Beyerdynamic - DT 770 PRO Limited Edition 250 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.

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

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.

DT 770 Pro X Limited Edition. Great for games and music. Exciting V shaped tuning for great bass and treble response. Closed back, meaning leaks no sound through any open holes or mesh. And for a closed back, they have great soundstage, which is usually typical of open back. Make sure it’s the “Pro X” version as this headphone has many older “Pro” versions that need an amp for more power. The new one does not need much power to sound great so no amp needed.

I’m very partial to the beyerdynamic dt770 pro. But best? Nah, ask one of these rich fellas 😂 But seriously, you don’t really need to spend much more than a couple benjis on mixing headphones imo. If you want to splurge, look at expensive home monitors instead, monitor placement, bass traps etc. Your money will carry you much further that way

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.

beyerdynamic dt 770 pro - my best money spent

Having DT770 pro 250 Omh since 2020, replaced only cushions once.

Depends how loud your keyboard is tbh. Closed backs for gaming are a lot better on PC. I had 1770 Pros for gaming/mixing before but there was a huge discount on 1990 Pros and the 1770 Pros had way too much bass for mastering I so went for those and gave the 1770 pros to my wife. I had to buy new keyboard because I had MX blues and gaming was horrible on open backs and loud switches. I still kinda prefer the 1770 for gaming tbh as they isolate better. For mixing and mastering the 1990 pros are perfect and for gaming as well after getting silent switches. But for budget I would go with DT 770 Pro 250Ohm and pair them with ifi zen dac v2. I made testing with 1770 Pros and 770 Pros on ifi zen dac V2 and the difference wasnt that huge I was expecting (the 770 were decade old lol). https://youtu.be/5nQ4Za2Qd6U?si=xCDnnywE-Gdw9lgS When it comes to gaming they are really good. I used to play a lot of competitive fps before (OW1, Cod, CS) and all games I played I reached top 1% so no complaining.

If you really want riddiclous bass out of headphones ifi zen dac is pretty much what you need. The DAC itself will cost 2500 kr. I used to run it with 250ohm DT 770 Pros and it had a lot of bass. This setup will cost you 5000 kr tho. Its going to be little expensive but its future proof. Will last you years and if you get bored to the headphones you can upgrade them later on. If budget is really tight you can go for 250Ohm DT770 pros and Fiio K11 which will cost around 3000 kr from black market deals.
