Amazing headphones. Got the 600Ohm version with a sw8 headphone amp for producing music, and everything sounds great!
I wanted to love them. I really did. But it never happened. I like them, I appreciate them, no doubt, but I wouldn't call it love. Lots of people recommend these as the ultimate in revealing, flat headphones that do nothing wrong. And I agree to some extend.
I was quite disappointed with my DT880. I thought they'd make for excellent christmas present, but I was really wrong.
- High sensitivity for such impedance; extended bass; undistorted treble
- Lacking frequency balance; V-shaped response (smiley face); soundstage too shallow & small
Soft cushion comfort with the perfect grip, plus a sound that has impressive all-round ability.
Impressive all-round ability
Need more attack
The Beyerdynamic DT 880 Edition in the 600 Ohm version is a great hi-fi headphone and especially suitable for lovers of classical music and acoustics. Those who like to immerse themselves in music and sound should definitely try the DT 880.
Although most full-size headphones with audiophile pretensions have open designs that allow the listener to hear outside sounds, a few models are closed to hush ambient noise. The Beyerdynamic DT 880s have a semiopen design that combines the attributes of open and closed headphones .
The Beyerdynamic DT 880 headphones are among the most comfortable on the market, and they come packaged in a gorgeous padded aluminum storage case; The headphones use a standard miniplug connector but include a 1/4-inch adapter and a 15-foot extension cord
The DT 880s are expensive; and ill suited for use with the iPod
Despite the option for a 32Ω set of headphones, nobody should really be considering the DT 880s-or any open backed headphones-for mobile use. However, if used in the right situation, these cans are gold-despite the silvery exterior.
The DT880s are BeyerDynamic's flagship headphones. Following on from their incredibly successful DT531, the later Beyers such as the DT770, DT880 and DT990 have captured many people's hearts with their unique sounds.
Incredible highs; Wonderful tight bass; Wide Soundstage; Comfortable
May be too neutral for some
Beyerdynamic appears to have taken a leaf out of the car industry's book by keeping a product name from years ago, but then completely changing the design. No doubt this will ensure havoc on eBay in years to come...
Comfortable to wear
Less bassy than most headphones
