We found out that the 250 ohm version of these headphones ships with a 3m coiled cable instead of a 3m straight cable. The page has been updated to reflect these changes.

Hello, 1. Do these headphones have any differences from the reference DT 700 Pro except another label and black pads instead of gray? 2. I plan to use these headphones together with SoundBlasterX G6. Which impedance (80 or 250 Omhs) is better to choose for this particular sound card?

Hi.

They have the same drivers. Just 2 difference: the branding in the cups dt770 pro XX ohm vs dt770 pro limited edition xx ohm. The other is the pads. Black pads are stiffer than the grey ones ( subtle comfort and initial sound, not significant. They became the same after they are worn out. You can buy replacement pads in any color if you want to change them from Beyerdynamic at anytime)
i haven’t used that amp. But the 80 and 250 have a different sound signature. 80 ohm more bass less treble. 250 ohm have more treble and some said is more cleaner and detailed. Some users also said they power requirements in both model is actually pretty close( if you want to take advantage of the extra bass), the 80 ohm requires more power for the bass.

I haven’t try any of this model but I will join the drop for the 80 ohm I want a closer back with bass.

Sorry to kill the party, but Amazon is having a limited sale now and these HPs are going for $101 USD.

I am trying to get the price to work. Maybe they are just for 15-16 day sale.

That’s it. You might be right. I’m in JP and I often surf the US site because it’s cheaper than the JP site sometimes, even with customs, etc.

I'm considering these a gift for my partner who mostly would be listening to music/creating via a MacBook Pro. Which impedance would be best for that? The 32 or the 80?

lower is better for challenged consumer electronics headphone amps. Higher is better for pro gear like mixing boards.

Beyerdynamic is known to make different ohm version. On the dt880 and dt990 sound is considered “better “ for the 600 ohm ( being 600>250>32). For the dt770 the frequency response change from the 80 ohm and the 32/250 ohm. The 80 have more bass and a little less treble than the 32/250 ohm. So for portable the 32 would be the easy to drive. To take advantage of the extra bass in the 80 ohm an amp will make them justice. I read somewhere the power requirements for the 80 is similar to the 250. Sound quality wise I would recommend get an amp and either the 80 and 250ohm version depending on your sound preference.

I have a pair of these and they have pretty much become my go-to headphones for public scenarios. Good isolation, reasonably low noise leakage, and amazing sound. They are a little hard to drive from an iPhone w/o an amp, but unless you want to blast the music very loud, you can do w/o one. If you are using them w/ a phone, I highly recommend pairing them with the excellent Jetaudio music player with some of its extra features enabled to get the most out of it. A little spatialization and custom EQing really makes these shine. The cord is weirdly long, and I’d recommend replacing the stock earpads with some Brainwavz for a better seal and more comfort. Detachable cables would’ve been nice, but for the price these are very hard to beat.

The eternal question to the company (Beyerdynamic) is why this model is not updated with removable cable, but most of all, why the 16Ω version has remained out of the offer and out of production, being produced at the time only as a limited production run. In these mobile times that headphone is reportedly easier to run of the smartphone and laptop without the need for USB DAC/amp. For anyone who would now want to enter "the debate" with the "argument" that the 32Ω version is efficient enough, no, I would not agree with that, since I have spent some time with it, and run detailed comparisons with some other headphones that are often listed as a competitors within the price bracket/segment. This has more to do with the combination of the impedance (less important) and relatively low sensitivity (96db), the latter seems to be somewhat limiting factor. For the sound quality, this headphone would have been much better without either bass-reflex system (which seems to yield an exaggerated bass response, ruining what could have otherwise been a fantastic headphone for the price) or with some serious dampening adjustments to the driver and/or the membrane, in order to make the bass response less exaggerated . This headphone has otherwise excellent sonic potential, great natural tonality, speed, detail retrieval. To me - the (at times) overwhelming bass response simply kills the joy.

You should check out the Custom Ones then if you want 16 ohms and removable cable. There's also the Custom Studio, which has tunable bass response more to your liking, though it's 80 ohms. Also you should check the output impedance of the source you're using, for the 80ohm version ideally your source has output impedance of 10 ohm or less.
