Happy 770 owner here too. These are my go-to for those hot summer afternoons with the fans blowing; these isolate well enough that the fans don't overwhelm my tunes! Got my pair while doing grad work, living in a dorm with a snorer roomie. These blocked THAT too. Put on a rain storm, saddle into these cans, and it was blissful coma,all snoring eliminated. And the sound quality is awesome! As previously mentioned, great bass without being BASSY. NICE detail through the mids and highs, a very nice foray into the Beyerdynamic sound sig.
The cushiony pads make for a comfy long-term wear, the headband is just fine, and these are not at all heavy.... which brings me back to a great all-rounder for use in front of my hot summer fans.
This is a good price point for this very nice headphones, actually. And, after YEARS, my cable,which is the coiled version, is still intact, sound is just fine. The ONE mod I have done with these was to un-veil them by removing the foam that covers the speakers from inside the cups. Became immediately more transparent. For anyone wanting to try...start with the quarter mod*, if it's not transparent enough, increase the size of the cut-out gradually, until you get what you want with the ss. I just found that complete removal of that covering gave me exactly what I wanted.
I think this drop is a worthy chance to try a Beyerdynamics set, and a really nice Closed Back. If you haven't yet tried the Beyerdynamic ss, here's an entry level op that you can always re-sell if it's not for you.

* Quarter mod=a quarter sized round cut out of the foam covering the headphone speaker inside the cup. Some folks start with a dime-sized cut out. This mod is particularly famous in the headfi Grado community.
