Dt770 don't get hot even though they are closed back
That maybe be true for you but not always for others. The temperature of your surroundings play a big part in it to. I live in a country where the weather is very warm so closed backed headphone will be much hotter than a open backed one. It also depends on how much the person sweats and some people will sweat more than others.
To the OP, if you are prone to sweating and live in a relatively warm area don't get DT770. They use velour pads which soak up sweat so not exactly a good idea unless you plan to use an aircon. I'd much rather have a hotter leather earpad than a soaking wet velour one but that may just be me. I'd say open backed are your best bet. LCD 2 is good if you can deal with the weight but other than that I'd say X2 is probably your only other choice. @ProtegeManiac makes a very good point though, you should just get an aircon unit that isn't too loud. In the end, no matter open backed or closed, if you are prone to sweating and live in a warm place, you will end up sweating anyways. Only solution to that is to cool the environment around you.
