Gotta say my DT-770 pro 80 ohms sound 100x better on the Valhalla 2! Thanks for the tip! Breathed new life into them, for sure!

Yepp some righteous sounds coming out of dt770 and valhalla2, some background noise, but so much better than just mobile and FiiO. Breathes easier, better bass, better everything! HUGE difference! Stoked! Maybe I won't sell those cans after all!

Some annoying buzzing or interference, but will plug in hd600 here to A/B. Headphones which cost twice as much as dt770.

Not much difference between hd600 and dt770 to be honest..on Valhalla2. Maybe a bit more detail on hd600. Think dt880 is my endgame for this amp. We'll see. Note my source is tidal hifi through modi/magni stack and Valhalla2 amp. Surprised how good the dt-770 sounded through Valhalla 2.

Well plugging in dt770 into Valhalla2 was amazing! Better bass, soundstage, everything! 100x better! Thanks for the tips! Breathed new life into old pair of cans. Now I'm not sure I want to sell them! (but have to at 11 cans now, just ordered dt880 600ohm). So Beyer and Valhalla2 really does work.

I would suggest the HD800S since you already have the 600, its the next logical step and if you like the 600 you should also like the 800S.

Just my 2 pence / cents and 8 trillion dolla bills in zimbabwe.

Oh and did I say I broke my HD800S today, and half an hour later bought a new pair 😂

I bought a new pair of dt770 pro 15 minutes after I broke my last pair! Stupid non-replaceable cables. ;)

Well the good ol hd600 are still pretty good on Valhalla2, curious if dt880 600 ohm are any better. Then of course there are the dt 1990 etc, but a bit pricey. May have to wait a while, were not in stock when I ordered looks like. Also wondering, classified as half-open cans on the website! What are they?

Yepp did the same with my dt770's. Took half an hour before I had ordered new pair.

Arya stealth on Schiit stack (magni/modi) sounds really good though! Hard to beat! Although I will say Sennheiser hd600 on Valhalla 2 sounds almost as good. Hard to tell. Hoping purchase of Beyer dt880 600 ohm for the Valhallas will be be my last purchase for those amps. Of course this never ends! Chasing the dragon!
