beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro X Limited Edition Review - Celebrating 100 Years, but is it good?

Ғылым және технология

The beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro X Limited Edition uses drivers from the more expensive DT 700 and 900 Pro X models released a couple years ago. To celebrate 100 years of beyerdynamic, the new 770 Pro X flaunts a special callout on the headband, while also adding features people asked for, such as a mini-XLR connection for less than $200. In this review, I cover everything from comfort to sound quality!

    Thanks! I always avoid the term "sponsored" because it suggests some form of money was exchanged or their was a prior agreement. beyerdynamic was great in that they had zero input/asks for the video. They just sent it for review, no questions asked. I only review products from companies that have a neutral approach, but the affiliate stuff is a way to earn a kickback if it's a desirable product. I just didn't want people to think it was "desirable" because I got a kick back. If I add any affiliate links in the future, I'll be sure to prove/maintain objectivity and trustworthiness as well. Thanks for the support!

You only affiliate for products you think are worth it aka you don't want to profit from products you don't appreciate. So yes you putting an affiliate link up means you get a percentage of every kickass product sold... But if it is kick ass, your viewers would have bought it anyway. You saved them a google search 😂 And if you put links for products you like better 👍 the gaming beyer is a nice find. Using a 700 pro x here, very happy. Next target is a hedd 2.0 😂

I put on the Dekoni Elite Hybrid earpads and then used the Oratory1999 EQ preset he made for the 770 80ohm (seems the 770 Pro X and 770s have same frequency response). It sounds amazing! I love the Harman curve! I was blown away by how music sounds! Didn't sound blunted like the 700 Pro X and 900 Pro X, but the instrument separation and imaging is so good. I think it's even better than the TYGR 300R! The 770 Pro X's are so spacious it sounds like an open back almost!

    Another great review. My thoughts on sponsorships … I’m fine with them, especially if the sponsor is not from the manufacturer / provider of the item being reviewed. So, for a headphone review it can be sponsored by an DAC/AMP brand that you used to test the cans with, or by a cable brand etc. Same with DAC review, sponsor with a cable supplier.

    Hey, so I have the DT770 Pro 80ohms that I bought back in 2018, it's still good, but I have a question. Paired with an iFi Zen DAC, for gaming, the volume just isn't loud enough at low gain, and when I hit the high gain button, it distorts when I up the dial. It sounds okay on Spotify because it's louder, but in games it's much quieter, and the distortion is killing the experience that I'm rather sticking with my Kiwi Ears Melody and EM6l IEMs. Will an amp sort the issue or could there be something wrong with the headphones? To be clear, distortion only happens in high gain mode max volume on my Zen DAC and not on low gain.

    I have exactly the same headphones as you. What you have to remember is the DT770 are single ended and the 80ohm has a sensitivity of 96db which makes them quite hard to drive. It sounds like your amplifier doesn't have enough power to drive them to their full potential. Options would be a more power amplifier or have your DT770's converted to balanced 🙏

    Based on your consistent provision of honest reviews over time, it's evident that incorporating affiliate links could be beneficial for the channel. However, I suggest including non-affiliate links alongside them, allowing viewers to make purchases without any associated kickbacks. As demonstrated in this video, presenting both options fosters transparency and ensures unbiased recommendations. I concur with your stance on avoiding sponsored content, as it may compromise the integrity of your opinions by introducing external influences aimed at swaying reviewer perspectives.

    I've been listening to these for a while today, and I think the only thing that I don't think I'm of the same opinion about is that I don't find these to be unresolving. I'm listening on an SMSL SU-8S/SH-8S stack, and I'm finding the detail and resolution to be really good. Better than I remember my DT 990 Pro being, but I don't have it here to compare. Detail-wise, it feels to me like it's competing pretty well with things I have in the $200-$300 range (HD6XX and Fiio FT3). I had another cheap closed back, the R7-DX from Hifiman that I think has maybe a little better soundstage, but the DT770 Pro X has better extension on the bass, and it's nice and clean. Punch Brothers version of "Another New World" at 2:45 when the bass plays a long drawn out note, it's nice and clean on the Beyerdynamic. Drivers seem pretty fast to me. Anyway, thanks for another detailed review. Have you considered including your source(s) on the videos? Might give a little perspective if there are differing opinions on the subjective side of things...

    ALRIGHT PEOPLE! ... I will write it down because everyone only sees the rainbows and puppies with this 770 PRO X, and no one is telling the truth about sound quality. I am a big fun of the old DT 770 Pro (especially the 250 ohm) and had high expectations with this "Limited Edition". I waited like 3-4 months then finally got released in my country. I bought one (on my own money). In short, I didn't like it and will return it... The sound is more closer to the DT 700 X with added spark on the top + a big boom on the low end. For a studio monitoring headphone this sounds way to bass heavy to me. The mid range and the vocals sound weird and resonating/ringing, while they are also distant and artificial. I tried loads of tracks, but after a few minutes I just put it down... I didn't enjoy listening music on it at all. You won't find the engaging and wide sound of the original DT 770 Pro here. Sometimes the sound even felt boxy and unnatural with much emphasis on the bass. To my ears these headphones just too different from the original, and do not understand how Beyerdynamic could name these as "DT 770 PROs". It is not a bad headphone by any means, but it has nothing to do with the originals. This is an EQ-ed DT 700 X with a more comfortable design. By the way, I disliked the DT 700 X too because that was way to flat and uncomfortable. After trying a few recent Beyers I realized that,the new Stellar 45 driver has no soul in it. Boooring as heck and It's hard to imagine anyone enjoying it for a long term. The DT 770 PRO X sound signature in pair with similar headphones in the same price range so it won't stand out from the crowd. I would even say that the sound tuning is close to the Audio Technica M50x, so pretty much V shaped with scooped mids. You can decide if that's a positive or negative thing... I am deeply disappointed... I do like the classy design and build quality, but this won't be my favorite and I will reach back to the old one, 80 or 250 ohms versions. This situation feels like a classic movie remake with a different actors for the today"s "standards". Not always necessary or true to the original. The new Stellar 45 driver is powerful that's the only good thing with it. Personally I don't like the direction that Beyer took with these new line of "studio" headphones. 😢

    The treble on the DT 1990 can be fixed in two ways either a passive filter from diyaudioheaven (solderdude) or EQ at 7700Hz, -7dB, Q 3.0 (or Q 3.5) (with Analytical pads and ymmv you might want less reduction or more). I also find the Balanced pads too boomy for my taste, but some people might like it that way as well. I also own the DT 770 Pro 80Ohm, used it for a long time and next to the DT 1990 it barely gets playtime. But still that headphone is like an old friend and one of the best closed-backs (if not the best - some people probably prefer K361 or K371), and this anniversary edition looks nice as well - shares more similarities in tuning with the DT 770 line than the DT 700 Pro X (even though it uses the same driver as the 700 Pro X).

    Amazing review as always! I tried the regular DT 770 Pro about a year ago and have never initiated an Amazon return so quickly in my life lol. Like you said, I know sound is subjective and everyone hears things differently, but the treble was sooo sharp I honestly couldn't believe people enjoy using headphones with that kind of sound signature.

    Absolute same case with the DT770 pro, it sounded like shit to me and i returned them within 24 hours, but these 770 pro X blown me away, better than closed back sundaras and really close to the maxwells. Really surprised by them.

    Thanks so much for confirming my suspicions on these cans. I've been using a pair of the standard DT770 Pro 80ohms for over 10 years and decided to pre order these after the NAMM reveal. When they got here and I A/B'd them to my old pair, I absolutely HATED the siblance these produced. I got ear fatigue incredibly quickly, to the point where I thought something was wrong with these given the claim by Beyerdynamic that these were supposed to be tuned just like the standard DT770 Pros. My wife also ordered a pair and I checked hers to confirm it wasnt just a QC issue. Unfortunate because they are so physically comfortable, but when the EQ curve is so drastic on the highs that it creates uncomfortable siblance issues with songs I KNOW didnt have that and makes cymbals downright painful to listen to in any modern rock or metal, I opted to send them back within a day and go for the Sennheiser HD490 Pros.

    A bit of an unfair vs game there though… “I didn’t like these 170$ cans so I spend 450$ on a pair of Sennheiser”, I wonder what made you think that it was worth taking that jump once you found the treble too tough on the Beyerdynamics.

    I don’t think affiliate links are a bad thing if you keep your current review style. It’s very in depth, there’s the objective measurements that you can’t argue with, and then there’s your subjective opinion on it. Every headphone will have pros and cons. If your review covers both and I deem the product still worth purchasing, I don’t see why it would be a bad thing for you to get a tiny bit from that. That said, have you seen the Turtle Beach open back headphones they just announced? Very curious to see how those will turn out.

    I have been using Beyer Dynamic for decades and I will never buy any of their low impedance headphones again. I haven't had any of their new low impedance (80ohm) headphones last more then a year. Beyer does have good warrantee but all of the 80ohm headphones stopped working in little as 6 months. The left or right side always blows out or gets distorted, the cushion wears out fairly quick. The ear pads need to be replaced to get the best sound. I love Beyer Dynamic headphones but stay away from their low impedance headphones and only buy their high impedance (250ohm and above) headphones They are amazing and have two pairs that lasted over 12 years.
