Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)No it doesn't take gas, but it does use far less electricity compared to the 250 ohm version (previously owned) of this Beyerdynamic DT880. The looks are downright swank. Ignore the photo, this model comes with a slick blue outline around the "ring" of the grilles. It still has that same "nobody can touch this comfort" of the 250 ohm, plus it is so tough it can double as a "vest" if you're unfortunately caught in a shootout. However, the sound is...Well...(Sigh)...FLAT OUT AWESOME!
My neck needs aspirin. It is not supposed to move this fast and hard for this long. Uncontrollable headboppin' comes with this dope package.
Highs - Slightly forward, and highly resolved, although a touch bright. Nonetheless, be engaged to enter into another realm. The highs are borderline immaculate. Leave the grain for a box of Wheaties, there's none up here. Piano's sound ultra-realistic on this can with a resolution that I've never heard before. Great extension with virtually no roll-off insures that you will get the full High-Def effect of the crystalline highs, regardless of the music genre.
Mids - They are more forward than the 250 ohm version. Even the specs on Headroom dot com shows this on the graph. Voices and notes in the midrange make haste to reach your inner ear drum. In fact, the mids are so live, you'd swear there's a party going on in there. So if you decide to crash it, you will find all the main and supporting singers/vocals/notes brought to your immediate attention. Once again, nobody does vocals like Beyerdynamic. Lush like the Amazon rainforest, and smoother than a bottle of Grey Goose, the mids carry the "life" of the music and they are certainly done with justice on this 32 ohm model.
Lows - Once again, these 1-up the 250 ohm model. The bass still goes subterranean deep, and is still tighter than a wedgie, except now, these come with a coupon. A coupon for about 20% more bass! No doubt, those that felt the 250 ohm didn't have enough, well I hope you're feeling greedy. These should satisfy your appetite now. Great extension and slam make for one incredibly well-balanced headphone when combined with the other ranges. The bass notes still have that 3D-like texture that is readily apparent across all music genres and movies. Once again, the Headroom graph shows more emphasis in this area.
Soundstage - It's as wide as Aunt Betty, and about as deep as Microsoft's pockets. Fantastic imaging will bring that holographic effect to your tunes. Notes and their relative positions are easy to locate like a good GPS system. Well, you might as well get lost in here, because the music just surrounds you with utter precision and crystal-clear timbre. There is also a great sense of "air" between the notes that is naturally pleasing.
Detail Retrieval - These are the most revealing phones I've ever heard. There were just a few little details that even my long-term M50's missed that the DT880's found. Still today, I'm hearing new details. Even though they're small, it's still new. Across the entire frequency band, you are sure to catch everything in your music and digested quickly by your ears. No doubt, the higher the quality of your source, the more these cans will reward you, and we all like that.
Value - These are quite pricey, but to my tastes and needs no other can beats the performance/price/comfort/durability of these ones period. This review was written currently at just 3 hrs. of burn in., connected to a Sony NWZ-A729 Walkman and a Total Airhead amp sandwiched in between. Hands down, if you favor the Beyer sound, and need a less power-thirsty phone compared to the other models, look no further.
