Beyerdynamic - DT 770 PRO (32 Ohm)

Hey, i recently bought DT770 Pro black edition and was wondering how i should drive them considering i'm mostly gonna use them for gaming/listening to music on my PC. I don't really have a huge budget for it sth like 100 bucks would be nice, anyway if you have any reco would be nice. (btw they are 250Ohm)

Ultimately you have to look at the pictures. Look at these, DT770, big giant cups. [https://north-america.beyerdynamic.com/p/dt-770-pro](https://north-america.beyerdynamic.com/p/dt-770-pro)

They are comfortable, yeah. I got some the other year and really like them.

Yup. Over ear or in ear is practically mandatory with glasses. The DT770 headphones are a pretty good choice.

Then get either a professional(non-gaming) headset, or get professional headphones and microphone(non-gaming) For example right now I have an Audient id4 mk2 interface, BeyerDynamic DT770 headphones, and a Sennheiser MKE600 mic on my desk. Free yourself of the gaming market and there's so many good choices that will last for many years. If you want a headset, get a professional headset that would be used on the job, not a gaming headset.

+1 for beyerdynamics. Plus the earpads on the 770 are a dream…

If he’s ok with a wired one, look into the beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro, 32 Ohm version. Built well, repairable. No active noise cancelling but they insulate well enough that they might work for him. The pads are also THE MOST COMFORTABLE EVER. But, cable. Whatever you do, stay away from anything by Audio Technica. They’re notorious for breaking right on the yoke between earpads and headband. For earplugs, look into Mack’s Thermafit soft foam earplugs with NRR 29. I myself have small ears and they work great for me. I’m very sensitive to noise, and when needed I pair those earplugs with headphones

I’m a sound engineer by profession, so I can comment on wired headphones, which are preferred in my industry. (this is just my subjective experience) Open-back headphones are arguably the best-sounding type—bar none—but their main drawback is that they don’t perform well in noisy environments. You’ll end up turning up the volume to compensate for ambient noise, which can damage your hearing. When it comes to closed-back headphones, my top choice would be the Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro, 32-ohm version (note: they come in 32, 80, and 250-ohm variants). The 250-ohm version might be on special, but it requires a dedicated headphone amplifier to drive properly. These headphones are well-regarded in the industry and are known for their comfort and durability. I couldn’t afford those, unfortunately, so I opted for the Sony MDR-7506. They might look a bit silly, but they sound great—if perhaps a bit bright (think of it like slightly turning up the treble knob on your EQ, if you’re unsure what “bright” means). These headphones have been used by countless sound engineers around the world and are considered something of a benchmark in the industry. There are also many alternatives or clones, such as the Audio-Technica ATH-M50, which are just as good—and some even come in Bluetooth versions. Finally, I had to buy cheap closed-backs for our field recording kits and for musicians to use while tracking, and I ended up getting AKG K72s, which I think are excellent value for money. Honourable mentions: Sennheiser HD25-II – They sound amazing and reject external noise well, but they pinch my ears to my head, which is uncomfortable. Sennheiser HD280 Pro – Another industry workhorse. No comment, except… Joe Rogan. Shure SRH840A – Never tested them, so can’t comment. AKG K371 – Also never tested, but they’re generally well regarded. *edits: mostly formatting

There's no such thing as gaming specific audio, just get good headphones. If you want immersive I'm assuming you mean bassy and closed back with leather pads. My best recommendation would probably be the beyerdynamic dt 770s (32 ohm version unless you have or want to get an amp) and replace the pads with the dekoni leather/fenestrated leather.

The Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro (32 or 80ohm variant) is always and easy recommendation. Inexpensive, essy to both sell and buy second hand. Great quality and good sound. But beware if you’re sensitive to treble. They’re pretty aggressive. Edit: Downvoted for recommending a headphone? What?

I went from gaming headset to a DT770 about 10 years ago, went through all sorts of different headphones, amp stacks and went down the rabbit hole for a bit. A couple years ago I sold my DT1770 and Schiit stack in favor of the Audeze Maxwell. great headset but it has some issues. Not at all as good as the hype wants you to believe.(Music is amazing, gaming is OK, Durability of those drivers is shit, software is even shittier) Started using that at work for music listening and calls instead and got a basic Steel Series Arctis Nova 7 at home. Also decent, especially for the price. Recently I got an audio interface to fuck around with my guitars and amp plugins. And I tried my old DT770s again through that. The sound is so much clearer so I’m back to using studio headphones again. Thinking I’m gonna get the DT700 and throw those old DT770’s back into my drawer, always nice with a backup I guess.

Decided to do the same thing with headphones and micro. Stopped between dt770 pro and ath m50x. Went to the store to listen to both of them before deciding to buy anything at all aaand i liked m50x more - they have more "consumer-ish" sound imo: better bass, better highs, almost the same mid as 770 and there was limited color version that i really liked. While on the other side i felt like 770 are more suited for creating music, not listening to it - they show all the flaws in quality any track has.. https://preview.redd.it/ej8jb4j4snzf1.jpeg?width=4096&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=518f65faf3c2f4903536eff1219da084c6b3a81e

I got sick of breaking the m50s so grabbed a pair DT770 pros. I love them and use them 90% of the time. I’m a year into them and no qualms. Rest of the time is monitors.

Ill be the 20th person to say beyerdynamics dt770 pro

Personal choice. That said Headphones made for a specific genre of music sound like a bad gimmick to me. I go for studio cans myself. I use beyerdynamic dt770 pros at home and sennheisher hd25s when I am walking around.
