I had Denon D2000s, but the cable got damaged in a move and the ear-cup screw fell out.   So, I'd like new headphones under $250.  They'd be connected to a Head Direct EF1 amp, and I'd be getting a DAC later.  I enjoyed the sound signature of the D2000, but the impedance was a bit low with...

Hi everyone, I'm new here I hope you can help me, I'm getting mad^^:   Ok, I need to buy a headset to play with xbox360.   I've never used a headset so I'm really without knowledge about the all thing...   I can tell you for what I need it:   I play 3 hours everyday with xbox360...

Based on what I've heard so far, I'm looking into purchasing a pair of beyer DT880. Could someone tell me how they sound please? I'm under the impression that they will have a relatively neutral sound, with a smaller sound stage and good reproduction of the recordings. My concern however, is an...

Hello,   this is my first post here. before posting, I have read many, many posts to get brought up to speed a bit. I have a lengthy history in 2 channel audio with speakers. I have never had a truly good pair headphones in my opinion. I currently own: Monoprice Premium Hi-Fi DJ Style...

Hi all, I've recently purchased the DT880/600 from Amazon but i was upset to see that it had the same problem the DT770/32 i purchased not long ago from B&H. This is the Left side of the headphone and plastic piece that is holding the earcups. As you can see, there is clearly a gap. This is...

Hi all, I have to choose between the 32 ohm version and the 250 ohm version of the Beyer DT880 a friend is offering to sell to me. I use mainly my ipod and occationally my computer (itunes, games) but plan to upgrade to an amp next year. Has anyone compared the 2 versions? Would the 32ohm...

Hey guys,   This is kind of a cross-forum post but I've put it in the full size forums as thats where (I think) the problem lays...   So I've bought some new gear these past few months and one thing I notice is that my q-Jays expose more detail than my DT-880 Pro's at a similar volume...

I wrote way too much detail on my experience with all headphones, dacs, and amps. If you're turned off by reading all that which I have to assume most people are (I know I would be), then skip ahead to the next lines.   Over the last number of months I've been assembling myself a rig...

  Hi   I am looking to purchase either one of these :   Link to Beyerdynamic DT880 PRO - £199.99       Beyerdynamic DT880 PRO main features include: Semi - Open Innovative bass refelx system Rugged headband cosntruction Single-sided coiled cable Soft headband pad Gold...

hey yall,   im getting a pair of beyerdynamic dt880 headphones pretty soon (should be in the mail tomorrow) and have been looking at amps to get for longer than i was looking for the headphones. but i just can NOT decide, there are too many options, but i think ive narrowed it down to only...

Hi!   I'm new to head-fi forums and I'd need some help figuring out what should I get.   I've listened music so far with my HT system and now I would need also good headphones, so I can listen music without disturbing anyone. Budjet is open, but something like 1000€ (~1200$) would be ok...

I've been parsing a ton of reviews and boards for information on the best way to go with these headphones / amps and I'm still not sure what the best option is.   I'm looking to go for either the DT880's, the HD600 or HD650s. I was really looking into the AKG k701s, but numerous reviews...

Hi everybody. There is a question about this gear. Will Duet's headphone amp be enough for driving DT 880 Pro at 100%? If not - could anyone advice good amp for dt 880 pro

Yeah, I know, another "please recommend" thread.    I read the FAQs on Beyers site, and along  with some Googling, and I think I want the DT-880 250 ohm model.   600 ohm might be more neutral, but I don't want to have to need an amp.   Don't think I want closed because open is just...

Hello all,   I listen to Indian classical music and songs with a lot of vocals. I also listen to Soft Rock, Power Ballads and some 80's pop. Some examples would be Dire Straits ( Sultans of Swing ) Aha ( hunting high and low ) Madonna ( Live to tell, La Isla Bonita ) Bon Jovi ( Wanted...

Hey all.  I'm currently throwing together a budget audio system and am in need of advice for a basic amp.  Since this will be used exclusively in the home, I tend to prefer the non-battery powered varients. For headphones, I'm currently deciding between a pair of CharterOak SP-1's and a...

I currently have a Little Dot I+ with the WE408A tubes coming and wanted to get some closed headphone besides my K701s. Had my eyes on the Beyerdynamic DT770/80 and DT770/250 Ohms for a while, though I'm not really sure how well they pair with the Little Dot I+ and if it provides enough juice...

Alright,   New to the forum so Hello everyone   Im producing House and after a set of cans. Do not necassarily need the music loud but i do need it clear so am unsure whether i require an amp? If i can get away without an amp that would be great. Im using the EMU 0404 and the cans i have...

Hi,      I'm going to buy Beyer Dynamics DT880 PRO (250 ohm) for monitoring. I have a DIGI002 with the headphone outputs: +15 dBu, 150 ohm load. So my question is if this if actually enough power to drive them. It heard that they require alot of power to get a good sound out of them.  ...

What would it be? I know that both don't sound the same, but some of them have have similarities in the sound signature.   My Infinity P362 floor standing speakers seems to have my preferred sound signature. Overall they're pretty boring, but they don't seem to do too much of any on thing...

  HI Everybody,     Early this year I had an accident which really fried both my ears.  Really, really unfortunate.  Talk about bad luck for an audiophile.   The right recovered, but the left is still so sensitive that listening with my Mark Lawton modified MD2000 causes it to ring...

Is there anyone with experience with a vintage dt880 (late 80s)? I just bought one and am waiting for it to be sent to me. I have a dt990 from the same period which is one of the best headphones I've ever heard and I am curious whether the dt880 from the same period is as good.

So, I've never owned anything fancy audio-wise, and I basically have no clue about any of this. But I do listen to a lot of music, so I've tentatively decided that it's worth shelling out for a relatively nice set of headphones. I'll listen to nearly any genre of music, some of the time, but my...

hi everyone.   I'm in need of some help. Every night it is an all out war in my bedroom because of my gaming leaking through my AD700's. I've been looking at the DT770 pro 80's for some good isolation/awesome immersion. I love my 700's, but they do leak alot and they're used for footsteps...

Well, since every other high/highish mid-fi headphone has it's own thread of sorts, I don't know why this rather underappriciated headphone is not talked about more. Better than my DT880 '03's and really, the most balanced and best sounding SQ wise of all the DT880's. Have I found an end to my...
