With 80-ohm impedance, this configuration sits in a balanced place between being able to power demanding 250-ohm and consumer-grade 32-ohm headphones, providing a versatile design that will excel on high-end audio sources while being easily driven by smart devices. The wide frequency range of 5 Hz to 35 kHz reproduces nuance and detail within audio signals, and the DT 770 PRO sports an optimized impulse response for clear transients and accuracy. The ergonomics are refined for long-lasting durability and comfort, thanks to soft and replaceable velour earpads and a padded headband with a sturdy spring steel hoop. The DT 770 PRO includes a 1/4" TRS plug adapter.
- Super sound quality, especially when paired with a dedicated headphone amp
- A wider soundstage with more precise imaging
- High scalability, with the ability to improve sound quality when a better audio source or amp is used
- Breathable velour: The soft velour earpads offer breathability, for a high level of comfort and long-lasting durability.

- Lightweight construction: At a mere 13.2 oz including the cable, the headphones are surprisingly light and yet sturdy, so nothing stands in the way of long studio sessions.
The Auray MS-5230F Tripod Microphone Stand with Fixed Boom features durable, steel construction. The 31.5" boom arm allows you to angle the mic however you need it. An ergonomic twist-action clutch helps adjust the height of the stand, while the reinforced tripod base and nonslip feet keep it firmly and sturdily in place. The Auray MS-5230F mic stand collapses for easy transport.
The Kopul Studio Elite 4000 Series XLR M to XLR F Microphone Cable (15') is a studio-quality cable for connecting mics to mixers, preamps, audio interfaces, and recorders or to be used in any other application where XLR connectivity is required. The cable is engineered to be both quiet and durable, and is well suited for critical recording and broadcast situations.
Studio Elite 4000 Series cables are made from 24 AWG OFC copper wire that's wrapped with PE insulation and a conductive PVC inner shield. A cotton-yarn inner layer helps reduce electrostatic and microphonic noise. A 98% braided outer shield makes the cable resistant to EMI and RFI noise. The Neutrik XX silver connectors provide a high level of connectivity, and all the solder connections are shrink-wrapped for protection.
Great for recording in untreated rooms, the Auray RF-5P-R Five-Panel Reflection Filter isolates your microphone from its surrounding environment to minimize distracting noises and diffuse unwanted acoustic reflections. The five, multilayered panels with perforations and high-density acoustic foam combine to absorb ambient noise without adding coloration to your sound, enhancing the clarity and presence of your voice for professional-sounding podcasts, voiceovers, and vocal recordings at home or in the studio.
The RF-5P-R is compatible with most microphone stands and it has integrated feet for standalone desktop recording. A sliding bracket allows you to mount any condenser, dynamic, or USB microphone and easily adjust the depth of the mic's position inside the filter for precise placement. The panels are made of sturdy, yet lightweight plastic and fold up to a tight ring for convenient storage and travel.
- Five adjustable panels, each with a fold-down top panel enable you to configure the filter to meet your acoustic needs. Spread the panels to form a filter wall for miking speaker cabinets, or fold them to create a narrow, 300° enclosure for maximum isolation and dry, clean vocals.
- The panels feature a stylish black finish with red accents.
- The high-density acoustic foam absorbs acoustic reflections and minimizes room ambience.
- The perforated screens diffuse sound as it passes through the shield, preventing sound reflections from bouncing off surfaces and back into the microphone.
- The RF-5P-R is equipped with flip-down top panels that help minimize noise coming from above the microphone including overhead air ducts and fluorescent light fixtures.
- Built-in feet let you mount the RF-5P-R on a desktop for recording podcasts at home or in the office.
- The 5/8"-27 thread enables you to mount the filter on a standard studio mic stand.
- Whether you’re using a large-diaphragm studio condenser or a handheld dynamic mic, the sliding bracket lets you position your microphone inside the filter for the ideal isolation.
