Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro 32 Ohm Limited Edition Studio Headphones - Professional Over-Ear Monitoring Headset for Music Production, Gaming & Podcasting (Renewed, Black) - Perfect for Home Studios, DJing & Audio Editing

I got these headphones mostly for music production. I'm not a professional or anything, but it's a serious hobby of mine and I wanted headphones that would help me mix clearly and also just sound nice when listening in my free time. These are very clear-sounding headphones. I can hear pretty much every detail in songs, many I never noticed before, sometimes even little pops and buzzes in the recording itself that I did not know were there. They're also very flat-sounding, meaning they're not bass-boosted or treble-boosted or anything. It doesn't sound particularly bright, warm, heavy, it's just very neutral. This is good for making music but it might not be what you're looking for. It just depends on your preference. The headphones get loud enough on my computer and phone, but it doesn't seem like you can play them super super loud without an amp or interface of some kind. Soundstage is good as far as I can tell, the music doesn't feel tight or contained, all the different sounds feel like they're coming from a different place. Very easy to identify the different components of the mix. Honestly these headphones seem perfect if you're mixing or recording music and can't/don't want to spend like +$500. It's so so so clear. Everything is right in front of you if you know what I mean lol. I feel like the only potential gripe you might have with the sound is that you wanted a more bass-heavy sound or one with more warmth. But you can change the EQ on these with a computer program I believe? Also: these are not actively noise-cancelling, although the cups do seem pretty good at keeping out external noise on their own. Not as much as ANC of course but I don't personally care. One plus is that you don't have to charge these headphones for them to sound right.As far as the physical headphones go, they're very comfortable to me and fit snugly but not too tight. The earpads are very very soft. They're closed-back so you can listen to them anywhere. I haven't had an opportunity to test how much they leak. Overall, these seem like really great quality for $150 especially if you're an "audiophile" (whatever that may mean), music producer, or just a perfectionist when it comes to sound clarity and quality. I actually returned a pair of Sony WH1000XM2s to get these and ended up saving $120 for what I see as pretty much equal sound quality. So overall very satisfied!
