Title: Favorite closed cans for Crack?
Post by: JimJ on August 23, 2015, 08:31:05 AM

Hey there!

I was just about to pull the trigger on some Beyer DT250s, but before I do, I was wondering what else out there I may be overlooking. I'm looking for a high-impedance pair that have to be closed, unfortunately :( I think if I tried running a pair of HD600s in my office, they'd hang me by my own headphone cord...

What else have you guys liked for $500 and under? I've heard that Beyer is coming out with the DT1770, but I hear conflicting reports on whether it'll be flat enough in FR to make it worth the wait.

Thanks in advance!

Can not comment on other cans but I do have a pair of the Beyer DT250s and they insulate very well my misses is now able to drift off to sleep peacefully when I am listening to tunes laying next to her. They also sound much better than their price tag suggests. Do be aware they have a reputation of requiring 10-20hrs burn in the change is quite noticeably for the better compared too straight out the box.

I really like my Beyer dynamics dt770pros.  Good value for the sound.
