Audio46's Opinion
These headphones pack a studio-quality sound without breaking the bank. Notable upgrades like a memory foam headband and a detachable cable make these much more versatile than their previous iterations. Some criticisms like flat bass response and lack of resistance options mean that users with niche gear or bass preferences may not love these headphones. At the same time, I'm having a difficult time thinking of better sound quality in this price range. Their low distortion and clean highs make them an excellent studio tool.

THE NEXT CHAPTER OF A STUDIO LEGEND
For 100 years, we have been driven by the pursuit of the best sound. Thanks to numerous innovations such as the first dynamic stereo headphones DT 48, the robust studio legend DT 100, and the globally renowned DT 770 PRO, we are now considered to be a reference for professional studio headphones.
To celebrate our 100-year company anniversary, we are releasing the DT 770 PRO X Limited Edition, a time-limited special edition of studio headphones. They combine the reference-setting features of the DT 770 PRO with the flexibility of the dynamic STELLAR.45 driver system and a detachable cable. Made in Germany, the DT 770 PRO X Limited Edition opens a new chapter in the successful beyerdynamic DT series.
A TRIED-AND-TESTED ACOUSTIC SIGNATURE
The DT 770 PRO X Limited Edition circumaural studio headphones feature the tried-and-tested acoustic signature of the DT 770 PRO. Powerful basses, detailed trebles and first-class impulse behaviour – professional musicians, producers, studio operators and sound engineers have been trusting in these qualities for decades. Flexible and powerful, the studio headphones are perfect for recording and monitoring purposes thanks to their closed-back design.
THE REFERENCE FOR A RANGE OF PLAYBACK EQUIPMENT
Thanks to their dynamic STELLAR.45 driver (48 ohms) with its broad frequency response of 5–40,000 Hz, the DT 770 PRO X Limited Edition headphones deliver studio reference sound on a wide range of playback equipment.
STELLAR.45
The sound transducer uses a neodymium magnet and a voice coil made from copper-plated precision wires. The resulting high conductivity of the driver system at low weight is the reason for its high performance. The driver system keeps distortion extremely low, even at high sound pressures. The STELLAR.45 has an impedance of 48 ohms and proves that low-impedance sound transducers can deliver excellent studio-quality sound.
YOU WANT IT, YOU GET IT: A DETACHABLE CABLE
As requested by a number of users, the DT 770 PRO X Limited Edition headphones now offer even more flexibility thanks to their detachable cable. The headphones come with a 3m-long straight cable with lockable 3-pin mini XLR connector. This can be connected to a variety of devices thanks to a 3.5mm stereo jack including a screwable 6.3mm adaptor.
THE MOST COMFORTABLE 770 OF ALL TIME
For decades, the studio headphones in the DT range have not only been classified as a sound reference, but also a benchmark in comfort. In addition to the robust spring steel headband construction, it is the iconic velour ear pads that ensure the headphones are comfortable even for long studio sessions. The soft memory foam used in the headband means it ergonomically adjusts to the shape of the head. One new feature is the integrated fontanel recess. Both the headband and the ear pads can be replaced if necessary.
PROFESSIONAL HEADPHONES MADE IN GERMANY
Made in Germany, the DT 770 PRO X Limited Edition headphones are characterised by the high production quality that beyerdynamic has stood for over many decades. The driver system is manufactured within extremely tight tolerances and measured several times during the various production steps.
The combination of robust metal parts and impact- and scratch-resistant ABS plastic make the DT 770 PRO X Limited Edition a long-lasting companion for everyday studio use. For sustainability reasons, almost every part of the studio headphones can be replaced.
