This is an interesting headphone. I do wonder whether Beyer changed their thoughts on the lead length. It’s about six feet long and not curled. I was expecting a curly one but I do prefer the straight. My 250 ohm version has a curly lead which is annoying for me. I know that the pro ones have the lead curled and the standard ones are straight.
Anyway, I like the DT770 but the impedance makes it difficult to use mobile or on lesser powered players so I now have this 32 ohm variant.
I have to say, it sounds great as well. Bass is probably too high for some. But that’s what I like about the DT770. It just goes so deep. I use the 250 ohm version for monitoring along with a Sony mdr7506. They both do the job great. The Sony picks out mic faults and hiss/buzz etc with ease and the dt770 gives more an idea of how mixes might sound on speakers.
The 32ohm version has slightly more bass than the 250 ohm but actually, that’s good for mobile use and also, with underpowered devices, sometimes the bigger one does lose its oomph in the bottom end and goes thin. This version doesn’t. So they have got that right I think for its intended use.
So far, so good, shorter lead and great bass and clarity like the 250 ohm.
The pads are pleather not velour. Maybe they give better isolation? I imagine in hot places, the pleather might be annoying but I also think that the pleather pads raise the bass. I did try pleather on my 250 ohm version and the bass did go up.
Anyway, the 32 ohm version is more sensitive than the 250 ohm. It’s not a massive difference because I buess they’re not as sensitive as some other portable headphones but it’s just so nice to be able to go out and have a fully bodied, clean sound giving big bass without mud on your head without an amp.
At £90 or so, these really are a good buy for better portable listening. I like them a lot.
Just one thing Beyer could have done. Put a socket on the left cup so that you can change the lead.
