Sadly, no. I've heard amazing things about them though, and they have a good thump of bass, but not overpowering by any means.

thank you guys im now stuck with
1. Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro
2.XB700 or XB1000
3.Beyerdynamic dt770 32-Ohm

What source(s) are you plugging the headphones into?
The Beyer COPs are 16-Ohm and the XB700/XB1000 are 24-Ohm
Motherboard headphones output and sound card headphone output would have too high an impedance, causing problems like bloated bass (with less quality)
So you would only want to plug them into portable audio (& video) players or plug them into a portable amplifier (low impedance).
The O2 & Magni desktop amps have very low impedences, would also be good.
 
For the price of the DT770 32-Ohm, you can get the DT770 Pro 250-ohm and a headphone amplifier.

Get the 32 ohm one then.
