. For the money, you can't beat them!”

“I would say skip Beyerdynamic line up speaking as owner of DT 880 pro and upgraded to DT 1990 Pro, the headphones are built like a tank except for 1 part the plastic hinge that controls the headband size adjustment”

“The headphones have held up amazing in the 3 years I've had them and I've even dropped them a few times too, only need to buy some new pads at some point.”

“My experience with the DT770s is pretty mediocre as well. Overall I find them great for my use case (Closed Back PC Gaming) but I personally wouldn't buy them to listen to music with them.”

“I found the DT 770 to have a wider, more detailed sound compared to the 700 Pro X. Instrument seperation is better, everything just sounds more layered.”

“They did receive the driver update, but the driver update has been a good thing in my opinion - unchanged sound, less points of failure at the connections.”

“Personally, listening to a song on the 770s felt like sitting in an office and watching an inkjet printer print out the notation for said song.”

“I got the DT 770 pro 80 ohms, and I took the ear muffs off to wash, and then the plastic broke and now one of of the muffs is permanently off.”

“I 100% will always recommend a good quality pair of studio headphones over a headset for that smooth clear audio Get the DT 770 pro / sennheisers!”

“Not sure about the sound but found the pads to be weirdly uncomfortable, especially when everyone said these are some of the most comfortable cans around.”

“They're still the most comfortable headphones I've ever worn, but I feel like 7 months of breaking in the weird-feeling stock pads hasn't really helped and they still feel like they have crumpled paper inside.”

“Beyerdynamic is a pretty amazing company. Yeah their signature sound may not be for everyone. But they still make most of their products in Germany and they're still amazing. Definitely my favourite headphone company.”

“The 80 and 250 ohm I've heard sounded like every critique open back believers have against closed backs distilled into one sound signature.”

“I like my 92's enough that I'm not opposed to another set of AKG's, and may go that route, but I kinda wanted to "branch out" a bit.”

“I friggin hated them when I first put them on. They were Horribly uncomfortable for me, and the treble was murder on my ears.”

“They are good for music listening and is surprisingly decent for gaming too, as they have quite a wide soundstage for a closed-back headphone.”

“The plastic parts where the cable goes into the headstrap (where your added padding starts on either side) broke on mine :/”

“I use the DT 770 pro to mix music and listen to music and the spacial ability of these headphones is crazy good. Really a game changer.”

“They make a lot bum bum, were quite sibilant with my equipment and voices were quite faint, due to the bath tub sounding.”

“They lack bass, the highs sizzle, and the earpads compress down to nothing until the driver is right up against your ear.”

“The dt770 actually can sound good with the right pads and proper tuning, if you are willing to chase after the sound you like.”

“It's not bad considering the horror stories I had heard about Beyer headphones and harsh, sibilant treble.”
