beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO X Limited Edition review

Their 990 and 770 headphones made waves in the 80s, an open back and closed-back design respectively, famed for their comfort for long studio sessions, as well as for professional level sound. Modern iterations saw the DT 770 PRO and DT 990 PRO, and eventually the addition of the PRO X, with an improved driver design for more volume with less distortion, and unbelievably wide, crisp and accurate stereo field, all built to withstand the rigours of the stage and studio. The DT 770 PRO X’s closed back design provides both isolation for recording sessions, as well as reducing crosstalk and bleed from one headphone cup to the other, improving stereo clarity and field.

The DT 770 PRO X Ltd are celebrated this year borrowing from the 770’s closed-back design for superior studio isolation, featuring a dynamic transducer, a nominal impedance of 48Ω, responding to everything from 5Hz up to 40kHz. 40kHz might seem excessive, but this also means that the DT 770 PRO X Ltd have unparalleled headroom, offering clear, accurate and concise sound for world-class music production.
