Frequently Asked Questions

The DT-250/80 is more neutral and less hyped in the bass than the DT770 Pro, providing a more accurate representation of the source material.
They're lightweight, which helps, but the clamping force can be a bit tight initially; the earpads will soften with use and are replaceable for long-term comfort.
While they'll work with a phone or laptop, a dedicated headphone amp will unlock their full potential, providing more headroom and a cleaner sound.
