Hello. I have been using a pair of Beats Studio 3 and a pair of AirPods now for a couple of years. I was always happy with how they sounded, thinking ”how much better can it really get”, but obviously I knew it could get better.

I produce music and for that I have been using my HyperX Cloud gaming headset due to the Beats having too much bass for that. In the last months I have gotten more serious about music production so I bought a new pair of headphones for it, the Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 250 Ohm.

And I’m amazed to say the least. The clarity, the soundscape, the imaging, the sharp but not too sharp treble and the bass. All my favourite songs have improved tenfold. I can hear things I have never heard before in them, every little detail. It’s just insane what a difference it is.

Now I know these are far from the best headphones but I am extremely happy with them, I just laid on the floor for 4.5 hours after work just listening to music.

Nice! I'm glad you're enjoying them. What type of music do you listen to?

Believe it or not, it can happen again. I upgraded from a pair of DT990 pros to the Drop + DCA Aeon X opens a few days ago, and I've just been listening to hours and hours of music since then. It's not as big an upgrade, to the Beyerdynamics' credit, they get you like 90-95 percent of the way to where the Aeons are, but that little bit makes a lot of difference. Now I'm investigating the idea of getting a modest dac/amp with a balanced output, to see if I can hear anything new.

Welcome to the rabbit hole! You are correct in thinking things can get better, but you have a nice set of headphones now.

Nice. Now just continue to enjoy them. You're happy, so no need to start chasing your next pair. Just continue to lay on that floor and enjoy the tunes my man.

EQ them. They sound shockingly veiled once you hear them with EQ. There's lots more detail to be had for free.

Try some HD 660s sometime. I’m like addicted to them. Never going back to AirPods ever again.
