DT 770 PRO - 250 Ohm

I do have an audiophile ears, but I do not own any audiophile equipment. Recently I bought a Yeti Plus microphone that has an audio jack for monitoring audio. So, I plugged in my Bose QC35 headphones, using the 3.5 mm audio cable, and it sounded OK. But, it didn't sound great. I decided to subscribe to Apple Music to see what the music sounds like via this setup. It was nothing to write home about. I then plugged the same QC35 headphones to my 2021 Apple M1 Pro MacBook Pro (14"), and it sounded exactly like it did out of the Yeti X microphone's headphone jack. I decided to research and see why the quality was so low. I don't normally listen to music, but I couldn't imagine that the Apple Music streamed (even at the highest selectable quality) would be so unremarkable. So, I looked up the impedance of the audio jack of the Yeti X microphone, and I realized that it's a high-impedance audio output. Then, I looked up the 2021 M1 Pro MacBook Pro specs, and what do you know? It also has a high-impedance output audio jack (unlike the 2020 M1 MacBook and MacBook Pro). So, then I googled what impedance should the headphones have for high-impedance audio outputs and learned that the impedance of the headphones should be at least 8-10 times of the impedance of the audio output in Ohms. Hence, I started the search for the high-impedance headphones. I've read hundreds of reviews, and I finally found the DT 770 PRO 250 Ohm headphones. They were well reviewed, they were relatively inexpensive, they they had a version with 250 Ohm of impedance (which is about 8 times as high as the audio output of the Yeti X audio jack). So, I decided to try these headphones. I ordered them and received them the next day via Amazon Prime shipping. As soon as I plugged them in and started the stream from Apple Music, my jaw dropped. This is what I was looking for, and here it is. Unbelievable I could get a jack pot on the first attempt for under $200 and especially becasue they are made in Germany. How is this even possible? Now, are they comfortable to wear? To me, they are a little too tight. Are they worse than the Bose QC35 when it comes to comfort? Maybe Bose QC35 are a little more comfortable. But, when it comes to the sound, OMG. There is no comparison. Unless you want to pay many times more for premium high-impedence headphones just to get a better fit, then go ahead and get the ones for $1500, $2500, etc. Otherwise, these are amazing when it comes to the audio quality. Can anyone tell that these are better than the QC35? Yes, anyone can tell unless you use these 250 Ohm ones with a low-impedance audio output like in smartphones, older MacBooks, etc. Now, my son has a 2020 M1 MacBook Air, which is an excellent laptop, but it has a low-impedance audio jack output. So, for my son, I've ordered an 80-ohm version to compare to my 250-ohm version. I will let him decide which one to go with. I'd suggest getting both the 80-Ohm and the 250-Ohm version and compare them side by side - as long as you are getting these headphones for a decent piece of audio equipment. If you are getting them for an iPhone (not sure why you would), then maybe you should go with the lowest-impedence version. Edit: I've now compared the 250 Ohm version to the 80 Ohm version. In the beginning, I couldn't tell any difference when using them with my Yeti X microphone's high-impedance audio out jack and the 2021 M1 Pro MacBook Pro high-impedance audio jack. However, the more I listened to both, the more I started hearing the difference. I then switched to testing both 250 Ohm and the 80 Ohm headsets exclusively with the 2021 M1 Pro MacBook Pro's high-impedance audio jack because it turned out that the Yet X audio jack shows its shortcomings when music with serious bass is played out of it. In my opinion, the 250 Ohm headset reproduces the sounds more accurately. When listening to Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes (on Apple Music lossless), I could actually hear some imperfection in the bass guitar (like the string was moved under the player's finger accidentally, resulting in a little distortion), while I couldn't hear this through the 80 Ohm headset. When listening to Bohemian Rhapsody Remastered in 2011 on Apple Muisci (lossless), It appears that mids and the highs are a bit dulled down through the 80 Ohm headset, whereas they are crystal clear through the 250 Ohm headset. We are talking here very subtle differences that can only be detected while listening to the same piece over and over again via both headsets (back to back). It appears that the best songs recommended for testing headsets are: 1. Bohemian Rhapsody Remastered (2011) by Queen. ... 2. Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes. ... 3. Feels Like We Only Go Backwards by Tame Impala. ... 4. Heroes (2017 Remaster) by David Bowie. ... 5. No Time for Caution by Hans Zimmer. ... 6. Diamonds From Sierra Leone by Kanye West. ... 7. Now We Are Free by Hans Zimmer Additionally, I was using the 2021 M1 Pro MacBook Pro's audio jack (which auto-senses high-impedance and low-impedance headphones). I'm not sure what it does for the 80 Ohm headphones: does it consider them low-impedance or high-impedance because, in reality, they are medium-impedance headphones. Compared to other laptops, the 2021 M1 Pro MacBook Pro probably has a decent-quality pre-amp and DAC similar to inexpensive (less than $200) standalone DACs with pre-amps. So, perhaps to hear the difference between the 80 Ohm and 250 Ohm versions of this headset, one should use decent audio equipment. My son hasn't yet tested the two headsets with his 2020 M1 MacBook Air, so I'm not sure which one he decides on. I will post another update later.

These headphones truly exceeded my expectations. I’ve used many studio headphones before, but the DT 770 Pro 80 ohm Limited Edition stands out immediately. The sound is incredibly clear, balanced, and detailed — perfect for recording, editing, or just enjoying music with amazing quality. They are also extremely comfortable, even during long sessions. The build feels solid and professional, and the noise isolation is excellent without feeling too tight. I’m very impressed with the overall performance, and I’m glad I made this purchase. Highly recommended!

I have used many different brands of headphones throughout the years as I am a music obsessed "junkie." I seriously cannot exist one day without my music! It is my constant energy source (other than coffee) :) I have always been a mostly dedicated Sony girl (still love them), but decided to give these a chance as I love to continue sampling with sound. I can get brand specific, but I am always open minded and adventurous and love to experiment! When you listen to music as much as I do (17-19 hours a day), as well as play around with recording, you like to have a broad spectrum of tools available to you. After reading many of these reviews and researching the specs for each model I decided the 80 ohms were just the right vibe for me and all my applications. Let me say - I love when risks pay off! The minute I slipped these on I was blown away. (which is why this review is rather LONG) Biggest factors were: 1. Comfort - The velour earpads are incredibly luxurious and snug against the head without being claustrophobic or sweat inducing (both of which I have horrible issues with). I was especially concerned about this because it is something that happens to me with pretty much any ear cup trapping heat against my head. I am a hyperhidrosis sufferer of over 28+ years, and since that is never going away and any little thing can trigger a nasty sweating episode, I certainly don't want my number one and favorite activity to be contributing to that! I have been wearing these for hours at a time (longest session was 3.5 hours so far) and at times forget they are on - they are just that comfortable in their design. The cord is long, but if you run it behind your back it never gets in your way or adds considerable weightiness. The adjustable headband is genius in the snap design and I love how sturdy they feel. Although they look heavy I was amazed at how light weight they actually are. Another issue I tend to have with overears is significant pain on the top of my head from plastic rub or behind my ears rubbing. I have been wearing these almost non-stop for about 3 days now and have not had one complaint. I just have to remember to take them off to let my ears have a break from their amazing SOUND. 2. Sound quality (listening) - the 80s are super well balanced if you are using applications that do not require amplification. They are perfectly designed for your every day musical consumption through a computer or smartphone, but I mostly bought this set to record vocals with my mic. They give me a rich, all around balanced experience where i feel the trebles are clear enough and the bass is not so "thuddy" it seems "muddy." It's actually very punchy, warm, and responsive feeling. Don't get me wrong, I err on the side of more bass as I love hearing that rich tone, but I never want it to be overpowered as some in the Beats brand can be. I do use Beats tour 2.0 as my main earbud, but for an over ear they can be a little overpowered. On that note, some headphones require really precise tuning with an EQ to manipulate their best performance, but these Beyerdynamics are as plug and play as you could hope for. I listen to a very broad range of music too - from punk to classic rock to EDM to Alternative to hard rock, to Prog, to some pop and metal etc.. . I'm just an all around music enthusiast and these headphones make me hear all the same songs in a whole new light. And that's exactly what I was looking for since I want to enjoy the same thing over and over, but never tire of having a new experience with something even though it's familiar. You definitely don't need your device turned up too high to enjoy the depth of the sound you get. The pads are not noise cancelling, but they do a great job of isolating sound close enough to you to fully immerse you in the experience. 2.2 Sound (recording) I haven't got to use these as much yet on the recording side with my Blue USB mic, but from the little I sampled with it they are perfectly designed to meet my expectations. They do a fabulous job of isolating the input in your ear, but still allow you to hear some of what is happening around you without it being a distraction. I noticed that right away and loved that aspect. They cut down the distractions, but don't make you "disappear." 3. Aesthetic appeal/long term investment - They are stylish while still being professional - so many headsets can go for one goal and miss out on the other. I think this set does a great job of adding excitement/uniqueness to the design without sacrificing quality. They don't look "stupid" on your head - like a gimmicky, "I just want to be cool" look. But they definitely aren't boring or cheap looking either. In fact, they are less bothersome on my huge head of hair than some headsets have been. If you have alot of hair to hide them, they can almost look like earmuffs instead of headphones, and while possibly an irrelevant point, I thought it was pretty neat. :) All parts are replaceable too! So that sets them apart to be a good long term investment if you find you enjoy the experience as much as I do. Clsoing points are - there is no compromise for quality or well engineered, smartly run, passionate companies. This was my first experience with Beyerdynamic and it has been one well worth having.

Ich muss es gleich sagen: Die Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO (80 Ohm) sind wahrscheinlich die besten Kopfhörer, die ich jemals besessen habe. Ich nutze sie nur zum Zocken, weil der Klang einfach unschlagbar ist. Sie sind seit Ewigkeiten der Standard in Studios, und das hat seinen Grund. Positive Aspekte * Der Sound ist phänomenal (Gaming-Boost): Der Klang ist unglaublich klar, detailliert und präzise – und das ist beim Zocken Gold wert! Man hört Schritte, Distanzen und Richtungen von Geräuschen im Spiel extrem genau heraus. Der Bass ist knackig, die Mitten sind klar. Die 80-Ohm-Version liefert einen tollen Allround-Sound, der jedes Spiel besser klingen lässt. * Unglaublich bequem (meistens): Die Velours-Ohrpolster sind der Wahnsinn. Sie sind weich wie Wolken und umschließen die Ohren perfekt. Selbst nach stundenlangem Zocken schwitzt man kaum, und der Anpressdruck ist eigentlich gut verteilt. * Top Verarbeitungsqualität: Die Dinger sind gebaut wie ein Panzer. Sie halten locker längere Gaming-Jahre durch. Man muss sich keine Sorgen machen, dass sie gleich auseinanderfallen. * Gute Isolierung: Da die Kopfhörer geschlossen sind, isolieren sie gut von Umgebungsgeräuschen. Man kann sich voll auf das Spiel konzentrieren, ohne von der Familie oder dem Staubsauger abgelenkt zu werden. Neutrale Aspekte * Das Kabel: Das fest verbaute und sehr lange Kabel ist am Gaming-PC oder der Konsole zwar gut, weil man Spielraum hat, aber am Schreibtisch muss man es ordentlich verstauen, damit es nicht stört. Negative Aspekte * Druckstellen bei Brillenträgern: Das ist mein größter Kritikpunkt und leider ein echter Spielverderber für lange Gaming-Sessions. Wenn man eine Brille trägt, drückt der Anpressdruck der Kopfhörer die Bügel so fest gegen den Kopf, dass es nach ein, zwei Stunden richtig weh tut und blöde Druckstellen gibt. Man muss sie dann abnehmen oder die Bügel der Brille anpassen. Das nervt total, weil man beim Zocken oft stundenlang am Stück sitzt. Bewertung und Fazit Klanglich sind die DT 770 PRO absolute Spitzenklasse und liefern einen fantastischen, detaillierten Sound, der einen echten Vorteil beim Zocken bringt. Der Sound ist genial. ABER: Die Tatsache, dass ich sie als Brillenträger nicht für lange Zeit nutzen kann, ist ein riesiger Nachteil. Für Brillenträger ist das leider nur eingeschränkt zu empfehlen. Wer keine Brille trägt: Die besten Gaming-Kopfhörer, die man kriegen kann!

Kristallklart ljud, inget mer fipplande på equalizern.

A great pair of headphones, definitely an upgrade over my previous set of AKG K92s. The highs and lows are much clearer, and I’m hearing parts of songs that I didn’t hear before. Additionally, the material quality is very nice and the ear-cups are much better at reducing outside noise.

J'ai acheté ce beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO 80 Ohms il y a environ 1an et demi pour compléter ma configuration PC, et je ne regrette absolument pas mon choix. Au point de l'avoir même recommandé à des amis ! Avant, j'avais un casque gaming "classique" et la différence est juste frappante. Le son est d'une clarté incroyable et c'est avec ce genre de matériel que l'on s'aperçoit de la qualité son d'un casque professionnel. Aujourd'hui je l'utilise pour toutes mes activités, que ce soit du gaming, écouter de la musique, travailler, etc.. Et il est top dans tous les domaines ! Même niveau confort. Les oreillettes sont super agréables, même après l'avoir utilisé pendant plusieurs heures d'affilée. Ayant une paire de lunettes, avec d'anciens casques j'étais souvent ennuyé dans la mesure où ça devenait vite inconfortable, mais là c'est complètement différent. L'arceau est également rembourré, ce qui fait que l'on ne sent même plus que l'on porte le casque sur la tête assez rapidement. Il a également un très bonne isolation, fini les casques ou on entend tout ce qu'il se passe autour comme si l'on en portait pas. Il étouffe bien les sons extérieurs, ce qui contribue à la qualité de son qu'il émet. Les oreillettes sont facilement détachables, il donc aussi possible de les laver à la main facilement avec un peu d'eau tiède et de la lessive, pour ensuite les mettre à sécher simplement. Bref... C'est un casque vraiment polyvalent ! Le câble Jack est relativement long, ce qui fait que même s'il est destiné avant tout à une application fixe dans un studio de musique/radio ou pour un ordinateur de bureau par exemple, cela n'empêche pas de le transporter dans la mesure ou le casque est même vendu avec un petit sac prévu à cet effet. Si vous êtes à la recherche d'un casque, solide, confortable, professionnel et avec une très bonne qualité de son, le DT 770 PRO est un excellent investissement.

First of all I want to mention that I have the 32 ohm version, in terms of sound it’s possible that you can fine some very tiny differences between the version. Anyway let’s start this review by mentioning the build quality whitch is excellent, the fact that this headphone are manufactured in Germany is a proof of quality and there is almost nothing to say, well build, everything can be remplace if needed except the cable (more on that later) and very confortable, I was wearing these for hours and hours never hade any issue. Overall in build quality and confort it’s a 10 out of 10. Now we will talk about the most important things for all the headphone : the SOUND QUALITY, overall excellent but we will dig a bit more on that. First this headphone are mainly made for a studio usage but I am using them for casual listening and video game. About sound quality we can write thousands and thousands words to describe the sound but I will try to make shorter. As I said before the sound quality is excellent we will start with the bass as expected when looking the frequency response graph the bass is here but as much as beats headphone, so those who want very bassy headphone, save you money. In the other hand the sub base is very deep but not « muddy » they are very well defined, the mid are here and clear as we can expect from a good pair of headphone. The treble, we need two mention that this headphone is made will boosted treble and can be difficult for people with very sensitive ears, I am very sensitive to high note at the beginning I was about to return them because of these high note, you can sometime ear sibilance (the ssss! Sound that you can ear on the s and t’s) the high are just piercing out of the box, but after about a week the sibilance is still there but not as painful as the beginning. These high note give a very clear and crispy sound when it come to voice or other high notes. Overall the sound quality is very good, the soundstage is awsome you can imagine all the instrument playing they own way and making an awesome results this is crazy. Final world for this headphone very good build quality, comfort, sound with only little defects the CABLE , for the price you would expect a detachable cable but sadly the cable not is removable make is the only part that can break and you can’t remplace also to mention that it is a bit short. Anyway you can go wrong buying these headphone !! Highly recommend
