Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro

Beyerdynamic DT 770 pro (30 Ohm, 80 Ohm, 250Ohm) are closed over-ear and closed-ear headphones and have decent noise isolation. These headphones are equalized to meet diffuse field EQ requirements. Doesn’t matter if you are present in the control room or on the recording floor these headphones will deliver accurate sound. Designed solely for studio monitoring these headphones are extremely accurate and the quality of these headphones has remained the same since they launched their first headphone. The frequency response range and bass of all the versions (30Ohm, 80Ohm, 250hm) is of top-notch. You won’t find any active noise cancellation method but when you’ll use these headphones you won’t find any active noise and it will help you to focus on what you are doing. These headphones are designed for studio work and stage use thus, DT 770 Pro headphones are extremely comfortable and you can use these headphones for a long period of time. Plus, they’ve got these soft velour ear pads and these pads will make your ear comfortable even if you’ll use them for 10 hours. Another great thing about the earpads of these headphones is they can be replaced. All in all, they are great to use while recording.

Pricing: 

DT 770 pro was originally retailed for 280$ but now you can find it for 160$ and what else can you expect at this price range this is the best headphone.

Advantages:

DT 770 pro has the best sound separation compared to other headphones that cost thousands of dollars. This means that you’ll be able to clearly hear every instrument in your mix and their position in the mix.

Easier to find problems in your mix with these headphones.

Soft head pad.

Robust spring steel headband.

Bass-reflex systems are innovative.  

Great for any studio setup.

Closed-back headphone (helps to keep all the noise within the headphone). For example, if you are in a public place and if you don’t want the audio to leak out and disturb the other passenger’s then you’ll want to use closed-back headphones.

What do you mean by OHM’s or ohms? 

Ohms is the unit of measure for impedance, they are the properties of headphones and earphones and they determine the flow of electrical current through it. It describes the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance.

 

DT 770 pro impedance 

Why does impedance matter? 

Higher impedance headphones require more power or higher voltage to get good sound whereas, lower impedance headphones need less power or voltage power making them more suitable to use for mobile devices, laptops or tablets, or any other portable devices.

Generally, if you are getting headphones for mobile devices, laptops, desktops, you should buy headphones that have an impedance of 32 Ohms but the higher the impedance the better will be the sound. So if you are working in a studio and if you have a high-end stereo system or even a stage you should always go for higher impedance headphones i.e. 250 Ohm.

Low impedance headphones will give you better sound quality, thick bass when you plug them inside your mobile device, laptop, or any other portable device.

Whereas higher impedance headphones will sound awful, you can turn your mobile phone or laptop the whole way up but you’ll barely get any volume, even if 250 Ohm’s headphones are fantastic. You’ll need a headphone amp if you are planning to use DT 770 pro 250 Ohm with your laptop or mobile device, or an audio interface where 250 Ohm headphones are not supported, since the impedance will be high the volume might be too low for you and the headphone amp will help you get the perfect sound by allowing you to adjust the volume.

 

Which version is great for the audio interface? 

Since the audio interface has a dedicated headphone amp that has higher power and higher voltage output you should go for a much higher impedance headphone since the audio interface will have enough power to drive these headphones. DT pro 770 250 Ohm will sound very loud and full if you are using it in the audio interface. However, if you plug lower impedance headphones into an audio interface it will still sound good but you’ll have to lower the volume of your audio interface to 1, or else the sound will just blast your ears.  

 

Advantages of using Higher impedance headphones. 

Protects your ear from being damaged.

DT 770 pro(30 Ohm, 80 Ohm, 250 Ohm) Which version is best for you? 

So if you are in a recording studio then 80 Ohm headphones will give you a lot more volume than the 250 Ohm headphones. So if you are a drummer or a guitarist then 80-ohm headphone will be the best for you since you’ll be able to hear the backing track, click the track perfectly.

But if you are into mixing and at the live show then DT 770 pro 250 Ohm is the best headphone.

For listening purpose and using it on a portable device you can buy 32-ohm. 

 

Can we make the sound of DT 770 pro even better while listening from the portable device? 

Yes, you can while using DT 770 pro with a portable device you can use DAC(Digital to Analog converter), which is a small amplifier that makes the DT 770 pro get more dynamic range, as a result, the sound ends up being far better.

 

What will you get when you’ll buy the DT 770 headphone?

You’ll get a connection adapter that is gold-plated and is 3.5 millimeters long which is used for connecting to an audio interface, plus you’ll be getting a quarter-inch adapter that comes with the box.

You’ll also get a headphone holder or bag where you can put your headphone.

32 Ohm is better for plugging directly into mobile devices or any portable device. 

250 Ohm is best for studio use since studios will have great amplification. 

Can DT 770 pro be connected to the computer directly? 

Yes, the cable of this headphone has a standard 3.5millimeter plug and 6millimeter converter so you will be able to directly plug it into the headphone jack of your computer.

Are the paddings of the headphone Velour or leather? 

All versions of DT 770 pro have velour padding.

Which version of DT 770 is best for mobile phones or tablets? 

32 Ohm or 80 Ohm version of this headphone is best for portable devices like phones or tablets. The 250 Ohm version requires lots of power to drive it which is not possible using the portable device as a result you’ll get extremely low volume output.

Can the cord be detached? 

No, the cable on the DT 770 pro is not detachable.

 

Do you need a headphone amplifier to make the sound of your headphone better?

 Most audio interfaces these days are well equipped to be able to drive headphones with an impedance rating of 80 ohms and above. So if you are producing music from your home then DT 770 80 Ohm will be the best for you. 80 ohms will be able to drive with no issues.
