Are we going to talk about these new Beyer/Massdrop 177x?

I'm not a fan of the stock headband. Not on these, not on the DT 1770 not on the DT 1990; just not a fan :D It gives me a nasty hotspot and while a bit of bending can go a long way in the end it's down to the headband itself. Tonight I finally took the time to swap out the stock headband for something else and started with the DT 770 pro headband (the ones with the buttons) and it makes a world of difference for me. The headband for the TYGR / Custom one etc. works quite good as well but looks worse.
I might go back to the stock headband once I removed a bit of foam just around the middle part of the band. The HD650 and HD560S headband is so much more comfortable for me.

Has anyone tried the DCA Aeon 2 Noire? I have the dt 177x go and I am thinking of either selling them and getting the noire, or getting a balanced cable and new earcups for this one and finishing my closed-back hp search.

For anyone looking for an affordable 2.5mm balanced cable for the DT177X, I have found one:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/275402551515?var=575905442609

$23 for 5 ft, $28 for 6.5 ft. plus shipping ($3.20 for me). The cable is thin and very flexible, feels well built. Especially good for portable use (most third party cables are at least 2x the price and a lot thicker).

Thanks so much for the tip - picked up one just now. 😊
