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

So I got this nifty FR chart and I'm wondering... which is better or rather which is has more accurate sound quality? Ultimatley I'd like one of these two, and I hoping for a neuatrual can with that would be good for most genres like Classical Jazz, Rock, Folk, Accoustic Rock and a little...

 So I just bought the DT880's with 250ohm impedance and haven't gotten an amp or dac yet. I heard that there is a possibility of damaging them from under driving them. I'm using them on my computer right now and I can get them louder than I even need. Is there more to driving headphones than...

How much would is cost to replace two diaphragms for the Beyerdynamic DT880 Pro 250-Ohm? How much would it cost me to send it to Beyerdynamic for repair/replacement of two diaphragm? How much would it cost me to order two diaphragms and repair/replace it myself?

I noticed a huge price increase in the DT990 600ohm headphones in the last few days.  This wasn't my next planned upgrade as I wanted to get the tube amp first for my DT880s, then fix my mobile situation, then add the DT990s.   As prices fluctuate on Beyers, should I just ignore it, stick to...

Hi all,   I'm a relatively a 'newby' concerning audiophile headphones. This week I got my hands on a Beyerdynamic DT880 (Premium 250 ohm), and I quite love them. However, I know that my USB Creative X-FI HD is not enough for this headphone ...

So, I just got the Beyer DT880's (250ohm) and a Fiio E17 amp, but I'm having a bit of an issue.   To get to a pretty loud and full (but not ear blasting) level, the Fiio has to be turned up to around 55 on 12db, but around there it starts to peak and distort slightly. When it is set to 6db...

This Headfonia round-up of the DT880, HD650 and K701;   http://www.headfonia.com/old-school-trio-akg-k701-beyer-dt880-sennheiser-hd650/3/   ...seems to suggest that the HD650 has a 'much weightier' bass presence than the DT880?   However, I currently own both, and cannot hear that...

They sound great, look great, they're comfortable, light, not real expensive...  what's not to like?  So why do I get the impression that many people here just don't like them?   If you don't like them, tell us why.

Hey guys, this is my first post here at Head-Fi!!   I'm looking at picking up an amp or two for the following sets of headphones that I own:   Sennheiser HD598 Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 250 Beyerdynamic DT880/600 (Balanced 4 Pin XLR) Beyerdynamic DT990 Premium 250   My source is a...

So my E7 came in today. I excitedly connected it with the ipod dock cable to my Iphone 3gs and began to turn it up, and up and up and at 60 it stopped and was no louder than my Iphone itself. I plugged back and forth between amp and Iphone and if there was any difference in volume it was slight...

Good afternoon fellow Head-Fi’ers. So, here is my dilemma…   After reading a ludicrous amount of threads on here (No really, it was getting quite ridiculous) I finally bit the bullet and went for a pair of Ultrasone Pro 900’s. Received them a few days ago and have been burning them in since...

I have the Beyerdynamic DT-880 Pro (250 Ohm) headphones and a desktop PC with an Asus Xonar DX and also a Laptop (Thinkpad L520) with its onboard sound. If I take the laptop to the university I often use my old AKG K141, they don't sound that well but they isolate much better. At the moment I...

The main genre of music I like is rock and metal, in this case, I would choose a grado. However, I want a headphone with a bigger soundstage and more bass than the grado. I will also be using these headphones a lot for gaming, so I need a good soundstage for imaging and a decent bass impact. I...

250 ohms. It's the middle of the road in terms of resistance. So how do the 701's stack up?   These are brand new Q701's. Like they were in the package 5 minutes ago. I'm listening to a hard rock song on an E9/E7 combo, and I have the volume on the E9 at just over 1/4 way and it's just under...

Hello everyone!! I recently bought the Beyerdynamic DT 880 Pro (250 ohm) and I'm more than happy with its performance. Now, in the next few days I will start my own home audio system, which will contain a vintage technics turntable, a Kenwood Ka 1500 vintage stereo amp and speakers (I don't know...

Little background : I'll try to keep it brief, I've been getting back into audio more heavily & focusing on headphones, not a full-size rig like my previous system.  I bought a pair of DT880s, "600Ohm" off of eBay a few months back, and an Objective 2 from a member here.    Wow, great bass...

I think I have my target locked for the next headphone purchase. I'm looking at the Hifiman 400 planars and I was wondering how they stack up to the DT880.

Hey headfi! If I use an fiio e9, is it better to get the Beyerdynamic 32ohms or the 250 ohms?

Hey guys need your help with this. I just bought a new soundcard to satisfy my gaming urges and give me a better edge in competitive (RPG/RTS) gaming while not limiting my ability to listen to my heavy metal (which won't be done often from the cans) or playing other games casually.   More or...

hi, anyone here got A/B compared this two difference type headphone?   HD25-1 II is close,small,portable,low impedance   DT880/250 is semi-open,big,not so portable,higher impedance...   which one more worth to own it?(consider how much money product that sound quality) ^ ^    ...

OK so i just got myself a pair of the D2000 and i was mainly looking at them for a can with more bass coming from the hd598.  And well they do have A LOT more bass but over all its more of a "fun" bass than what i was really looking for. As well as the mids are really recessed.  I have burned...

Well I picked up a set of DT770 Pro 80ohm and I love them, my Denon's are better sound quality wise but the 770's have way better isolation and I love the velour pads but anyway. I thought that the 770's were like entry level then the 880's then the 990's were top, but there not really priced...
