Review on beyerdynamic DT 880 Premium Edition 250 Ohm Over-Ear Headphones - Wired Semi-Open Design for High-End Stereo Systems by Hemant Hemant ᠌

The blockage on the bottoms (sub) (midbass is ok) by ~ 5db, the shelf at the high frequencies by about the same 3-5db, because of which everything sounds sharp, often click and sibilant, actually because of it I can’t listen to them at high volume. Everyone who says that these headphones have more details than competitors either lie or get confused, confuse pseudo-details because of the frequency response. Positioning is good, but this is probably due to the same pseudo-detail (the mouth of the instrument is smaller due to low-frequency blockage and therefore it is easier to localize) The stage is quite large, but there is no depth, it feels like a wall of sound at a fixed distance. And now the most interesting - equalization. If you equalize them evenly, then you will not understand where all the details have disappeared . I have already described the answer to this dilemma above. As a result, I had to leave the highs pulled up, otherwise the 880 does not work out its position at all. Typical analytical headphones. 770 and 990 are the same, but with a sharper sound, so I do not advise you to look at them.
