Beyerdynamic - DT 770 M (80 Ohm)

Some of their models have a really sharp top end. The dt770 are nice tough.

In ear monitors. I use Truthear Hexa but there is plenty more out there at a good price. If not then I use Beyerdynamic dt770s. IEMs feel much better in terms of spacing and immersion imo.

I use Apple Earpods when I’m lazy and away from my desk with my PO-33, KOII and OP-1 Field. Beyerdynamic 770 when I’m at my desk and Nothing Headphone (1) when I’m in the mood for great design.

Agreed dt770 and hd280s are both really nice for metal. Nice clean crisp mid range.

That depends on what your preferences are. My DT770 is my everyday headphone due to its great comfort and tank-like durability, but I find the FT1 thumps a bit more and has a tuning more suited to general music listening. I don't know if I'd consider it an upgrade though. The DT770 takes EQ very well so you can shape them however you'd like.

honestly, its still extremely bad. somehow all reddit people know to name only the worst headphones on the planet. momentum 4 ... ts... all the marketing stuff pushed onto people. while the real studio geeks only talk HD599/Dt770/Hd600. basically the xm6 only wins from childs headphones. factually the sennheiser HD599 (can be had new for 100 dollars some places), is far overboard better than the xm6. and the HD600 is worlds ahead. and believe it or not. when you upgrade frequently, you eventually pass over the price of some of the bestheadphones around. such as the focal bathys (if you truly have to be wireless), but you wont ever overcome a HD600, or a focal elear. and if you are really rich, the yamaha yh5000se is the best. the xm6 is highly overrated and not even better than the sennheiser HD280. if a headphone hsa a generation number, your quaranteed to be fucked by the company. those are the worst options to choose from. Get a focal bathys now, and youll earn it back, skipping generations, or if you really love your music: i dont even recognise my music for music if it aint on a HD600 or better. on the xm6, music is just noise to me.

BearDynamic dt770s or the dt990s, they worked the best for me. But the thing is 250 ohms sounded very good to me but the 80ohms ones had some hiss.

it won't have Bluetooth but beyerdynamic dt770 is one of the headphones I've used forever, they're basically indestructible too. The top end on most beyerdynamics is kinda strange and some audiophiles don't like them but it's something you'll only be bothered by if you have a lot of experience

my dt770's are amazing. i cannot handle the noise bleed from open back, if i have an ac running or my fan. The tiniest noises really irk me so i went closed back and never looked back.

Beyerdynamic DT770 or DT990. If you want an actual headset with mic, Audeze Maxwell

For the price, you can't really beat them. They're solid quality headphones from a great company with higher priced models if wanted
