I currently have the AKG 550s and while they do sound great for music, they aren't very good for games. They lack the sound stage and positioning. So I've been looking at some different options to find something that is on par, or better sounding than the K550s for around $300. Without...

Hi, I'm thinking about buying the dt 770 pro 250ohm headphones hearing they are great for studio use and such. I will be getting them for at home everyday use for movies music and such and I don't know if they would be good for these things. I am coming from the  sennheiser pc 330's  and I need...

I'd be using them with my laptop and my iPod. I'm guessing this would be under £150 (around $240) and I don't mind paying above or around that price range to get the sound that I'm looking for. I'm not bothered about noise isolation and I think I'd prefer an open headphone since I like my...

Hello ! I would like to make a small research on the following theme:    "Which is your favorite "closed can" Over-the-Ear headphones" - if you have to live with only one of these :)   Just write down the manufacturer, the model and a short explanation.   Thank you in advance !

I am planning to get the dt-770 pro 250, and pairing it with a fiio e17, for the least amount of $$$ I can (eBay :D) However, I see the 80 ohm version for so much cheaper. How much more different is the 250 ohm version to the 80 ohm version if they were hooked up the the fiio e17 amp? I...

Hey guys, I've been playing around with headphones since jan 2010. I've owned quite a few in this time. However nothing has been as enjoyable as the $20 Koss KSC75. So far I have owned: DT770 - 250ohm HD650 SR60i DT880 - 600ohm Porta Pro RS1i Now don't get me wrong each of those listed...

Has anyone used both of these headphones for gaming?  I am trying to find the best gaming headphones and I think I have boiled it down to these two.    I have a "Sound Blaster Z" PC sound card that can supposedly drive 600 ohms.  I currently have the AKG Q701 and I am mixed about how i feel...

so im searching for the best beyers for under 200. On amazon  i can get the custom one pros the dt770 pro 250 ohms or the dt990s 250 ohm... for extreme death metal deathcore dubstep hardstyle techno  and classical, what would be the better choice either paired with a fiio e07k?

Heya everyone!   I'm a new member here (I've had my account for a while but didn't have time unfortunately), I live in The Netherlands and I'm 21 years old. I'm in the market for a nice pair of headphones for my iPod Classic and to watch movies at night :).   I've upgraded my stereo system...

These headphones just arrived and I was wondering if it was normal for them to work fine without an amp. I have a creative x-fi SB0770 in my computer and for them to be audible I don't have to raise the volume over 25%. My friend however said that when he used his DT990pros 250Ohm he had to have...

Last year I finally took the plunge when my $20 headphones broke yet again on me, and the suggestion of my girlfriend was a good one: get a decent one. While she provided part of the price for my birthday, I added up to the grand total on the headphones.   DT770 Pro's were something I once...

Can someone enlighten me what would happen to the sound? I looked on the forums and the main thing I found is that Fiio's regularly have a warmer wound but a lesser soundstage, is this true?   I have purchased the 770 recently and I feel its lacking in warmth and fullness. Can anyone...

Hello. I know that this topic has been asked, and discussed before, but I am looking for an opinion on the two for listening through an iphone and Fiio E-7 portable amp, and also my desk top. I'm not doing anything fancy with them, like mixing, or any kind of studio work. I just love my music...

I want to tweak my worn out beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 250Ohm; give it a paint, upgrade the cable and add a piece of dampening material to the shell to fine tune the midrange. I'm quiet new to this so I had a question on choosing the right cable.   What should I look at when choosing the cable...

Hi!, a year and a half ago i asked for your help to buy headphones, i ended buying the Marshall Major, and yesterday they "passed away" now im in the need of some good headphones (yeah sorry for the bad english)   Im from southamerica Chile so things like headphones are a little bit more...

Guys i have narrowed these two down in my list,unfortnualtly havent had a chance to listen to either of them..   I am using on PC with soundcard,and for samsung s3.   They will be used for gaming mostly on PC..followed by Movies  then Rock/ambient/Indie Music.   Anyone know of these...

I have the option of getting both sets in the title on sale from local stores, but am having a hard time deciding on which one to choose.  I need a comfortable closed-back set for work, and wouldn't mind a little bit of bass.  I mostly listen to indie music, and a lot of it has a rock or folky...

Hi, is this a good match for my dt 770 250ohm? I can got it used for around 70$. thank you

Hey Head-Fiers.   I guess I should say that I've been lurking around here for a little while now, all thanks to an audiophile friend of mine who uses Ultrasone HFI-580s on the go and Grotto 325is in his little awesome setup. Before that I had no concept of really good sound (yep, I was one...

Would the digizoid ZO2 power these headphones or can someone reccomend an audio amp that would?   

I'm thinking about a new pair of phones. Let me start off with that I have a pair of Ultrasone HFI-780's that I am pretty happy with, though I'd like to upgrade from them. I really do like these phones and I am hesitant to buy anything else because I'm not sure the money is worth the reward. I'd...

Ok guys, SO.... I made my way down to the local Long & McQuade yesterday to see if they had anything I could try on and compare to my current Audio-Technica M50. Boy was I in for a surprise.   KRK KNS-8400         First, I tried on some KNS8400's by KRK. For the $149 (or close to that)...

Im looking into getting one of these headphones to use mainly for Late night movie watching but I would also use them for music and some gaming as well (when I dont need to chat of course). I'm just wondering which of these would be my best option? Any advice is appreciated thank you!

I currently have a Nuforce udac2 hooked up to a topping tp-21, Im using the Beyerdynamic DT 770 pro 250 ohm ,and the AKG K701 as my headphones. FLAC as source.   Udac2...
