    DT 770 pro 80 too much bass

    Actually the DT770 Pro 80 doesn't have too much bass after it is ran in, or having ample power in supply.   Another easy fix is the damping ring mod. Just remove the damping ring around the driver and the bass will be less, you also get more detail and bigger soundstage...

    beyerdynamic T5p: Photos and first impressions.

    Quote: In fact, the cost of manufacturing an OCC cable can surpass the material cost of the driver unit. You pay for the R&D and tech cost for the headphone driver. While I really really like Beyer headphones, I can't compliment on the cable quality. It is known that the manufacturers...

    Any cheap headphones?

    Quote: Haven't play with the Monoprice, but if the choice are between this particular model of Sennheiser and Beyerdynamic, the DT235 definitely flare better; and I would get the PX-100 from Sennheiser if have to. The real thing is, I am so impressed by the PX100 and would get a pair later.

    Considering using my DT990s as a portable

    If you are going to use your DT990 in office I think it is permissible. However if you mean portable that would not be a wise choice. For noise isolation you would need a closed headphone, in your case the DT770 Pro80 seems to be your best choice.

    Seriously recommend the Beyerdynamic DT235 and Sennheiser PX-100.

    beyerdynamic T5p: Photos and first impressions.

    Quote: Ah yes, the T5p has a much, much tighter attachment to the cup than the other models. Grab some tools to pick it out, but you gonna make some cosmetic scratch even with the best of care. You would also like to check on the diameter of your replacement cable and the original cable...

    beyerdynamic T5p: Photos and first impressions.

    Quote: Not hard. Taking off the cups are optional but will make the process much easier. Remove the pads, remove the holding frame, remove the driver, cut the cable, remove the metal band holding the cable. I bet you know the rest. Beyerdynamic has some of the most sensible design in the...

    Hi, the T5p has been using a replacement headband awaiting restoration, while both got recabled to 18awg occ cable. Was expecting some attention to the wallpaper tho!

    beyerdynamic T5p: Photos and first impressions.

    After much listening, I confirm that T1 is a superior headphone to T5p in a silent, ideal environment. There are quite some constrain on the T1 however, in noise isolation, power requirement, etc. If you are listening it with an amp in your own room, then T1 is superior. But if you are at the...

    Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro Review

    Quote: Forgot to mention, I swapped the cable to Neotech OCC , dunno if it's the reason. Btw, the Greater China distributor gave-away the first 88 pairs with an upgrade cable from Dynamique... sounded better than the stock, much.   Also, the COP driver size/interior room is much bigger...
