    DT 770The Beyerdynamic DT 770s are a good set of headphones. They really aren’t a lot different from the other headphones in the series, offering better than average audio quality and Beyerdynamic’s MANUFAKTUR customization service. While MANUFAKTUR can be very expensive, it’s an interesting service we wish more headphone manufacturers would embrace. Read more

    While there is a trace of the midrange coloration that tends to plague closed 'phones as a species, it is kept to a very low level and we thoroughly enjoyed listening to a range of music. As hinted above, bass is admirably strong but not overemphasised, and there is plenty of detail on offer across the band. This is a particularly successful example of its type and we recommend it highly. Read more

    I am a little surprised at the uncritical expert reviews. I have a pair of light-weight headphones by Panasonic which have crystal-clear sound and which leave these, eight times more expensive, in the shade. The sound is OK but not wonderful. Also the volume control is so "safe" that I can play my loudest pop track on full volume with no danger to my ears.

    As with many products, I read mixed reviews all over the Net. I wanted these phones for playing my electronic drums (to filter out the stick noise), to monitor a mix and I admit, for some music listening as well. While they do offer isolation from outside noise, I found the sound quality to be extemely lacking, especially for the high price of the phones. The Beyerdynamic DT770M is a very comfortable headphone, among the most comfortable that I have ever worn. Read more

    Drummer's...you HAVE to buy these headphones! If you want to save your hearing use these headphones. They allow you to LOWER the level in the headphones due to the 35dB ambient noise reduction. Whatever you are monitoring you can listen at a VERY comfortable level and still hear your kit! Just tell your sound guy to bleed the kit into your mix and life is beautiful. Read more

    First of all I am a 'so-called' musician... so that lends me to a certain realm of tactful taste. That being said I'll move on...I am listening to these headphones as I scribe this article. They are about 7 years old and have logged a many thousand hours of listening; on musical material from Jazz, R&B, Funk, Classical and a host of stage performances, with no excesses of sonic input to threaten the electronics.
