beyerdynamic DT-770 Pro 32 Ohm

First of all, the build quality is excellent! You can clearly see that durability and serviceability were the main priorities when designing these headphones. I'm so happy to see that in today's world of disposable consumer goods someone still makes a product where nearly every component is replaceable. I wish more manufacturers did that...
Once I put the headphones on, I immediately noticed how soft the earpads were and how well they isolated from the outside noise. The headband didn't feel great at first but, after some tweaking around, I found the position where it felt comfortable enough for extended use.
Now, the sound! As soon as I turned on some jazz, I was blown away by how big the sound stage was. It didn't even seem like the sound was coming from the headphones. Instead, I felt like Don Ellis was performing "Whiplash" in my very own kitchen! I most certainly didn't expect that from closed-back headphones. Furthermore, the level of detail is mind-blowing! Whereas on all of the headphones I'd had previously the drivers felt stiff, as if they couldn't move quickly enough to reproduce the amount of detail contained in a high quality audio recording, the Beyerdynamics impressed me by unveiling the intricacies I hadn't heard before. Their superiority is especially apparent when listening to vocals. Those extra details really help convey the emotions in the singer's voice.
If you're looking for a pair of relatively inexpensive high quality headphones, then you should definitely put Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pros at the very top of your shopping list!

Purchased as i needed a spare pair of headphones for home, to complement my Audio Technica ATH-M40x. I absolutely love the ATH-M40x, but these are a step above in all respects although i still think the ATH-M40x represents better value.
The Beyer are very comfortable, very soft headband & the pleather earpads are very soft without being too hot and sweaty. Ear cup is a little bigger than the Audio Technica making these a little bit more comfortable.

There is decent isolation with the pleather pads, but just a little less than the audio technica.

Sound quality is amazing, I hear licks, baselines & tones i never heard before in songs i have heard 100 times. Tee sound stage is quite good also, with a feeling of being in a hall, rather than the sound emanating from inside my head.

Only flaw is the fixed cable which will be a hassle to replace in the future as it requires soldering.

Overall, due to price the AudioTechnica are better value, having similar sound quality & comfort 55 quid less, but the Beyer are a just a little better in the sound & comfort department. its up to you to know if that small amount of extra comfort and sound quality is worth the 55 euros extra.

I have tested the 32, 80 and 250 Ohm versions of these headphones and decided on the 32 Ohm version because I am using them with amplified and non-amplified sources. With an amplifier, the sound quality of the three models is excellent and similar. However, both the 80 and 250 Ohm versions sound quiet and muddy (as expected) with low-impedance sources such as smartphones and tablets. But the 32 Ohm version delivers an excellent sound with low-impedance sources (but it does sound better when connected to an amplifier).

The headphones are very comfortable and can be used for a long time. They completely enclose the ears and provide a good degree of isolation from the outside noise. Since they are closed headphones they do not leak a significant amount of sound even when played at a high volume.

The phones are a bit bulky but they are very sturdy and the build quality is excellent (and they are "made in Germany"). It also seems most parts are replaceable.

The only big complaint I have about this version is that it does not come with the soft "velour" ear pads found on the 80 and 250 Ohm versions, which are much more comfortable than the pads of the 32 Ohm. Moreover, the 32 Ohm is 15-20 EUR more expensive than the other two versions. Yes, the pads are replaceable but they cost an extra 20 EUR. This makes the 32 Ohm version almost 40 EUR more expensive than its brothers. Strongly recommended.

I'm using my headphones daily for casual listening at work; for live mixing on weekly basis, and occasionally for sound editing. For the last 10 years or so I've moved from ATH-M30 to ATH-M50 to DT-770 (32 Ohm).

I've found the DT770 to be extremely comfortable and to produce amazing sound. Comparing with my M50 the sound is not so painfully bright in the upper mids and the bass feels much cleaner. Even though I've read reviews about DT770 having "bigger sound stage" I was still pleasantly surprised by the change from the "right in your ears" approach followed by M50. Clamping force is significantly less than M50, and coupled with velour pads (highly recommended) makes for really nice experience.

Probably the most significant drawback for me is that these headphones are bulky to carry around. Using them for quick PFL in loud live environment feels a bit strange compared to M30 and M50, but that's not their selling point after all. I suspect they would be really nice in a studio environment, however I have no first hand experience in such setting.

Overall I think this is the best pair of headphones I've ever had the chance to use.
