- We just got a new batch of DT770s and Beyerdynamic have updated the design.
In this video I will go through the changes and improvements and show you how to spot the latest version of the Beyerdynamic DT770 32ohm
If you fancy checking out what we have for sale, take a look at the link below:

There's a man who knows how to make a good cup of tea!
MMMMMM refreshing
Love that you're rocking the MS Wheel Mouse Optical. Man of culture.
Lol ... It is a classic ;)
Most likely all just a cost saving measure. I noticed quite a while ago now that the edt990 and edt770 pads are now also slightly different and are all now made in the Republic of China instead of the European Union. It says on the label.
Nice to know there are further stealth revs going on now besides just the pads
you're everywhere lol
Metal571 we need you back bro!!!
there are no plans to return at this time
Could we tempt you back if we sent you something super experimental from our black ops department? ;)
So you made an offhand comment about a nice feature on the Custom Ones, and a few months later, they add it to the 770s. Nicely done.
The timings are about right ;) But I have mentioned it a few times to them over the past few years
keep up the good work, still rocking you're modded dt 1990 pro with passive filter. Haven't missed a heart beat.
Ah... Those are pretty rare - I think we probably only made 15 or 20 pairs with the passive filter before we stopped doing it due the the cost/time involved
No detachable cable? This would have been a real update
Ironically... The fact that we get 3 or 4 of these sent in a month to be modified to take a detachable cable pays for these videos to be made ;)
@Custom Cans btw, you can use dt1990 / 1770 fixing ring on dt770, I have it on mine for few years now, mainly because of that easier pad exchange, and that ring gives few more mm depth if you need it. But mine are way more modified from stock, v1 of your damping kit, leather headband strap for more comfort (my idea), some felt inside and on driver side to tune the highs a bit, removed inner ring with felt to make them sound more spacious and bigger pads to have more room for ear. I don't know how they sounded stock, but to me they sound bit more relaxed, more spacious, details are still there (I think 🤔), and that leather strap makes them more comfy because of more contact point on the top of the head.
If you want I can provide details to what I have done to them, so that you can test them to see how they measure with those mods.
Yes, that is a really good idea.
Here are the details.
In the zip file are pictures of my headphones and stuff i used to modified then - file.lu/d/tjN
Inside I have v1 kit for damping, and 2 mm thick foam disk. Since I have removed stock plastic ring with felt, driver has more "air" and space which made bass little bit more boomy (I think), so I added that foam disk to reduce amount of free space inside the cup, and also foam helps with sound bouncing back from the cup into the ear, absorbing it in some way. Bass ports on the cups have not been altered in any way.
On the driver side with stock foam disk, I have added shelf liner and felt disk (I used cloth for cleaning glasses). Shelf liner should act as wave guide and absorb some frequencies, cloth is also there to smooth out the sound a bit.
For the pads, I use brainwavz xl hybrid pads, which have added felt in the back to make them angled.
Headband is some knockoff china cover from ebay with removed foam (to make more room for leather strap), and leather strap which is secured to stock plastic adjusters. More details for strap mod can be found here - www.head-fi.org/threads/beyerdynamic-dt-series-comfort-strap-mod-and-dt770-sound-mod.879265/
That's all I have done to them, my main focus now it's to find some 3d model for snap-on or 2 piece ring, which will allow more secure and better fitment of 110mm size pads, because now my xl pads are on them with some double sided tape (since the cups are made for 100 mm pads). Idea for ring is something like this - www.thingiverse.com/thing:4757208 - but with bigger diameter for 110mm pads and less depth.
Hope that this will help :)
@@ZoneXV Nice 🙂
Yeah, rings fit on them perfectly, don't know why they don't include them on latest revision of dt770, because the clips are same size and on same positions, as on the original ring.
And that extra lip for pad makes them look nicer when the pad is on.
Not sure if its the same, but my 2021 dt1990's have that little notch for changing the pads. Or at least thats what I use it for lol. Works great.
Ah yes you are right, I forgot about the 1990 and 1770
I'm changing pads often on dt990 so I wanted to make the same notch on them too but I couldn't find my drill so I used old soldering iron lol.
good idea
i have an early run 1990 unit from late 2016, and it also has the pad notch 👌
The DT 770's are the first and only audiophile headphones I've bought so far so very cool to see what they look like on the inside. Can't wait to get my next pair of headphones. If you would be kind enough to suggest what to get as my next pair of headphones, I would very much appreciate it. I'm thinking the Sundara's or HD600's but I'm not 100% sure yet.
They are both really good. I am sure you would be happy with either of them
@@CustomCans Ok, great. Thanks for the reply.
Would be interesting to see whether or not they improved the strength of the little plastic bits that are on the sliding mechanism of the headband, as that's been the biggest problem with their headphones IMO when it comes to parts breaking.
I dropped my 1990s once onto carpet and a tiny chunk of that piece snapped right off. It hasn't affected the sliding mechanism at all, but now that's a point of failure to look out for.
I think that part is still the same but we very rarely see one break.. We may just be lucky thouth
Yep, mine are falling constantly from my table and nothing happened apart from maybe some scratches and also this one bit broken, but the mechanism works :) They sell it as a spare part, but I can't bring myself to buying it.
I also bought a new one a while back, but there is one thing that really bums me out, and that is the cord is so stiff. I spend a lot of time in bed due to my serious car accident, and the cord won't slide. I think the cord will break quickly on either side because you are constantly pulling on the cord. I can install a new cable, but then I get the same one.
2:57 is that the same fixing ring used on the DT700/900 Pro X?
If so, is it possible to use the Pro X ear pads with the new DT770?
Yes - they are interchangeable I think but the pro X pads are a smaller diameter so they will look a bit odd
Maybe the Pads are now more "durable"
, don't get me wrong but the old velour Pads needed to be replaced every year if you want no change in the sound signature. Still great Headphones...
I think the standard 80 and 250 ohm versions will still come with velour pads
@@CustomCans Oh right I see it on the Beyer Website. Why does Beyer make diffret configurations for different Impedances? 🤔 Like the D990 that only comes in Black and with a 4 meter straight cabel if you want it in 80 Ohms...
I have the 32 ohm since recently and i like them i dont like the leather stock pads
So i changed it to verlour
i just bought dt 770 pro and new design make me think it fake product. till i watch your VDO (my english is not well sorry.)
I am glad the video was helpful ;)
always a pleasure, thank you Sir.🤩
one question pls. do you know how to disassembly the earcups of the DT880/990 "Edition"?
They have somehow a cup in the cup with a single 20mm hole in the mid, so the EDITIONs are by far not that open like the PRO Versions and the Soundstage of the Editions is much worse than the Pro Versions.
It has been a while since I pulled some apart but I don't think you can make them any more open without major surgery
@@CustomCans guess you´re right, it´s a mission impossible, even for drilling some holes in the inner cup 🤪 thank you, Sir
Beyerdynamic listened 🙂
Maybe
What about new 770 s frequency response??
Are those same to previous one??
As I mentioned, we don't have the older version to check them against but they should be the same - the driver has not changed and the inside of the earcup is almost the same
@@CustomCans thanks for the reply. Fr may change because of the pads I think. Or can be same as older one. Fr changes a lot with small hardware changes. Curious to see new one👀
@@towsifshahriarshovo different plastic will also change things
@@tommihommi1 yes
Really wish they would reintroduce 600 ohm version of the 770.
You can still get the 600ohm drivers - I think we made a pair from parts for someone a while ago
so does that make the dt770 pro limited editions old vs these ? also are these the dt770 pro m ? I look on the site and I don't see where they are a 2022 model ?
As they have been out for a year or so now I suspect nearly all the ones in shops will be the new version.
how can you tell if new version ? the 80 and 250 don't appear to have a hole the cord goes into on each side like the 32 one@@CustomCans
twist on earpads, must have got that idea from AKG
is it me or are the new ones also crisper?
Unfortunately I did not test them side by side and all the ones we have now are the new ones. That said... the sound often changes over time as the pads break down. So new pairs with new pads always sound a bit different to a well loved pair
Just purchased these in 32ohm, does the V2 kit work well with them?
We don't normally keep the 32ohm in stock so I have not tested them but it should have the same effect on them
@@CustomCans I've just ordered the V2 Kit, see how it goes
Hello.
How/where can one find the production date of the headphones?
Thanks in advance 🙂
I don't know :) - the box normally has a label on it but if you don't have the box, the newer drivers have a date printed on them but the drivers could have been made long before the headphones. You can get some clues as they change things like the font and logo, the way the headband cable goes into the earcup , how the cable attaches and things between generations. Here in the office, we sometimes judge send ins by how brown and smelly the pads are :)
it feels so weird seeing a beyer headphone without gray velour pads
There is a difference in sound old vs new versions ?
Not that I noticed. They are using the same driver as the previous version
@@CustomCans I don't know if it's the impedance or version or both, but my new 32 ohms sound noticeably better than my old 80 ohms. Like a veil was removed.
@@lumpichu really? what about the soundstage? most reviews say the opposite but im curious
Watching this to pick apart German engineering! 😜🤣
I do love the way they come apart for repair so nicely
Yep looks a little like they've taken a leaf out of sennheisers copy book. Just got a pair of these as never owned any beyer so looking forward to testing them out.
Not a fan of those old fart retro aesthetics.
I think they are more of a "functional" design. They are like the AK47 of headphones. They are not pretty but you know someone means business when they have them round their neck ;)
@@CustomCans i think theyre gorgeous, i love them
