NEED HELP!!!!
 
Hi, this or TH900? damn im in between.

Note that my preference is:-
 
Loving bass for EDM.
Loving Mids for vocals and stuff
Hating sibilant highs (heard of Pro900 highs and hated it)
 
will be paired this with Mojo

  Well they have very different sound signatures. I can throw pretty much anything at the DT 1770's whereas with the NH, I prefer to listen to Jazz or Classical with them; that's not to say they sound bad with other genre's but while listening to "Rega P25 plays 'Take 5' from Jazz at the Pawnshop" on YouTube, the NH were absolutely magical whereas the DT 1770's were merely great ^_^. Enjoy and do post impressions when you get yours.

 
Besides Jazz or classical, I liked NH with modern pop and rock recordings, whereas DT 1770 is used for older recordings, I find these 2 headphones seems to cover all my needs other than portability...

I hate sibilant highs too and this was a concern for me, but I am happy to report that the DT1770 do not have sibilant highs.

 
The bass and mids are excellent.
 
Don't know about the TH900

Just listening to my dt1770 with mojo and it's very lovely. Crystal clear, no sibilance to my ears, and a surprisingly large soundstage, very impressive.

I was told by the developer of the DT1770, that they will also offer a DT 1880/1990 in the future.

So not T1.2 then?

What about its bass? The punch bass from EDM songs.

If u ever heard custom one pro. I just a lil bit more punchier than that.

Why good bass headphones are sibilance. ... hating this a LOT

Sorry for typo.

I have also owned the Custom One Pro and I certainly prefer the bass of the DT1770. I never use to set my COP on maximum though. Only one setting from the maximum
 
The bass is punchy enough. It is also more textured and layered. In short better than the COP in my opinion.
 
People who can never seem to find a pair of headphones that are "punchy" enough are actually looking for the sensation that only hifi loud speakers can give. Headphones will never be able to do that. I use to be one of them until I realized that fact.
 
Maybe if it is possible, is to go and audition a pair.
 
Here is some quotes on the bass of the DT1770: -
 
"The DT1770pro might just be the best value for money high end model for bass enthusiasts.
Overall response is punchy and well controlled suiting a wide range of contemporary music styles." - Headphonic
 
"the DT 1770 Pro is fuller and warmer. There's an undeniable solidity to the sound of the DT 1770 Pro, and dynamics punch harder." - c|net
 
"the DT-1770 Pro, this is it, concussive, driving, powerful bass will be served up for your listening pleasure." - Headphone Guru
 
Hope that helps
 
P.S I sold my Custom One Pro and have no regrets at all.

Well I just took hold of the DT 1770. Color me impressed, this is one bombastic and euphoric sounding headphone and what's with this clarity. It doesn't even have a hint of harshness.

I've heard both the TH-9XX and wasn't really impressed. The DT1770 Pro's are more engrossing and dynamic IMO, especially after removing the removable felt liner inside the cup.

guys, I end up won the bid of TH600. Gimme a month at least to try this with Mojo!

 

[Slaphead]

I've only had these just over a week, and I've now found that I need to take a break from them.

They are so good that they're ruining my portable experience with my daily driver HD25s

 

[dryvadeum]

Just to chime in. I have the dt1770s and th900s and id recommend the 1770s as i think theyre better value for money and generally a better all rounder in terms of sound. The main difference is that the th900s lend the music a somewhat live feel to the sound as tho youre there at the venue. The 1770s just sound like a recorded piece of music. The th900s can get a bit peaky and twangy - for lack of a better word - when the music gets complex.

I also have the mojo and find the 1770s to pair really well with it.

Just get a pair of Dt1350s and call it a day. To me they sound like a more balanced mini version of the 1770s.

I already have, and they are brilliant - it's just that I prefer the HD25s on my commute as I know I can bash them, drop them and just have them banging around in my bag and no harm will come to them.
