Thank you all so much for tuning in. I hope I helped someone today. Don't forget to check these headphones out and more gear that could possibly help you on your creativity journey here ---> 🎧 Sony MDR-7506 - amzn.to/2lOm7hS 🎧 Sennheiser HD280 Pro - amzn.to/2mLoXUW 🎧 Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 250ohm - amzn.to/2nh8V5q
Do you know about word clock between Apogee Rosetta 800 and Apollo twin MK2? I recently upgraded my studio to get from Mac G5 to MacBook pro and I added Apollo twin MK2 wanted to link the both of them.
I appreciate how concise this video was and how it wasn't unnecessarily extended to 10+ minutes like some other channels. Very helpful in making my decision!
I just got the DT 770 250 ohm's and love them. They work great through my interface (which I bought about the same time). Teaching my self how to mix and master my own music and wanted a quality pair of cans...these are it! Thanks for the review I watched it first then bought!
@@evergreatest7644 I have a Motu M2, very low latency! I also run an ART Voice Channel through that I use for vocals. I just like to have a little processing going into my DAW, makes mixing vocals a little easier.
Don't forget the Sony CD900st's. For 189 bucks you get one of the flattest most analytical soundstages available in studio headphones. Basically the more serious version of the 7506's.
Well I got to get two pair of studio headphones on a budget. One for me monitoring in front of the computer, and one for the singer/musician listening to an instrument.
I spent 4 years using university equipment, but now I’m starting out building up my gear and this has been really helpful as I need to stay on the more cost effective Side of things.
I just got a pair last week and hated them when I first put them on, but now have grown to like them more and more breaking them in. Everything is super flat but that is a good thing. Allows me to adjust things properly. I mostly use them for my guitar through interface and amp sims.
Random video for me, but I do agree with you on Beyerdynamic 250ohm. I bought mine years ago, and the feel as well as sound reproduction is still the same. Funny thing is, I still constantly switch between my headphones, my KRK and Behringer Truth active speakers in a session lol Good video man 👍 Cheers
i really need to listen to some dt770's... they're on pretty much every list of people who actually know what they're talking about and don't just recommend whichever most expensive pair of rgb headphones there is out there... they're "older than my granny" and are still featured everywhere lol... there's even cheap amps out there for like 55€ that could power up to 300Ohm so that might be the way to go when my current set goes fubar lol
@@astheworldburns3590 massdrop to europe would make the 6xx cost the same as the 650 by the time i got them released from customs lol, and that's just too much for my pocket. take the dt770 as an example, i could get them currently for pretty much half the price of the 6xx without having to pay import taxes. that's the sort of compromise i have to take into consideration 😅
I just compared the HD 280 Pro and the DT 770 Pro, and they are indeed both great headphones, but with a very different sound: The HD 280 Pro is very analytical, more focused on the mids with a lot of detail there. The DT 770 Pro sounds much more full-range, with more emphasis on the lows and highs. Both don't hide anything, but the HD 280 Pro does it in an in-your-face way, and the DT 770 Pro sounds much more fun and easy and also works great for casual listening. I like the ruggedness and repairability on both, but the comfort and sound profile of the DT 770 Pro wins me over for sure! Price difference in Germany is not that big: 90€ for the HD 280 Pro, 140€ for the DT 770 Pro. So I kept the Beyerdynamic.
Hello. I like the Sennheiser HD 280 pro because they have great sound quality and they are comfortable. Also, the cups are easy to replace. I hope this helps and thanks for dropping by :)
I love the DT 770s for bass and mids but the highs are a bit gnarly and flat. You could find yourself adding way too much HF if you use these as your main mix cans. But the bass and mids are great.
Thank you .... comprehensive and concise. I'm in Canada and it's 2021 so prices are very different. The Sennheiser HD280PRO being the least expensive so far.
Great information bro, especially about the length of time to have the headphones on; you don't hear that from too many people. I am definitely grabbing some Beyerdynamic jawns! Appreciate you bro!
Great video! I use the Sony 7510 and I think they are an absolute pleasure to mix on! But I’ll agree w u on the harshness, but I still think it’s one of the best pairs of budget headphones.
The Hotboxin with Mike Tyson show uses the DT770. That was good enough for me to just buy them. I bought the 32 Ohm version though because I just want them plugged in to my laptop. It was an extra $20 if I wanted the gray version, I skipped that and got the black ones for $20 less.
Amazing review. Is it possible for you to give some final thoughts on Sennheiser HD 280 PRO. I use alot of bass in almost every track. Are we able to monitor the 808s?
Thank you for a concise and honest comparison review. I am trying to find a good balance between budget and quality and this was a nicely brief and helpful. How do you feel these three compare for sound leaking that could be picked up by a mic? Thank you.
As someone who owned the HD280s, imma say flat out no. The ath m20x's are better at half the price and at that price range you can get the m40x's too. Idk if i can trust your opinion on the other ones cause if you heard the audio technicas you would know those sennheisers aren't worth the price so maybe it would change your opinion on the other 2 as well. Not saying the HD280s are bad, they got me through art school, but god damn do they sound muddy compared to even the m20x's, that audio technica clarity is something else.
I use MDRs to record, but when I mix down I listen on DT770s, ATH m50X and Shure HD 440. The HD 280 is boosting bass too much while the 770s and Sennheiser 240, cut the bass too much. The MDRs are in the middle. I'm not convinced the 770s are flatter if the bass isn't there. I also like SRH 440s, Superlux 681.
Hey, i am going for the beyerdynamics can i use them without problems with my lowbudget behringer umc22? Any advices ? Actually i want the 250 Ohm Version because of the awesome nonflat cable:)
Hello. Thank you for these videos. The headphones mentioned- Are they good fro voice over work as well as singing. I do both but i don't want to invest in two different sets of headphones
Hi Fuschia! You are welcome and thank you for watching. All of these headphones would be perfect for singing and voice over work. Now the difference is quality. I just recently did an updated video with slightly more expensive but these headphones would be helpful as well. Out of this list, I think the Beyerdynamic DT770 would be perfect and the best. Also, the new video I'm speaking of is this one. I hope this helps and thanks again. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ulhUMZkMleg.html
Archie Beatz it’s funny that you put an ! After my name- Fuschia! Is my SAG/AFTRA name. Ok cool. I was leaning towards the Beyerdynamic Dt770’s w/ 250... after I heard yu mention - my mind was made up. Thank yu so much- I’ll check out this video as well- maybe I’ll change my mind again lol!
It’s me again. Ok I listened to the other video - headphones under $300- & it sounds like I don’t need the headphones mentioned with the 250 alms (sp) I don’t want to have to buy a mic amp- so what do yu suggest if not the DT770 (I’m going off memory here lol! ) I want them now mostly for voice over work but I don’t want to have as many headphones as you have right now (lol!) I’d like to invest in a very nice pair of closed back headphones that will be awesome for voice over work & be able to use them if I have to do some vocals. I hope I’m explaining this correctly as well as asking the right question.
I’m surprised Sen.HD280 made it on the list despite being the cheapest. I always curious what they sound like, maybe I’ll give it a try. I’m coming from an ATH M50.
Went to guitar center to try these out, the issue I has was they sounded flat AFTER mastering. I like that their eat cups though, won’t flake off like all these others. I don’t know if I’m missing something and that’s how it’s suppose to be so I’m wondering, how does that give me an idea of how other people will hear the music? Also it’s harder for me to get into the song I’m mastering when it sounds bland no matter what. Still learning all of this
I'm back at ya Archie....got to find some reference studio headphones. I purchase the Blue Bird SL for 129.00 and the HS8's for 456.00 plus tax on the holiday season sales.
Good review, I have the Beyers and the Sony. Don't know if it's just me but I find the Beyers Bass signature very weak. Sound tends to distort very easily at higher levels unlike the Sony. Also have the Audio Technica MSR7's. my absolute favourites....
Amazing video! although 8 in comfortability on the Sennheiser HD 280?? After a few hours my head shrinks a little with the pressure of those headphones. 😅
Thank you for your review! I'm leaning towards the Sennheiser 280 pro for playing on a digital piano. Would you recommend a different model for that use? Would the 280 pros hurt my ears after a while? Thank you.
Have you ever tried the audio Technica ath-m70x? I recently bought a pair and am absolutely in love with them. They sound incredible, I also own a pair of 80ohm dt770’s which I also love
sorry im late but which one is the best for someone who is just starting out in making beats. I do have the the money for expensive ones but If their is any cheaper ones I rather have those
Great video. I'm looking at getting the 770 pros. Jw, my mother board on my computer says it supports up to 600Ohm. So I wouldn't need a amp if that is true. But if all these motherboards have sound amp built in then why would so many pc gamers have amps?
hi bro, thanks for the precious informations (great video like always). i have a question please. iam an voice over, i have a "presonus studio 24c audio interface" and i wanna use this headphones for recording, so which one is better to use for this type of work, "the BEYERDYNAMIC DT 770 PRO-80ohm version" or "the 250ohm version".
Being real here. The DT 770 is advertised as a v sound signature and colors the sound. Why would you recommend this for mixing? You always want a neutral set of cans for mixing. First time seeing your Channel obviously not telling you how to do your job but that's a pretty basic 101 thing that you're missing here.
Thankyou i appreciate this video these beyerdynamic 250 seem best for me for vocals ect. Not sure if will need a amp for them but if so can you suggest one?
I'm not sure if I should get the dt770s or the dt990s 250 ohms, Which one would be the better option for mixing? Or does it just come down to personal taste since they're both great?
The DT990s are open-back which tends to be used more for mixing and mastering as the audio doesn't get muffled (stuck in the cups) as it would in closed back (the DT770s). So I'd suggest DT990s for that particular case. They somewhat give the sound more space to 'travel' like it would when you'd listen to the music in an open-space.
A closed-back could influence the way you hear the sound, thus may fuck up how you perceive your mix. Though let me also add that usually monitors are preferred to be used for mixing. I myself usually use both monitors and headphones for mixing and mastering. But yeah, in the end go with your guts and good luck!
The 770's and the 990's use the same sound interface, but the 990's are open headphones. The low-end frequencies do escape a little through the backside of the 990's. If you want to record audio, then the 770's are better because they're closed and the audio won't bleed. I have personally used the 880's for 3 years, and they give a really balanced mix (great for long mixing sessions). But I bought the 990's later on to get a better hearing on the high-end (does the job)! I still want to buy the 770's just for recording audio.. Now Im using other closed headphones for recording.
Taking price out of the equation, what would you say are the best headphones for mixing and mastering (best clarity, detail, balanced, width, soundstage...) Also what do you think about the Neumann NDH 20
Hi Archie! How are you? Thanks for the video! Just a few question, the hd280 are durable? the ones you have now, could you tell me where are they made? thank you!
I produce my self. Rap. And also play guitar. Do you think hd280 or any of these would work with my guitar amp. I wounder if I should just get a cheap pair for the guitar. I’m not sure if the effects anything. What do you think.
Im about to buy a pair of headphones for music production and amateur mixing/mastering and I have 3 options at the same price in my area: Beyer dynamics DT990, Audio Technica ATH40X and the AKG 240 Studio, wich one would recomend for the task? It really matters if its open/closed back? I've already have closed back ones for recording, i just want the best sound quality for the money
Hi Archie new subscriber here! I watch your other vids they are helpful 😊 i just wanna ask what headphones can you recommend to me for recording vocals?
Hey dude thanks for the great video. Maybe you could advise. I’m trying to obviously find a good pair without breaking the bank and that will allow me to really hear the adjustments I make on eq while playing directly from the daw. It’s a drag having to jump in my car each time to listen lol. I know it’s inevitable and good practice. I was leaning toward akg 240 or the Sony. I think open back would be best right? Any advice for synth wave music,? Thanks dude.
Can you make like the best closed and best open back headphones list ? Cause the 770s might be good for mixing but will it be as good as the 990s ? (Cause they're open back). All said and done I loved this video as well.
