I have been using my DT770PRO for a few years and thought that having a second pair for my studio recording is a good idea.
Cons:
When these headphones arrived I noticed upsetting clicks of the head band/earcuffs connections that was really loud and unpleasant to ears.
The remains of solder tin were loosely bumping against the inside of the left ear cup housing - it was very unpleasant.
I was about to send these headphones back, but instead I had decided to open the earcuff and remove the tin elements. Now it works as it was supposed to do.
But for this price beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO X Limited Edition - should not be a worse version of the original model, but I have expected something better instead.
Pros:
- sound quality - I enjoy it. After changing my interface to Motu 828 gen5, I enjoy it even more (so a good amp is a must).
- comfortable for ears and head, even when using for longer time
- good for tracking, vocal and instrument recording
- I use them as alternative listening experience for my songs, can show some mixing mistakes easier.
- lows sound energized and deep without booming
- highs are not harsh enough
- low mids are detailed
- upper mids are killing me - I love the way these earphones reproduce 2-4KHz frequencies.... but it is nicer than the reality :-) So be careful with your mixes.
