Quick question:   Will the older beyer pads (03 version) fit the new DT880 (both are premium version). And will the old bayer pads fit DT770 Pro as well?   Thanks!

I've been lurking around here for a long time and gone through countless of threads on the archives for the past few weeks. After a decade long of constant upgrades, I have finally arrived at a decent loudspeaker-based system at home which I can live with for a long time. I've decided to call it...

Always these tough decision...   I'am in search of an amp for my Beyer (and occasionally the TF10). Afters hours of reading the Lehmann-Copy sounds like a reasonable decision, since their SQ is pretty well received. Problem is: i need a dac to compansate for my onboard soundcard which would...

What do you guys think, I've heard great things about both of these guys!   Although I'm looking for a Nutrall head phone... so my question is which of these two is most nutral!

As of late I've noticed that my DT880 Pro (250ohm) are having issues with bass response. It sounds as though they are unable to handle certain low notes and I get this nasty vibrating/buzzing as if the diaphragm is going to give. It's cringeworthy. I've read things like this could be caused by a...

Hi all,   First of all I'm pretty new to Hi-Fi area; before I've been interested in IEM, but not an expert either.    Now I get this DT880/600 ohm as a gift and don't know where to start. My question & choices may sound very entry-level to some of you, but I really want to set up an...

I am torn. I was set on the SRH-940's, but then I started to read about the DT880's (250 and the 600). I will mainly use these headphones on my ipod, unamped, while I travel (on airplanes). I listen to 95% rock music (Foo Fighters, Pink Floyd, etc).    The fact that the DT880's are semi-open...

Due to my current situation, I am in need of a second headphone because of a couple of issues I am having. I currently own an ultrasone signature pro which is closed, so I want this one to be open since I've never really owned an open headphone before. I did a bunch of tests with EQ to see what...

 Hey everyone. I was purchasing some new computer hardware, and came across word that an amplifier plus a dac provides really good sound quality for headphones. I am currently just using a claro halo to power my BeyerDynamic DT 880's 600ohm, and was wondering if i would benefit from getting an...

I got my dt 880s today and tested them out on my PS3 and PSP. ( i hooked them up to my fiio e9k/e17 )   Now what i found is that:   - Playing PS3 games the Sound was ok. - Playing PSX games with the ps3, the Sound was very good. - Playing PSP, the Sound was very good.   Now i...

Hi guys, I am new here so please excuse me if it has been discussed before.   I am looking for an amp (and maybe a DAC) for under 150$ to power my Dt880 (250 omhs)   I don't really care if it's used or not, but I would assume that something used for 150$ is way better than something new...

The title pretty much says it all. Amazon has the DT880 at $249 at the moment and I'm thinking of buying it while the price is still low, but I'd like to know if my Fiio E17 portable amp will be powerful enough to drive it. Any takers?

So I purchased a pair of 600Ohm DT880 on Amazon for a decent price last week. Yesterday I received the headphones only to find that they shipped out the 32Ohm version :( Amazon has amazing return/replacement policy, but it looks like there's going to be another week of waiting.   Does anyone...

Hi,   Can someone do a brief comparison of DT880, HD600, ESP 950 & A1000X please? I'm thinking about getting one of them (Next month is my brother's birthday). I have DT880's myself and I love it, but still I think maybe the other headphones to be a better choice. and If I know the...

Assuming both are driven by a good headphone amp, will the T5p offer a higher level of playback than the DT880? What are the expected improvements or differences? Refinement and detail? Are the differences appreciable or subtle at best?   I am looking to purchase the T5p as it appears to be...

Hello everybody, I need an amp for my DT880 600 ohms and I'm undecided between the following amps: Violectric V100 and the Lafigaro-Darkvoice 339. I know they are quite different, but they have in common a feature that help me manage my problem: my hearing ability is lower on my right ear...

I have recently bought Beyerdynamic DT880 Premium 600ohm to use for a wide range of things, from videogames to listen to IPod. I already had AKG Q701 and they are perfect except the volume matter, and the Beyers are even worse. I don't want to give some large bucks for the amp or a DAC device if...

I'm not sure whether to get DT880 or DT990. Most comparisons between the two note the difference in the bass. The 990 has more bass than the 880. But Grado SR225 are the only headphones I've ever owned, so I'm hoping someone who has owned both Grados and a Beyerdynamic can tell me where the...

Alright I'm pretty set on getting one of these headphones. I'm just wondering witch pair would be better suited for me. I make electronic music. Are the 880's way better than the 770's in sound? And should I use closed headphones like the 770's or open like the 880's. Aaaaaand should i go with a...

Hello everybody,   I am totally new to mid- to high-end audio and since I don't understand it very well yet, I would really appreciate your help. As an FPS gamer, I have completely neglected audio in favor of video, so much so that my current setup is an ASUS Xonar DG, a 5 year old set of...

Hi guys   I am looking specifically for a closed set of cans. I have dt-880 and really like it's comfort and how it sits on my ears. I assume 770 is same size/etc just closed version. I am not worried about sound quality per say (it'll be used to watch TV in a noisy environment, plugged into a...

Could someone please give me some guidance on how these models compare soundwise and which you think would best suit my needs?    DT 880 32 ohms AD 900 AKG 550 Q701 (I've heard these are difficult to drive)   I'll be driving the headphones primarily through my iphone 4 and macbook...

Hello Head-Fi members,   I've been wanting to get a pair of high quality headphones for a while and now that I have to dough, I'm ready to buy.    I've been looking at the DT-880's and I really like the look of them. I will be using them on an external music player (iPod, smartphone...)...

Simple enough, would you say that the DT 880 PRO would be a good recommendation as someone who loved the DT 990 PRO ?    I've heard people say it sounds same but less bass, but I've also heard people say it sounds quite a bit different after all it is a different headphone entirely.   ...

Title says it all, what is the best Amp (preferably portable) for the Beyerdynamic DT 880 Pro's 250 ohm for around $60.   So far the Fiio E11 is on the top of the list, but I barely know anything about Amps.   Cheers
