beyerdynamic DT-770 Pro 250 Ohm Reviews

Built like a tank and sound is perfect.

I always recommend these headphones as a first choice. I'm surprised how great spectral balance they have even though they are closed-back. I've used ones for 10+ years daily and they are in great shape (except the pads). The coiled cable is a must because straight ones are too stiff and will brake the wire at the entry of the headphone. The sound balance is pretty similar to Sennheiser HD-600.

Nice headphones for the beginner

Top quality for this price.

OK

Used them sparingly and sold soon thereafter. Pricey in my opinion

The best a man can get

No matter if you're professional musician or a fat block like me, you'll never experience a better quality sound from a pair of STUDIO headphones.

You think you love music? Just wait until you have these filthy soft headphones on your head.

Zhe Germans are known for their attention to details and their engineering.

Oh baby, I can just feeeel those velour ear pads singing me a lullaby and putting me to sleep.

You can even use them if you want total quiet.

Great headphones!

I love the sound. I use it for recording and mixing/mastering. I think it's best use is recording, but mixing and mastering can also be done.

Bought this headphones after reading the reviews and it has not disappointed at all. It's comfortable to wear for long stretches, there's plenty of cable length, although the wound-up cable sometimes gets in the way of things. Overall the sound is great. I tend to agree with other reviews that the highs are very present but it doesn't bother me. I like the spatiality, as I'm able to judge quite well on where a sound sits in the mix. I've remixed some older tracks with these headphones and compared them to previous versions. They are, in my opinion, definitely more balanced because of these. For the price they're going you shouldn't be hesitating if you're a beginner or more advanced. It's great value.

Preis-Leistung 1a

Ich beutze die kopfhörer nun schon lange zum mixen und zum monitoring während Aufnahmen. Die Abschirmung ist echt unglaublich, von außen kommt kaum sound durch während man mit ihnen nichts von außen hört. Der Sound ist schön flach, aber auch musik hören macht spaß.

Fantastic

Just a great studio headphone. Good deal.

One of the greatest headphones ever

I've used these headphones for 3 years now, for producing, mixing & mastering and live streaming performance, and it's a really great headphone. The sub frequency accuracy is the best on this headphone, no other comes close. I have an yamaha HS8 with sub as main monitors, and this DT 770-250ohm, gives me the full subwoofer sound that I need to hear. I also have the Beyerdynamic DT-990 open model, but the sub woofer is not as full bloom. The DT-770 closed model better represents the bassreflex port on a subwoofer to make better mix decisions. It's very useful to hear clearly, the difference between an sub suitable for cinema, and sub tweaking for different music styles. And my sub tweaking mix/masters with this DT-770 have always translated well to real subwoofers, car woofers & club subs. The open model DT-990 has an wider soundstage (it sounds like there's an added stereo width, compared to the DT-770, if I compare it A-B. I recommend the closed one for accurate mixing/mastering of the low end, keeping in mind that stereo width isn't as wide due to the closed design, but stereowidth can always be added in the mix/master stage & can be checked on the multi correlation meters. But the sub sound advantage of the DT-770, cannot be attained on the DT-990 no matter what you put on the mix/master busses. For me it's DT-770 over the DT-990 on any day.

Comfort is also great, many hours, minimum fatigue. Might have to get used to the weight, clamp pressure, and curly cable weight & handling. But in a weeks time it will be second nature. My longest session wearing it was 22 hours. I have used it for nearly 3 years now, almost every day 7 days a week, 3 to 12hrs a day.

The foam pads/cushions are still good, good isolation even after all this time. Isolation for vocal booth/livestreaming/podcast is also great on these. I think about 80% of youtube/twitch streamers use the DT-770. It's very popular.

So yeah the Pro's: Mix/master translates well, great subwoofer clarity to make confident mix/master decisions on for the low end. Music mixed on these translates well to other systems. Also great for critical listening, referencing music & sound design. Accuracy & translation is great on these, but note the stereowidth, bit narrow sound width due to the closed design.

There's only one Con, the curly cable, if you sit stationary in your mix position you're fine. But if you move a lot to access different gear, any head movement more than 30cm, will reposition the cable & it's weight strain. Do that all day, & you'll get tired & annoyed by that cable. So sit still haha and try to have the cable rest on something like your desktop/table when mixing/mastering. Letting the cable hang full weight on the headphone will cause fatigue during long sessions, but is inevitable in the vocal booth where one usually stands upright.

In conclusion, I love this headphone for everything. Mixing/mastering [closed design isolates well, won't hear street noises & children playing, I can always focus on my mix/master]; monitoring instruments, sound design, critical listening, watching movies, and playing games. Also great for enjoying ASMR, or voice/video-calls, just make sure you have an good headphone preamp to drive the 250ohm to get enough gain/volume.

I use the RME Babyface Pro Fs, more than enough gain. But on my samsung phone max volume is about 70%-80% of what I would prefer as ideal. It's okay, not bad, but I'd recommend an headphone preamp if you want to drive the 250ohm version just from phone.

I'm married to these headphones, always reliable & true sound, never deceives me haha Cheers

Awesome

I taught it’s a consumer product. But it’s actually a high quality studio headphone. Best for this price.

Best headphones of all time!!

Been using this almost a year, and it just works perfectly without a problem and the sound is so fantastic. Especially the spaghetti cable it is a small feature which is great

Just perfect

Very pleasant sound quality, good bass, nothing to compare to the AKG 271 I have, quality construction, very comfortable

Superb Cans for Film and Video Editors

As a seasoned Film and Television Editor, long hours on the editing suite are a given. The importance of audio on projects is never understated and there has to be trust in the choice of headphones I use. I have tried a number of different makes, models and types, but by far these cans are the number one choice. The ones i have are the 2nd pair, not because the previous pair were damaged but were actually lost on a remote job and I had no hesitation in buying a 2nd pair. If you're looking for a quality performance set of headphones then i cannot recommend more, especially if you edit a lot of vocals, narration and VO work.

Great headphones

Really comfortable headphones and detailed sound, especially in the mids and highs that I didn't hear before. They are the best I've had so far.

DT-770 Pro Great quality for the price

Using beyerdynamic DT-770 Pro 250 for mixing and recording. Sound quality is great and very happy with the what you get in this product. Enjoy the range and detail for general use as well. I would buy these again. We will see how long they last. So far seems good build quality.

You can hear everything!

I'm using them just with my Scarlett 8i6 3rd gen for producing dance, slap house, tech house, melodic house and techno tracks mostly as a ghost producer. The sound of these is natural with a lot of details. About the volume combined only with my soundcard, it is loud enough to work and listen music loud (I don't think that most people need more volume).

For soundcards that don't have external power (like Scarlett Solo, 2i2, 2i4, and 4i4), you will not have enough volume and you will need a headphone amp. Check first your soundcard manual, otherwise go for 80ohm.

The only negative is the cable.

Great product

Great quality headphones that feel like wearing "clouds" on your ears. Got it for my late night bass practice.

Bon rapport qualité prix

Le casque est confortable, le son est homogène et il convient pour mixer. Il est facilement transportable

Comfy, good build, highs aren't bad at all

Amazing pair for the price. The sound on these is great, really is. The high frequencies are a bit too present for me - I read other reviews saying the same, but int's bot bad at all, you never get painfully loud high ends or anything. I rarely even notice it, and to be honest the sound is still better than it should be for the price.

I find the headphones comfortable even after hours. I also like the coiled cable, it prevents it from getting tangled up which always happens on other pairs, and you can move further if you want, the coil gets stretched.

Initially I was worried about the plastic cups, but the arc over the head is metal and the whole thing is put together well. I had a cheaper pair before which held the cups in a weird way and that got loose after 2-3 years, but this definitely seems stronger.

I don't think you can get a better pair without going up another 50€+.

Good.

Nothing special,but good.
