Entry-level Basshead choice, DT770 or D1000

Which one the Beyerdynamic DT770 PRO, or the Denon D1000.

Which one will provide more bass?

I love gaming too and I wear them for hours at a time. My HD485's pads are getting worn down.

just MORE bass? definitely the dt770s, however the d1000 bass is still there and is probably better for a wider range of music. If you only want bass though, the dt770s would be good.

I assume the denons would have more bass. I dont have any experience with the d1000 since I have the d2000 but if theyre anything alike then youre probably going to like them better than the dt770. Comfort wise I'd take the denons.

I found my dt770 to be great for gaming because of the velour pads. No sweating, and they are very comfy. Also, you will get some good mid-bass for explosions, gunfire etc...

The D1000 are a bit more congested in the bass area though, but not much. I find the performance in all areas evolve pretty much the same amount (or linear if you will) through out the series of D1000 D2000 and D5000. Love em all.

770 more bass, 1000's better all around

I prefered the denons for ease of listening. The 770's have way more bass.

So I haven't really got a good answer, the Denons are around 100, the DT770s around 145ish.

How large are your ears? Anything other than 'small' and you will probably find the d1000 uncomfortable.

Also, the blu-tak mod on the DT770s makes them a much better headphone. You won't lose much if any quantity, but you'll gain a lot in quality (and it'll stop overpowering the mids, which makes it a much better headphone for music). Of course, I wouldn't be surprised to find that a similar mod to the Denon's would likewise benefit them.

I just got the 770's ;-) I sold the Denons to help finance the "upgradeitus" I needed the money for the $300 dollars i spent on the ATH-A900LTD.
