Now imagine if they made these headphones with interchangeable backs, so you could easily swap them out depending on your needs for a particular situation. This would be a game changer. Like a hybrid model. Best of both worlds.

I'd like to point out that I've never seen anyone else do headphone reviews like you do. Regardless of the low number of views and likes, please know that this is greatly appreciated, and microphone testing between both headsets is extremely rare! Thank you very much, and please keep it up!

the quality of your production is astounding! It seems so cliché to say this but I can't believe you less than 1000 subscribers, you deserve many, MANY more. I bought a pair of DT 770 pros about a month ago, and I have a love/hate relationship with them. I do like the sound but sometimes I think the treble can be a little grating on the ears. I had no idea that the 700 pro x even existed, so I just watched your video comparing the two headphones. Listening to the sound comparison (on my 770 pros) between the 700 pro x and the 770 pros was shocking. The 770 pros sound so like compressed or low fidelity in the trebles compared to the 700 pro x (it almost sounds like you edited the audio to sound worse for the 770 pros lol I know you didn't but still the sound is very different). I don't know how to describe what I'm hearing but that's essentially how I feel while I wear them making music, somehow the hi hats and cymbals always seem too loud and piercing in my perception. I also hate the non detachable cable of the 770 pros, I think that's honestly ridiculous in the year 2023 (I know the headphones are from 30 years ago but still they should just make the cable removable). Anyway, this video is great too, I closed my eyes during the comparison between the 700 pro x and the 900 pro x and honestly I couldn't tell the difference for the most part except with some of the guitar sounds and the vocal orchestral music. All this to say that you have made my choice clear, I'm definitely going to be returning the 770 pros and buying the 700 pro x, so I can use them outside and while singing on my music production! Again, great video, liked and subscribed! Cheers!

I've had a dilemma for my purachase of either one of these. Never found a review as detailed and accurately executed as yours, thank a ton for the lovely efforts. I hope to see more of these as I love watching this!

Thankyou for this video! I really wish more people did this instead of talking for minutes about it. I prefer to hear it myself and then judge for myself than listening to someone telling me what their experience is

Totally agree and on point. No mumbo-jumbo talk and let the headphones speak for themselves so we can make a decision. I just bought 900 Pro X based on this review. Thanks a lot man! Keep up the good work!!

this is the best video on whole internet about this topic tysm it helped me choose my first professional studio headphones

An amazing and very helpful review, thank you!

Thanks for such a detailed review!

I LOVE this review! Amazing how you were able to let us hear the difference between closed and open headphones. This is the first video where I couldn't wait to press the LIKE button; I'm serious. Please make more excellent videos like this.

Hands down the best headphone reviews that I have come across to date!

I appreciate the thorough testing, just gained yourself a subscriber

I agree, excellent reviews from this guy! 💯

I got Beyerdynamic DT 900 Pro X for indoor use and Austrian Audio Hi-X15 for outdoor use. I’m happy with my choices 😊

i stumbled into your video as i just ordered my first open back headphones and i gotta say im shocked with how great the quality and depth your review was without taking too much time. highly recommended

Very impressed! Subscribed :)

Great video and best comparison.

Am, i ve never seen such comparison. you are doing a great job here. Thats what we need .

I just would like to thank you very much. You helped me after 20 hours of choosing. The microphone test is really the selling factor. THANK YOU! Subbed liked commented.

i liked this alot, thanks

I wanted open headphones and was wondering whether to buy the DT900Pro X in my cart. I saw your wonderful video and decided to purchase it. ありがとう🥰

great review! one of the best i have seen and really enjoy the recorded sound comparison.

very professional review.

Incredible review that is just what I'm after. Would you say the sound leak on the 900 x's would be too much for someone on their PC in the same room?

great video ❤

100% i go with 900. Guitar sounds so much better. 700 sounded kinda boosted

I rarely comment on KZfaq videos but I had to: One of the best reviews out there of the audio equipment... Thank you for your work 🙂

YOUR VIDEOS ARE AMAZING AND THE EFFORT AND DIFFERENT METHODS YOU USE TO TEST THESE PRODUCTS IS INSANE. INSTANT SUB KEEP IT UP, THE EFFORT YOU PUT IN DOESNT GO UNNOTICED ! ! ! !! question to anyone if you dont mind Im struggling between which headphones to buy, the 700pro x or the 900 pro x or anything around the price range theyre in (aus$) . I currently have a pair of m50x's that i have battered into submission. Theyre so chewed up they might as well be open back headphones at this point. I produce music (genres like rap, house, grime and whatever else) and I also game and watch videos and movies ALOT. My headphones are on my head for most of the day. I really dont know which ones to go with, honestly really torn, I just wanna make the decision and not have to worry about it for another few years. Hope someone can help ! ! !

Great video! If you have a DT990 pro; would you mind making a similar comparison vs the DT900 pro X? I’m curious about the difference in sound quality

Nice vid

I have the 600 ohm version of the 880 & 990 edition headphone. As you can see I'm a Beyer fan would like to complete the set by purchasing 770 250ohm. However, i dont do studio work and your video is very enticing for me to get the 700 pro x more as the sound quality is much better than the older brother. What would you choose if you are in my position? Great video and subbed. Keep up the good work. Thank you.

Enjoyed the review. Thank you for touching on the gaming aspect. I'm currently deciding between the two headphones for console gaming and music listening.

Just to give it a little spice... Considering both correct in terms of audio characteristics, the only content that open headphones can correctly reproduce is when there is a direct connection between the source and the recording device. Otherwise, like a microphone recording or post production to recreate an environment, open headphones reproduce an environment within a second environment, a total abomination that our ear has most likely become accustomed to digesting. Ironically, closed headphones, coupled with a subwoofer, are even more correct than a pair of speakers in a non-anechoic environment.

Thanks for the very helpful video! I see you using Zen Dac with MOTU M4. I only use DT 700 pro X to listen to music, do I need MOTU M4? Or just Zen Dac is enough. My music source is Macbook pro 2019. Thank you for listening.

First indonesian subscriber here😂

the bass on the second track you compared was much more defined on the 900 open back?!?!? normally that's a area they lack

Please upload the uncompressed audio recording you used in the comparison and provide the link in the description so we can download it and listen without KZfaq compression. Thank you.

Semi unrelated question. What’s the model/brand of the pop filter on the Rode mic? 2:40

I remain loyal to my DT880 Edition (listen to a lot of classical music and film music). The clamping force of the DT 900 pro x seems a bit too high to me at 5.3 vs 2.8 (DT 880). ​

Hab mir dieses Video auf verschiedenen Systemen angehört. Für meinen Geschmack klingen die 900er einfach "richtig".

I just bought the 770s yeasterday just because I don't have a treated room with a pair of presonus Eris 8..now every one on the internet are saying the 990s are better for production and mixing.. And the closed backed are better for recordings.. Lol. I typically try to make instrumental music in the box which have nothing to do with mic recordings.. What a bummer.

what would be a better option for competitive gaming then? ive been searching for one at the price range of the dt 900 x pro for primarily an fps edge

Yeah, the difference is subtle when hearing from youtube, through my cheap headphones. From what I can tell, closed back sounded echoey... while open back is well, open.

I can honestly say, i absolutely hate the sound of open backed headphones, to me they sound very harsh in the midrange, to the point i cant use them without a 20 band EQ, its like listening to a speaker that has no cabinet, you need a headphone that translates well to ported speakers, and im afraid open backed types dont to my ears

Really enjoying your videos, thank you so much! Gonna be buying the DT 700 Pro X today and using it for my own content creation journey. Keep it up mate! 🫡

aren't those semi-open backs not open backs?
