This is my 3rd Beyerdynamic already (had current gen DT770 and DT990 models) and they both died after 5 years from the same symptom - plastic bracket at the end of the headband cracked and eventually shattered into pieces, which renders headphones useless

The plastic feels cheap, although plenty sturdy

Additionally, the large hollow plastic ear pieces are a problem insofar as any cable movement/taps (including head movements) etc

The plastic feels cheap, although plenty sturdy

Very good quality construction although the ear cuffs are kind of made out of cheap plastic

My Apple earbuds are fine, (the quality silicone ones, not the included plastic crappy ones) but don't sound the same to me - especially for bass

They are also great for checking mixes in the low end, as well as during the mastering process, for picking up problems in the low end and mid-low end, as well as the high end, where overly harsh highs will be brought out by these phones

I was worried because the material seemed to squeak a

Another thing about these, and any other headphones, is that the sound will improve as the cans break in

When I first plugged these headphones in I wasn`t that impressed as I bought them primarily for the enhanced bass, my previous cans the Sony Mdr-1r were lacking in this

Use these for recording/tracking as well as with my V-Drums.

I HATE Sennheisers as they have no emotion and a very sterile sound.

Honestly, have to say the treble is just as good on these as on the HD800s

I like using the 7506 at the soundboard and the 770’s for listening to music.

n’t loose on my head either
