Beyerdynamic DT 770 M Reviews

Doesn't isolate well enough to be useful

I am a drummer, and because I have a problem with earwax buildup, I wanted to stop using earplugs and IEMs. So, I was looking for some circumaural headphones which could serve the same purpose. A lot of typical earplugs claim noise attenuation of 30 dB, and my Etymotic IEMs claim 35-40. The DT770M claims 35 dB, but unfortunately this doesn't work at all. They don't even come remotely close to isolating as well as even the cheapest foam earplugs, rendering them useless. If you're looking for something to replace earplugs or IEMs, you're out of luck. In addition, the shallow pleather pads also get hot and sweaty very fast, and while the cable is of very nice quality, the in-line volume control is bulgy and very cheap and plasticy.As a side note:These are more for utilitarian purposes and not really for music listening pleasure, but even so, the sound quality is just utterly appaling. Although Beyerdynamic's normal headphones are top notch, these are simply awful in case you were wondering. There are $20 headphones out there that could put these to shame, and these cost $

Lacking where it matters most

I planned to use these headphones on stage (bass playing) in order to minimize hearing loss due to loud stage volume (loud drummer). As I have hearing loss on the mid and high frequencies I cannot evaluate the sound fidelity of these headphones. Construction seems to be Ok; the included carrying pouch is nice. However, in my opinion, they are lacking in the one area I bought them for: noise isolation. Compared to the Vic Firth isolation headphones, which are rated at 22dB, I cannot believe the DT 770Ms provide up to 35dB of ambient noise isolation. I agree with another reviewer that you can hear pretty much everything around you. Isolation headphones these are not. After further evaluation, I decided to return them and look for other alternatives.
