Beyerdynamic DT 770 M

Advantages: Build,sound quality,comfort
Disadvantages: none

...I've owned these headphones for a number of years now. I chose them because being in or around the music industry i knew that beyerdynamic was the industry standard. The BBC use mostly DT100's for example. I paid i think £150 which to me was a lot of money for a set of headphones back then. I tried them on in the shop and instantly knew they were the headphones for me as they were so comfortable you didnt really know you had them on which is rare for a fully enclosed headphone. On getting them home i played some pink floyd through them using a fairly high end home set up. The sound response was remarkable. There were things coming through from the music i had never even heard before. This being because of the very large frequency response. It was like discovering my cd collection again. I have also used them on hi-fi of all qualities... Read review

Advantages: Unbelievably clean and powerful Bass
Disadvantages: Old fashioned looks may disuade some buyers

.... The mid gets a bit drowned out by the beautiful bass tones in these phones so they are definately suited to dance music. However, I have seen pictures of bands using these phones (Bloc Party) and also actors (Matt Damon) wearing them during interviews in the BBC radio studio. This means they must be goodif they are trusted at that sort of level. Durability is immense. These are tough phones that will take a battering with breaking. Looks arent everything and that applies here. I personally like the way they resemble old fashioned audio equipment but some will find them bulky and ugly. I really dont care what people think when they see them beucase I am in a world of pleasure when they are on. Please buy these and support Beyerdynamic becuase they truly are a quality product and can be had for about £80 which is exceptional value for money... Read review

Advantages: Comfotable, clear sound
Disadvantages: None

...head, the cable comes from both earpieces and is 3m long. The headphones come with an adapter so can fit 1/8" and 1/4" headphone sockets. Durability I've used these headphones regularly for the past 2 years and never had a problem with them. Value for Money The DT 531s have now unfortunately been discontinued, but if you can find a pair secondhand, get them they are better than other headphones I've tried at 4x the price. Conclusion If you can still find a pair you will not be dissapointed with these headphones, they are fantastic.... Read review
