I've had the Beyredynamic DT 531 headphones for over 2 years now I got them for the bargain price of £75 brand new, the RRP was £150.
Sound Quality
The sound quality of these headphones is amazing for the price, I've tried a number of headphones rangeing fom £100 to £350 and these beat them all. They have a warm crisp sound with amazing bass for an open backed headphone. To get the most out of these headphones you should use a good headphone amplifier such as the Rega Ear.
Comfort
The DT 531's are very comfortable, they have big velour covered foam earpads that surround the entire ear.
Looks & Design
These headphones are of the open back design, so are not suitable for private listening as quite a bit of sound escapes from the rear of the headphones. The headphones are well designed, the headband can be adjusted to fit any size 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.
I have never been more pleased with a purchase. I absolutely love these headphones. The reason is becuase I have been looking for a pair that ticks all the boxes for so long that I actually thought that the perfect pair did not exist. I have tried too... more
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 more
