Solid Cans

Posted

Pros: Pretty big soundstage for closed back. Tight, punchy bass, nice highs, super comfortable. Good bang for buck.

Cons: Mids are a bit neglected, cable is integrated

I just got my pair, and I can say that it was well worth the money I paid for it. I have a homemade discrete amp to drive them which makes everything sound brilliant. Of course, that's what is needed to drive the 250 Ohm versions but I guess a portable amp will just barely do the trick.   For the price, I would say that these cans are worth the money as they have a pretty astounding soundstage for closed-back after I compared them to a pair of Sennheiser HD 650s that my friend has. In addition, the build quality is superb and it seems that they can withstand a couple of kicks or drops in their lifetime.    Good if you're a starting audiophile like me, well worth...

Very nice allrounders

Posted

Pros: Very comfy / Overall good sound quality / Nice lows / Price

Cons: No significant cons

Sound: Overall good sounding. My DT880 might sound somewhat more refined in the mids and highs, but in the lows and especially in the low-lows the DT770 beat em. They are probably my 2nd favorite closed headphone, right after my beloved Denon AH-D2000 (which seem to outperform all other headphones I tried). I think it's a good idea to EQ this cans, by slightly raising the mids and minimally taming the highs you can really improve the sound of this cans.   Comfort: The DT770/880/990 Pro are the most comfortable cans i tried, thumbs up!   Recommendation: Try em! It's simple as that...

Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO Closed Studio Headphones - 250 Ohms

Posted

Pros: Amazing sound stage for closed back, The frequency range on these is very impressive, they have great tight bass, clear mids, and pretty nice highs.

Cons: Integrated cable

I've only had a few hours to burn these in, but so far I am extremely impressed. As of now I have the FiiO E6 amp to drive them, and it pushes them better than I expected. Being that these are 250 Ohm there aren't many portable amps that can do these cans justice. They frequency range is what I'm most impressed with 5Hz-35000Hz. They provide bass if you want it, and it is pretty clean and tight. The mids are very enjoyable, and I believe the highs to be pretty good too. Overall these headphones are great, especially for their value.

Best $150 spent on cans

Posted

Pros: Too many to list

Cons: Cable

Set up for review: IPOD Classic 6th gen Electric Avenue PA2V2 amp WAV Files only.   Good: Brilliant sound from closed cans for the price Build Quality is top notch Sounds great with various genres (Funk, Soul, Jazz, Hip Hop)   Bad: Not a fan of the cable. Would prefer a straight cable   Need to know: These really need an amp for portable use.

Pros: Exelent Bass response and mids. As comforatable as wearing a dead lamb on your head.

Cons: highs are a tad light, bass ever so slightly muddled in the extreames.

Great, Definatly need burning in to help with the highs. Nice soundstage for closed. So mother lovin comfortable. Perfect pair with a Hi-FiMan EF-2A Dac/Amp.

Sturdy and awesome sound

Posted

Pros: Warm mid, strong bass

Cons: Heavy Twisted cable

This is one good headphone with the characteristics of warm mids, pronounced bass, and with clean trebles. The only thing that bugs me is the very long twisted cable, heavy for mobility

Nice headphone for Audio Engineers!

Pros: Design, Comfort, Durability, Soundstage, Value, and they are great for mixing.

Cons: I hear these as too harsh without the extra power from an amplifier.

All I'm going to say is that in terms of audio professionals these are really a bargain and qualified for the job. I know that many audiophiles prefer studio reference monitor-like headphones, but I can't make the excuse that these sound harsh when I'm mixing. They exposed flaws in my mixes the first time I reviewed a track with them. The extra bass response that might sound loose or muddy in some tracks allowed me to tighten up the bass in my own tracks, and not just ignore it when I put these on. Initially I purchased these headphones for walking around listening, but once I heard them I decided to use them for the tracking, mixing, and mastering and take my Shure SRH940s with...

Newbie review: Excellent, but I need to EQ them

Posted

Pros: Comfy, very good sound, not pricey

Cons: A bit sharp treble cause fatigue for me, had to use EQ (maybe I'm just over-sensitive)

Let me first say that I'm absolutely a newbie when it comes to headphones, having only had one proper pair previously. I ended up buying these and thought I would share my experience as it only had one review.   I previously had a pair of Koss Pro 4AAT that I was using at work with a PC. I had been using them for a few years, and was pretty happy with them, but they were so damn uncomfortable, so I decided I had to get some new ones.   My requirements were: Closed (I share an office) Comfy Clean sound, but bass is also important to me Music: I listen to lots of different stuff, but not so much jazz, country or classical. Mostly electronica and...
