About this deal
The construction of the DT 770 PRO is reassuringly solid, with a sturdy metal frame and the transducers enclosed in a hard plastic shell.

The DT150 is a dynamic studio headphone for use in broadcasting, film and recording studios and other audio monitoring applic.However, they’re not emphasized to the same degree as they are on other more consumer-friendly headphones.

But you really do need to use a high-quality amplifier or audio interface to get the most out of these headphones. The headphones are designed for critical music and sound monitoring, providing a perfectly neutral listening environment with exceptional isolation and top-notch impulse response. Casual listeners at the computer who need a super-comfortable set of closed-back headphones, or users with glasses will also find a good option in the Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO (80Ω).As I mentioned before, there is also threading for a 1/4-inch adapter for use with older or higher-power systems with the larger connection. Just as a testament to how amazed and awesome these headphones are, I have received my brand new guitar in the same shipment as these headphones.
