I had the DT 880 250ohm back in 2017 right after getting the K702 after asking for recommendations here. I found that the DT880 back then was very bright in comparison to the K702 and had way less sub bass as well. I also thought it had the hardest hitting fastest bass I have heard until then, which back then I didn't like that much, so I sold it.
Today, to get that same experience back I bought the DT880 250ohm yet again because I wanted to have that fast punchy bass experience back for some music. I was dissapointed. It sounded much slower than I have in memory, it had much better subbass extension and was less treble heavy than in memory as well. It felt like I had bought a completely different headphone.
My question is how this is possible? Can my memory be this bad? Was there perhaps a revision or did I maybe somehow got the wrong driver in the one from 2017?
I really can't explain it.
It's definitely not that I tried different headphones that are better so I don't appreciate it anymore, because I compared it to my K702 in 2017, which I still own and is still my main. It's funny because back then the K702 sounded slow in comparison to the DT880 I had but since I sold it and tried a lot of other headphones, none other than the DT880 really sounded faster in bass than the K702, so right now it seems the K702 actually has the fastest bass. Maybe someone knows whats up here.
