Fantastic review. Great job really laying out the pad wear and how it effects sound and touching on the build quality. I adore my dt770 pro 80 ohm. There just something familiar about grabbing them for day to day stuff even though I own more technical headphones.

[@WheezyTech]

Exactly this. Every time I've been using another headphone, even ones far superior I put on my 770's and I feel like I've come home. I often forget I'm wearing them, I might have finished playing a game, watching a video or whatever hours ago but I never took them off and they never get uncomfortable so often I just leave them on all day.

I LOVE the DT770 Pro 80 Ohm without any EQ on it for listening to music. Especially Metal, even more so Gothic Metal, sounds sooo wonderful with these. The treble really shines on the female voices and the bass impact is just as well awesome. I love it. Somehow Beyerdynamic did hit my taste to 100% how I like it so that I dont need an EQ for them at all.

[@erebus1010]

@@fgboii4687 (might be a little late of a response, but) you can use the 80 ohm version on a smart phone or laptop, but it’ll be very quiet, even at max volume. If you plan to use these headphones for mobile use, then get 32 ohm.

[@CHROMIUMHEROmusic]

old comment but same. before I switched to linux I used to use my headphones with sonarworks to 'flatten' the sound, but since then Ive just been listening without EQ. And I love it!! they sound so crisp and a wonderful stereo image

[@nostgeoffhi-fi]

Germans would know about gothic metal lol doesnt surprize me if their headphones just happen to match their music as well.

[@squidwardstesticles5914]

Idk why these have such a reputation for being so v-shaped. I have these (80 ohm) and they’re way less v-shaped than other headphones I own which no one really says are v-shaped. The highs never bother me like a lot of headphones do. That can be a big problem for me because I listen to a lot of metal, so obviously I like to crank the volume, but on a lot of headphones I can’t get it loud enough because the highs start to hurt my ears. That never happens with these, and there’s never any sibilance, but the highs are definitely still there. They sound great for string instruments too. The bass also isn’t insane like some people would have you believe. They have excellent, tight bass that can be really punchy and aggressive when needed, but when it isn’t they sit back in the mix and never overpower anything like many bass heavy cans do. That’s also a big problem for me because I find a bit of extra bass makes heavily distorted guitars sound boomy and shitty, but it’s perfect on these. These are without a doubt my favourite headphones for metal. My only complaints are the lack of sound stage (but they’re closed monitoring cans, so you can’t really fault them for that) and the attached wire. One thing I don’t hear people talking about though is that these need a bit of a break in period before they’re really comfortable (at least mine did). Some of the pivot points needed to loosen up a bit and maybe the pads needed to squish down or something, but they got much more comfortable as I wore them. Edit: Mine are about 2 years old now and the pads are noticeably more squished down than brand new ones are, so keep that in mind. I also wanted to say that after watching the rest of the video, I’m glad I got the 80 ohm version. I was kicking myself for not getting the 250 ohm version because I thought they’d sound a bit better and I’d vastly prefer a coiled wire, but after hearing your comparisons and seeing the graphs I’m really happy I have the 80 ohm ones because they sound like they’re much more of what I want out of a headphone.

[@RADERFPV]

I just got the 80 ohm version yesterday, and can say with certainty that you definitely want an amp with the 80 ohm cans. You'll have to crank up your phone/ipad volume to full max to get just a medium level of volume. It's fine, but it's not enough to please most people. They work great with my motu m4 audio interface though, so I'm definitely keeping them. Just figured I'd mention in case your on the fence about which ohm version to get. If you plan on using your phone mostly, definitely get the 32ohm version.

[@CknSalad]

Yeah, I can validate this as well. My old audioengine d1 dac/amp didn’t have enough omph. Even with my somewhat new jds labs atom stack, I have to crank the knob to around the 12-1 o clock position on low gain.

[@niraii9070]

Can i plug it directly on my pc though ? (In a jack)

[@RADERFPV]

@@niraii9070 You can, but the volume will be low with these being 80ohm's. You'll want a mini headphone amp, or get the lowwer Ohm version.

[@glenchaos9]

Audio interface is needed for 80ohm to work best

[@maulcs]

Based on multiple measurements I've seen, it looks like the 250 ohm version is more v-shaped. The 80 ohm looks more balanced. Not sure why the opposite has been getting repeated for so long.

[@LordQueezle]

[@LiqnLag]

I picked up a set of these cans years ago but, as I found out in an odd fashion, I have a larger head than average head. It took a few days of leaving the headphones stretched over the box they came in to make them comfortable to wear all day. Something to keep in mind if you find these amazing headsets a bit too tight when you first get then. They really are bullet proof!

[@atletasound]

Nice video Bro - Thx for the feedback with the DT 770's

[@bobsondugnutt7526]

I got the 80 ohm a few years ago based on a review I saw. The bass was fantastic and quick as you describe. Not a lot of mid-bass which is great (I find stuff like the hd650 and koss porta pro to have an ear-clogged underwater sound because of too much mid bass for my ears). The soundstage, imaging, and build quality are awesome. The only issue was the "mount beyer" treble peak. I would listen to guitar solos and they would sound great until hitting that certain note. Way too loud in comparison to the rest. Either way, these are my favorite headphones.

Yes you do deserve more subs than this for sure. Subscribed. Quick question, does the 80ohm version work well on the focusrite solo you have behind you? I bought the dt700 250ohm version and the focusrite was not enough for them, they were not loud at all so I returned them. I wasn't gonna buy a headphone amp...

[@SocietateaAscendenta]

For people like me with not so good and trained ears, I consider a headphone with big bass (but CLEAR and FAST) and high peak around 8-10k, to detect the sibilance much more easier when I mix, a blessing. Ordered this today - eager to “see” how it sounds!

[@EliteRock]

The issue with pad degradation is intractable really. I've been using Senn HD580s (with HD600 grilles) for almost 20 years which have similar pads to the DT 770, and it's always a (welcome) surprise how much the bass improves in quantity and extension when I replace them (on the fourth set so far). I've just ordered DT 770 Pro 250's because (after all these years) I fancy a bit more bass extension occasionally (I've started to really appreciate the double-kick work that many contemporary hard rock drummers use - love the "serene swan" effect when they seem to leisurely keep time on the kit while machine-gunning intricate 1/16th-note fills/patterns with the kick). ETA >> if you read this, have you considered how the two different versions are interacting with the amp used? Have you tried multiple amps? I'm using a fairly refined Cmoy (opamp) design with a 24v (Li-ion battery) supply and split rail (IOW +12/-12V), and although it should theoretically be fine with 80 ohms I know that ultimately it has limitations in it's current headroom (because of the rail splitter chip) and should be better with the 250 ohm load which I why I went with them (but probably going to swap the cable for a straight one).

[@metal571]

Yeah regardless of how much bass each unit has anymore for the 80 ohm, the big difference is definitely that the 250 ohm not only has more treble but the air elevates in addition to the treble spike. Regardless of variation, this characteristic above 10k has been pretty consistent with 250 vs 80 in my experience. I keep around a decade old or so DT770 80 ohm because the soundstage is immense and the bass is so much fun. K371 is a much better headphone for hearing what was actually recorded

[@WheezyTech]

Yeah I think once I've done the cable mod on the 80 Ohm, my old 250 Ohm is being retired

[@metal571]

Or you can try the Custom Studio which is supposed to be just a DT770 80 ohm but with an adjustable bass port and removable cable from the factory. Not sure why there isn't more hype behind it

[@MartinLeschinski]

@@metal571 think the adjustable Bass is for many a no go in terms of seriosness. The Feature has a toy charakteristic. I have my 80 Ohm Version, since many years and it did never bother me. Since over a year a use my Elegia as closed back, though coming back from time to time is always fun

[@WheezyTech]

I've wanted to try the Custom Studio for a while because of the removable cable mostly. But the price has generally put me off, I mean if its basically a 770, I'm not sure a removable cable and bass ports are worth 50% more cash. It is probably a neater solution than drilling holes in the chassis for a mod, but maybe less fun?

[@Zarathustra-H-]

Interesting. What amp were you using for the testing of the 250Ohm? Considering they are tough to drive, maybe that had an impact? I've had a different experience than you. I bought my first 80Ohm set of DT770 Pro's in early 2009. It was my first good set of headphones, replacing my old cheap and beaten up 1990's vintage Sony MDR CD250's I inherited from my dad. When I first got my 80ohm set in 2009, I struggled with them. I thought the highs were harsh and sibilant enough to make me cringe at times. The Head-Fi forums peeps suggested I "break them in" with pink noise. I didn't actually believe this would do anything but I gave it a try, running them for a week straight with pink noise on a loop. I'm not convinced that did anything, but over time I got used to them. It was probably a case of breaking in my ears more than it was breaking in the headphones. That said, I bought the 80hom version specifically because I wanted to run them straight out of the 3.5mm line out on my laptop and iPod. Back then dedicated DAC's and headphone amps were - shall we say - less prevalent than they are today. Like you, I prefer open backed headphones for music listening, (this is what I use my Sennheiser HD650's, or rather, the Massdrop HD6xx version for) but I like to keep a closed set around for when things are noisy. These days, I have a decent DAC (Second gen multibit Schiit Bifrost 2) hooked up with balanced cables (to avoid noise) to a first gen Schiit Jotunheim. The Jotunheim has ample power, so a couple of years ago, I decided to pick up a set of 250ohm set to see how they differed. Side by side, I find them pretty similar. The 250Ohm set is maybe a little bit more civilized, and I think I like them better, but it is really very close. (Yes, I used new pads for the comparison) To your point, this may be up to unit variance. Who knows.

[@fry577]

Thanks for the video ! I see the boss katana in some shots, are you using the 770dt 80 ohm with this as well ? I have the 990 which I use with my katana and my helix, but I find them too bassy and a bit muddy. The rule of thumb for the helix is 12ohm x 8 > 96 ohms impedance for the headphones. Would you still recommend the 80 ohms for that usage, or rather the 250?

I suspect a lot of this comes down to individual variances during manufacturing and not the impedance of each model. I just replaced an 80 ohm set with tame highs that were perfect for all-day music listening (and that I should have never sold in the first place) with another 80 ohm, and these new ones are painfully bright. I've personally found the change in sound signature when replacing the pads to be extremely minor, though this could be because the adhesive failed long before the foam collapsed both times I needed to replace them.

[@advarkmerrygoround1425]

Thank you for your video, but I have a question. How did you carry out the frequency response test?, all I can gather is that the two responses are relative, but not knowing what the response of the microphone that sampled the curve was, it is impossible to ascertain the correct curve. As an old fart from a professional recording background, I thought I should point this out. From my research, I found out that the 80 Ohm version has a longer voice coil former so that the 80 Ohm version can have longer excursions (ie be louder) and still be within the magnetic flux. Difficult to explain verbally, much like trying to explain architecture by smell. Industry standard frequency response microphones are made by B&K and cost a fortune, they are used to accurately measure frequency response. Sorry I'm waffling. I love the 770 Pros 80 ohm. Before I always used the Sennheiser Professional HD 25, but have found their construction leads to problems. The plugs into their drivers fail which leads to them being terrible to use. I changed over to the Beyerdynamics and have not had any problems since. I listen at high volume and the comfort of the 770's is perfect for long and detailed listening. I would recommend the 770 Pro 80 ohm. Waffle over, and out. :-))

If you want an AKG i heard that the K612 Pro is better sounding than the 700 series. I would personally not use a v-shaped headphone for mixing because it is not neutral and so you will compensate for the v-shaped sound, not saying that the DT770 Pro is bad just not neutral

But the question is, could this be good enough to replace HD700? I am not a studio guy, i like to listen to music and game with them. I am perfectly happy with the HD700's but kinda want some noise isolation. But if i sacrifice too much of sound quality im not sure, also HD700 is known for theyre great sound stage ...... not sure :o

[@ludwig2952]

Great video👍，I’ll get the 80 ohm one

[@VillisDileim]

everyone saying if you want to plug into phone or laptop for music listening go for 32 ohms but my question is ..is 32 ohm version good for MUSIC PRODUCTION?

[@rahulchakrabarty9083]

Someone is actually doing a good reviews.

[@mm-rw3hi]

the wear might explain the "burn in period"

[@WheezyTech]

You mean that some people might attribute pad wear as 'burn in' when its actually the pads changing thickness with age and affecting sound? That's a good point, I think most headphones are affected by this to some degree, but the 770's are one of those where its really quite a stark change as they wear.

[@AlUcArD852741963]

I see you have a Boss Katana and a Les Paul in the background, and I'm currently looking for a pair of headphones that can be used for practicing quietly with the guitar, with the headphones plugged into the guitar amp. What impedance would you recommend?

[@TomBabula]

Should I get dt770 80Ohms or ath-msr7b? Interesting that some recommend 250ohms over 80Ohms for tamer treble but I guess the comparison between old and new pads explains it!

[@ricardogonzalez-om4gn]

Which one is better for mixing; The 250 ohm or the. 80 ohm?

[@user-wq5kv2hu2s]

They need a good breaking in before the sound really comes true i found after a couple weeks they sounded a bit warmer

[@De-M-oN]

I had many years old pads replaced very recently and I thought I bought a new headphone 😅 The difference to new ones is massive. I definitely will replace them more often now :D

[@antontserepanov9720]

Mate, great review and video style! I enjoyed it a great deal :)

[@donvittoriosierra]

Do you think the new cheap akg k361 sounds better than these?

[@jose23rojas]

Did you use an amp/DAC with the 80 ohm version?

[@CknSalad]

You will definitely need a dac/amp to make the most out of it. Get a $100 dac and $100 amp (jds labs atom stack, schiit audio, etc.). On my old audioengine d1 dac/amp combo, it wasn’t enough.

[@luismartins6687]

What headset would you choose for vinyl listening? These one or the Beats Studio3 Wireless?

[@albertovicinanza]

I really want to try the DT770 but unit variance and occasional build issues put me off. I've been on the market for a closed back but I can't choose, my K371, my SRH840 and my HM5 are nice but I want something else. I might get a K361 and a Porta Pro or a CAL!, still can't decide though. Great vid as usual!

[@WheezyTech]

Thanks. If you get a good one the 770 is great but, I don't know if theres much else in the closed back space thats worth it for sub 100-150, other than the CAL as you said.

[@metal571]

Porta Pro is such a great headphone. A nice addition to the collection for something different. I don't think you need a CAL when you already have the 371

[@WheezyTech]

@@RichardoIpicyt Not sure I would recommend the M50x, as much as I have a soft spot for them. Unless you want a really portable and aggressive sounding headphone which is what they are good at. I find them too fatiguing and uncomfortable past 20 minutes. I get that some people still like them, and thats all good. They filled that portable headphone niche for a while but they've been pushed out by the rise of bluetooth headphones. They do make a good monitoring headphone, but surpassed by the K371. Its hard to recommend the M50x in 2020.

[@albertovicinanza]

@@metal571 Yeah, I will most likely buy the Port Pro, I need a headphone for when I walk my dog/am around but need to stay aware of my surroundings, I have the KSC75 on the partsexpress headband but when there's noise outside the bass is not enough. I was thinking about the K361 because I was really interested in how they sound, I like lean and bright headphones but I also like bass and their frequency response seems interesting and fit to my taste. The K371 are a tad shouty to my ears but despite being fairly good at identifying frequencies I haven't found which parts are the culprit yet, I don't find the 650 shouty for example and I usually like upper mid forwardness. One day I'll buy the K712 too. I remember when I said my 650 were my endgame, how naive of me lol DT770 appeal me but tbh they're not portable enough for when I'm outside and when I'm home I'm more likely to use open backs. Might still get one one day.

[@albertovicinanza]

@@RichardoIpicyt the M50x I discarded because of the frequent channel imbalance they show. I'm a sucker for separation and soundstage so and they also lack that apparently so I'd need to try them before buying them.

[@physkx]

My experience with a ~7yr old pair of 250ohms vs a newer pair of limited edition 80ohms was that the bass was definitely slightly boosted on the 80ohms over the older 250ohms. Your investigation into pad wear seems to show that it may have had a lot to do with what I thought I was hearing and was not something I considered at the time. I would highly recommend trying the MMX300s, I originally planned to upgrade my DT770 80ohms to the DT1770s but after comparing both to the MMX300 I ended up choosing them and still use them every day. Very similar sounding to the DT770 80ohm bass but the mid and treble response is more in line with the DT880 250ohm. Upper mid and high frequencies sound more revealing/detailed to me than any other Beyer I've heard. I have owned DT 770 80/250ohms, MMX300 32ohms, auditioned DT880 250ohms (too flat for me), DT990 250ohms (ouch), DT1770s (meh), yet to audition DT1990s.

[@WheezyTech]

Considering how I use my 770s as a general purpose and gaming headphone, I think I'd be all over the MMX300 if it wasn't 2-2.5x the price of the 770. Although I suppose you're getting a removable cable, build similar to a closed back 880 and a mic attached so yeah it's probably worth the extra. Definitely one I want to check out though for sure.

[@physkx]

@@WheezyTech I would agree that the removeable cable and mic would not be worth the extra price over the DT 770 IF they sounded the same.. but the MMX300 is clearly superior to my ears. It does not sacrifice the things I liked in the DT 770 80ohm such as the bass and soundstage, whilst improving on the upper mid and high frequencies clarity.

[@alexj517]

Seen a few reviews of this headset,but none as good this review 👍. Will be getting the 80 ohms for gaming.

[@shakilmohammad9731]

Higher the impedance, bigger the sound stage and vice versa. Am I correct??

[@Doa616]

Which would be good for recording metal ?? 80 or 250??

[@mrbartek3122]

are DT 770 PRO very good for EDM? I will be satisfied?

[@lucius564]

Which impedance-version would you recommend for plugging into guitar amp and mixing and recording music through an interface?

[@samed7515]

[@WheezyTech]

Personally, I'd get the 80 Ohm

[@ndirobrief]

hi bro, thanks for the precious informations (great video like always). i have a question please. iam a voice over, i have a "presonus studio 24c audio interface" and i wanna use this headphones for video explainer recording & documentary, so which one is better to use for this type of works, "the BEYERDYNAMIC DT 770 PRO-80ohm version" or "the 250ohm version".

[@GalaxyNexus1]

1 of the big selling points of these for me was the extra long uncoiled cord, however, after a year's use, the cord has become curled in 2 separate large areas. Are there any tips to uncurl it and get it straight again. When I try to pull it straight, it just curls back into a permanent coil.

[@billymcintyre6283]

I'm looking at either getting these, the 250 ohm or the audio technica ath mx50's using them on a boss katana MK2 which would you recommend?

[@groovyshades8055]

Thanks for your review question I’m looking for head phones to practice my bass guitar I will be using a Palmer pocket amp would these headphones be a good buy for my practice thanks

[@squidwardstesticles5914]

Ik this is a late response so idk how useful this’ll be, but they’re great for that. I bought mine for monitoring my guitar and they’re awesome. That’s pretty much what they’re made for actually. They’re very comfortable so you can wear them as long as you want, and they have a nice tight clamp so you can move around in them without worrying about them falling off. The 80 ohm version is actually pretty easy to drive so you don’t need to worry about having enough power for them. I’d want something more neutral for mixing, but just for practicing and tracking they’re prefect.

[@str8gamer964]

Just got these today for the first 30 mins I really didn’t like them thought about returning them butttt then I started to record some music with them and they are perfect for monitoring your audio with mixing with these things make my music super crispy

[@boniduron7893]

Can i just plug them in my pc or do i need a audio interface if yes wich one would you recommend under 50$ ?(yes i know im a complete noob when talking about audio)

[@ChildrenOfDesire]

The 80 ohm will probably be fine in terms of loudness with just plugging into your PC, but the better dac/amp included in an audio interface will be beneficial when using these headphones.

[@squidwardstesticles5914]

The 80 ohm ones are fine off of a pc, but you should probably get an amp because pretty much everything will sound better with one and you might need it for quieter music. Btw, audio interfaces are for using microphones and things like that, I’m pretty sure you’re just talking about an amp. A decent usb powered dac/amp is all you need for something like this. I don’t have any recommendations because I haven’t bought an amp in years so idk what’s good rn, but I hope I at least gave you a decent starting point to do some research

[@squidwardstesticles5914]

rickert ik, I have an interface that I use for connecting my guitars to my computer and it has a headphone amp. But most people don’t need one because they just use usb or 3.5mm microphones running straight into their computer for voice chat and that’s about it. It makes more sense in that case to just get a dedicated headphone amp because it’ll usually be cheaper, and a lot of the time interface amps are pretty weak so you’d get a better amp for less money. The amp in my interface is about half as powerful as a usb powered dac/amp I have that was a little over half the price

[@erwinyulista]

Hi, so for music mixing are the DT 990 pro's better? Thanks

How are you still below 50k sub? Your videos are amazing!

The 770 80ohm and the hd650 are the only two pairs of headphones that I will NEVER even consider selling. I've had both for almost a decade and I plan on taking them both to the grave with me.

[@jamesbittle2138]

Attached cables are stupid, and the Beyer straight cable is the worst. I have a pair of DT880 (600 ohm) with the straight cable and I am selling the pair because I despise the cable so much. I also own a pair of DT990 with the coiled cable, and I prefer it for sure.

[@WheezyTech]

I cable modded my 250ohm 770 with a mini xlr connector, now I can hot swap them with the K712, K371, and DT1990

[@jamesbittle2138]

@@WheezyTech Nice, I have a tendency to break stuff, so I will leave the cable mods to you for sure. Haha. I sold the headphones this morning so they-and their stupid cable-are out of my life forever. However, I am considering picking up a pair of DT770s as I can tolerate the coiled cable much more.

How do you equalize? Are you using a computer? Is there a way to global parametrically equalize on an android phone? I am thinking of getting this since AKG 371 is not available in my country. The DT 770 costs $200 US here compared to $150 in the US. Thanks
