I use the foobar2000 player with EQ off playing various files from FLAC to m4a to mp3 (VBR/CBR 320). Overall I believe the dt880 600 ohm is an investment that can be safely considered especially for its.

size=small] The Beyerdynamic DT880 sound can be classified as being treble oriented with slightly recessed mids (will get tot hat later) and having slow or muddy bass (will get to that as well). The ear cups are made of high quality plastic with aluminum accents and a stainless steel grill on the exterior.I wish I never found the DT880s because they are slowly ending my Head-Fi quest for sound :[ I've even read a review comparing HD800s and DT880 600ohm. Since the spectral differences are all very broad and devoid of peaks, listening for extended periods our ears compensate, and the DT 880 sounds absolutely awesome. Pressure on the top of the head is very well spread out, no spaces on the top of the head can be seen with them on.

The DT 880 beats out every other Mid-Fi headphone I've tried or owned in terms of build quality, hands down. V shaped, no actually theres are one of the most balanced cans, what your enjoying is a very balanced sound signiture.Unless you plan to go portable with this headphone, in which case there are much better options for that purpose.

The DT-880 is really the only one that I find to excel at all genres from rap to classical and everything in between.This makes the sound of the Treble on these headphones noticeably bright, and they could sound a bit harsh on overly bright tracks.

If you need to turn the bass control to full then you're a basshead and should be looking at Beats by Dre. The individual strings that compose the unified sound are easily identified singularly, yet enjoyed just as easily as a whole. Recently, I found that the SE DT880/600 with Decware CSP-2 may be another combo that is capable of highly refined and revealing SQ. Personally, I bought the 600 Ω version and it works great even in my iPod, just not very loud, and of course is fantastic with my studio gear. Most people will know that neutral headphones are great for creating music, expect these headphones to suits this kind of music well, so let me use this example to say how versatile these headphones are.The manufacturing of the DT 880 is impeccable; I have them since the beginning of 2018 and although it has slid from my desk quite a few times, it looks and functions just like the first day. I prefer single sided cables for one reason, it's another easy way to tell which side is which in the dark.
