DT 880 PRO

Would keep their DT 880 PRO 600 Ω, which has been great for everything they've done.

Owned the DT 880 PRO: bright, good mids and surprisingly open for a semi-open, rock-solid build and comfortable once broken in, but lacking bass even next to the HD 600.

“I like the DT 880, I have owned the Pro variant. It's bright, but it's unilaterally bright. The midrange is also quite good, and it's a decently "open" headphone despite what some might expect.”

Has used the DT 880 PRO for years: stock it sounds bright and thin, but EQed to the Hifi-Endgame target it's phenomenal, with clean punchy bass; distortion-free with power, comfortable, durable, with a great coiled cable.

“But tuned to one's favorite target (Hifi-Endgame probably being the best ATM), the sound is phenomenal. The driver can absolutely provide exceptionally clean and punchy bass that you could never imagine with factory tuning.”
