What DT 770 Pro owners say

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!

dt 770 100% and hyperx quadcast microphone! Best combo ever and "cheap"

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've had it for 5 years now and I still consider it the best of the 600 series

At $250-$350 I would consider giving these a go at $600 they are a pass.
