There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The 700 has a fairly neutral tonality overall, which is to be expected for a set geared towards music production. But that doesn't mean they're lean or boring sounding. You get excellent bass extension and slam, and an overall punchy and nimble bass presentation. Highs have good air and extension but don't get sibilant. Mids have good presence, though I'd prefer them to be a touch more forward.
Soundstage is very good, with good side to side and dimensional placement of the instruments. Separation is good as well, allowing good identification of different conflicting or overlapping frequencies. Overall resolution is good, but not great. I didn't feel I was missing anything, but at the same time other headphones better resolve and isolate sounds for inspection. But the differences aren't major, IMO.
Being low impedance, the 700 is very easy to power. They scale a bit with good amplification, but it's not absolutely necessary, unless you're chasing maximum sound quality. And they're as easy to wear as they are to power. These are some comfy headphones! The velour material is even softer and more supple than the older DT 770/880/990 pads, which were mighty comfy on their own. Clamping force is a bit high out of the box but dissipates after a week or so of use. If you're really bothered by it, when you get them, leave them clamped onto a shoebox or something slightly wider than your head at night for a week or two. That will help break in the metal headband tension, and ease the clamp force.
Overall the 700 is a very well balanced sounding headphone in an easy to drive and wear package. Nothing stands out as offensive, which is excellent. Headphones usually have something sonically that stands out negatively, but these don't. They're not perfect, and might not match your preferences well, but I don't perceive any major frequency response flaws. In comparison the older DT 770 is brighter, more sibilant, with much more recessed mids, and boomy bass. All notable flaws, IMO.
There's strong competition in this market segment though. The two headphones that stand out to me are the Austrian Audio Hi-X15 and the AKG K371. Both are significantly cheaper and rival the 700 in sound quality. Let's compare, shall we?
Austrian Audio Hi-X15 - Tuning is a bit brighter, with a leaner presentation overall. The X15 is slightly more resolving, with a more dynamic response. Bass has more potential extension, and seems more responsive under duress. Treble and upper mids can be a bit intense at times though, especially right out of the box. The X15 needs a good 20-50 hours of run time to settle down. The driver is a high excursion type with a stiff suspension that IMO needs some hours to hit it's optimum operational range. I thought they were pretty bad the first 5 hours or so, but now they're a staple in my lineup. In comparison, the DT 700 Pro X is a bit darker, or less lean, if you will. Upper range extension and presence is more tame. Bass is slower and less nimble and responsive. Overall resolution is a bit less. The 700 sounds SLIGHTLY hazy in comparison. Also the X15 has more dynamic range, it can reproduce more nuance between high and low volume elements within the playback. But these differences are not huge, mind you. Do I feel I'm missing anything with the 700? Nope. I do prefer the slightly more punchy, though leaner X15 bass response, but the 700 doesn't disappoint.
AKG K371 - Tuning is very similar, with a nice even frequency response top to bottom. Like the 700, nothing about the 371's response stands out as problematic. So why spend more for the 700 over the 371? The 700 is built much better, is more comfy, and is clearer and more resolving than the 371. Bass on the 371 can get a touch boomy and indistinct compared to the 700. Also the overall sound from the 371 is slightly hazier than the 700. I think of the 371 as the poor man's 700. Very very similar overall, with the 700 just being a bit better.
If you twisted my arm and made me pick only one of the three, I'd take the 700 as it's the most even sounding of the bunch. I like the X15's higher dynamic range, it's quite impressive in such an affordable headphone, but the lean tuning is a bit annoying to me.
Beyerdynamic hit it out of the park with the DT 700 Pro X. As a longtime fan it's good to see such a great legacy company as Beyer revamp their sound to more modern standards, and do it so well. For fans like myself who soured on the older lineup with their fatiguing brightness, the 700 is a breath of fresh air.
So, I listened to a bunch, listed below in my order of preference, with my favorites at the top.
These are all closed back, with prices ranging from $120 up to $300. Music source was a laptop connected to a DAC/Headphone Amp via USB. (I also tested various DAC/Amps but the headphones make the larger difference.)
I've kept notes on my impressions brief and included comparisons amongst the headphones in this list. If you want flowery vocabulary I'm sure in depth reviews are available out there on the web.

beyerdynamic DT 700 PRO X Closed-Back Studio Headphones
Very good. Get you involved with the music. Brighter than A990Z but not painfully so. I don't think these would be fatiguing. Bass solid but not overemphasized.
Very comfortable. Feel secure.
Audio-Technica ATH-A990Z Art Monitor Closed-Back Dynamic Headphones
Good. Balanced. Not overly bright. Good space. Etherial. One could definitely listen to these all day without fatigue.
Fit: Feel loose. Odd headband. Cans are LARGE.
Audio-Technica ATH-M50X Professional Studio Monitor Headphones
Good. Bright. Maybe too bright. Yet not as clear as the 700 PRO X.
Comfort is ok. There's a bit more pressure around the ears than some, and the cans are on the smaller side so positioning them is key.
beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro 32 ohm Limited Edition Professional Studio Headphones
Good. Less efficient than the 700 PRO X, which doesn't make a ton of sense since these claim to have lower impedance. Significanty brighter than the 700 PRO X. They do lack bass - noticible even with male vocals.
Very comfortable.
Audio-Technica ATH-M70X Closed-Back Dynamic Professional Studio Monitor Headphones
Bright, but lack bass. It's just not there. Scarcely more bass than the MSR7b8K's. I'd say these are "vocal forward" - lots of detail in the vocal range.
I prefer the M50X. Slightly more base. Slightly warmer.
Comfort is good.
Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7bBK Over-Ear High-Resolution Headphones
OK. Bright. Lack body (weak bass).
Light. Short cord.
Did not come with a 1/4" plug or an adapter. Clearly intended for a pocket source.
Audio-Technica ATH-A550Z Art Monitor Closed-Back Dynamic Headphones
Bad. Lack midrange. Too much trebble.
If you like this style I strongly recommend that you save a bit and get the ATH-A990Z.
Comfortable, but feel a bit loose. Huge cans.
SENNHEISER HD 569 Closed Back Headphone
Bad. Disappointing. Total lack of detail. Cymbals present in other headphones are scarcely noticed.
Large-ish, tall cans.
Top reviews from other countries
The next thing I noticed was the comfort. The pads are super soft and plush, but the clamping force of the headphones is surprisingly strong. I could see some people thinking it's too strong, but I personally think it's fine. It's either loosened up or if just gotten used to it, but it's still noticeable. It doesn't really bother me personally though but it's worth mentioning.
When I first started listening to these I was immediately blown away by them. I also have the Philips SHP9500 and the Tribit Xfree Tune. Both of those are decent headphones but these were an obvious improvement over both in my opinion. I'm not great at describing sound, but these seem to be fairly neutral with a slight emphasis on the low end. That's not to say they lack bass though. If the song itself has some bass to it, that will absolutely come through on these, just in a very clean way that doesn't detract from the mids or the highs. So with that being said if all you want is bass and as much of it as possible these probably aren't for you. To me they've sounded great for every genre I've tried, but I generally listen to a wide range of rock music. They're also good for movies although I haven't used them much for that. I also really like them for gaming. Being detailed and somewhat neutral I find it easy to pinpoint where things like footsteps are coming from. They also can be powered from anything. I've used a usb dongle dac, a vintage stereo, and an Xbox One controller and it sounded great through all of them. I love the sound of theses, they're absolutely just going to replace my existing headphones for literally every use case.
If I had any complaints, it would be the clamping force even though as I said above it doesn't really bother me. I'd still prefer if it wasn't as tight and I could see it being a problem for some people. I may update this review later on if they loosen up some more.
My only other complaint is with the cables. The connector is kind of long sticking out if the headphones, it's enough that it can touch my shoulder sometimes. It's especially noticeable if I'm wearing a hoodie.
Overall I really like these headphones. They're maybe a bit too expensive, but I think they sound fantastic and by the looks of them they should outlive me so I'm very happy with I got here.
1 Month Update:
Just an update after using these for a month. I still really love them. The clamping force is still tight, although it's either loosened up or I'm just a lot more used to them now, but I find them to be more comfortable now.
6 Month Update:
Yeah I still absolutely love these headphones. They're even more comfortable now, the clamping force has gone way down. I would pull them apart a bit to loosen them up, and from that and just wearing them a lot it's not nearly as tight, although still has some clamping force to it.. it's just right now in my opinion.
1. Material, Verarbeitung, Haptik und Optik
Auch hier wieder Geschmacksache, aber mir gefällt der DT 700 Pro X auch nach über einem Jahr ausgesprochen gut. Nichts klappert, alles sitzt da, wo es soll. Sehr schlichtes, unaufdringliches Design welches auf Werbebildern deutlich „Preiswerter“ rüberkommt, als in der Realität. Weiterer Pluspunkt, Ersatzteile sind über den Hersteller zu bekommen und können größtenteils selbst ausgetauscht werden.
2. Tragekomfort
Ich bin sowohl offene, respektive den DT 900 Pro X und Sennheiser HD 660S2, als auch mehrere geschlossene Kopfhörer gewohnt. Auch Noise Cancelling ist für mich kein Fremdwort. Für mich ist der DT 700 das beste aus beiden Welten. Nicht so offen und luftig wie beispielsweise der DT 900, aber auch nicht so entkoppelt wie Kopfhörer mit Noise Cancelling. Ich hatte nie das Problem, dass der Tragekomfort nach Stunden nachlässt, nur das relativ hohe Gewicht von 350 g fiel mir nach 5-6 Stunden Arbeit negativ auf, bzw. Bedarf einer gewissen Umgewöhnung. Die Mini-XLR Buchse auf 6,35mm/ 3,5mm Klinkenstecker ist gut verarbeiten und rastet sauber ein. Meinen Vorrednern muss ich in dem Punkt zustimmen, dass sich Geräusche des Kabels durchaus auf den Kopfhörer übertragen. Mich hat es allerdings nicht sonderlich gestört.
3. Klang, Technik
Was soll ich sagen, der DT 700 ist in seinem Preissegment Referenzgerät, Punkt! Ich bin sehr audiophil und hatte daher eine recht hohe Erwartungshaltung vor dem Kauf.
Was man vor dem ersten hören unbedingt wissen muss, wir sprechen hier von einem Kopfhörer der fürs Recording und Monitoring konzipiert wurde. Wer über die Anschaffung nachdenkt, um sich auf einschlägigen Streaming Portalen 128 kbit/s MP3 Dateien reinzuziehen, ist hier falsch. Die Klangkulisse verzeiht nichts, rein gar nichts.
Und genau das macht den DT 700 für mich zum perfekten Kopfhörer. Die Bühne ist Kristallklar, ausgewogen und breit aufgestellt. Man vergisst manchmal, dass man es mit Kopfhörern im Consumerbreich zu tun hat. Tiefen werden „knackig" und auf den Punkt wiedergegeben, ohne zu viel Raum einzunehmen. Sprich Bässe sind präsent, aber niemals matschig oder dröhnen, egal bei welcher Lautstärke. Höhen werden ebenso präzise wiedergegeben, klar und nicht zu punktuell. Insbesondere bei Streichern und Chören kann der DT 700 zeigen was er kann. Der Mittenbreich könnte für mich etwas ausgeprägter sein, dieser tritt im Verhältnis zu den sehr guten Tiefen und Höhen etwas in den Hintergrund. Keinesfalls störend, ist am Ende des Tages dem eigentlichen Verwendungszweck geschuldet und schmälert das Hörerlebnis keineswegs. Aufgrund der geringen Impedanz von 48Ohm lässt sich der Kopfhörer problemlos auch an Niederohmigen Quellen wie Notebooks oder Mobiltelefonen betreiben. Ein für mich unschlagbarer Vorteil. Allerdings sei auch hier gesagt, wer das ganze Potential nutzen möchte, sollte nichtsdestotrotz über einen Hochwertigen Kopfhörerverstärkter oder eine Soundkarte nachdenken. Denn ein Kopfhörer lebt nicht von der Lautstärke, sondern der Signalqualität. Wer die DT 700 mal in Verbindung mit einer SACD oder gut gemastereten Platte gehört hat, dem wird's plump gesagt, die Schuhe ausziehen. Alles in allem großartiger Klang, man hört Stücke nicht, man erlebt sie und das genau so wie der Künstler es sich gedacht hat.
4. Fazit
Nach einem Jahr ist jeder Tag immer noch Musikgenuss pur. Wer einen Kopfhörer für jeden Tag für Bus und Bahn sucht, ist mit anderen Modellen besser bedient. Wer hingegen einen neutral klingenden, sehr ausgewogenen Kopfhörer für den gehobenen Anspruch sucht, ist sehr gut bedient. Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis für mich absolut unschlagbar. Der Kaufpreis ist beim ersten Höhen vergessen, versprochen!
The sound signature is very good, the lows mids and highs are pretty much balanced. And most importantly the highs which Beyerdynamic lacked considerably in their majority of models, have been properly elevated in pro X. Though they sound a little bit like metallic resonating highs, but that is very negligible and hard to notice. The bass is considerable and has enough depth to feel the rumble below 40 hz. The Frequency range in Pro X is 5 hz to 40 khz which is not useless, but it does help in not being restrictive and gives the sound an extra uncompromising edge. And plenty of room for all the frequencies to work around.
The material quality is rugged, design and wearability is very very comfortable, the ear pads are extremely soft and does not cause ear fatigue even for hours of wearing. The detachable cable is the best and USP for me. Best for Music production as well. Overall the top notch Headphones from Beyerdynamic if available in stock....
For India - The sad part is that the 'Beyerdynamic India' is not co-operative and has no much to offer in terms of replacement parts. Also they deny having parts for the older models for eg. i contacted them for the headband for Custom one pro. Which has the similar headband to DT 700 pro. But they did't reply with positive answer, saying that the model is obsolete. But that was none of their concern, as i was just asking them to send the DT 700 pro headband, rest is my own responsibility. But they didn't respond ever after that. I did't ask them "whether the Custom one pro are obsolete or not". I asked them for the headband for DT 700 pro thats it, but they decided to give oversmart reply. Anyway. You'll have to rely on aftermarket parts.

The sound signature is very good, the lows mids and highs are pretty much balanced. And most importantly the highs which Beyerdynamic lacked considerably in their majority of models, have been properly elevated in pro X. Though they sound a little bit like metallic resonating highs, but that is very negligible and hard to notice. The bass is considerable and has enough depth to feel the rumble below 40 hz. The Frequency range in Pro X is 5 hz to 40 khz which is not useless, but it does help in not being restrictive and gives the sound an extra uncompromising edge. And plenty of room for all the frequencies to work around.
The material quality is rugged, design and wearability is very very comfortable, the ear pads are extremely soft and does not cause ear fatigue even for hours of wearing. The detachable cable is the best and USP for me. Best for Music production as well. Overall the top notch Headphones from Beyerdynamic if available in stock....

Pour remplacer mon bon vieux AKG K240s que j'en avait marre de souder / ressouder. Profité de ce changement également pour partir sur quelque chose de portable et de fermé pour les voyages. La taille ne me dérange pas. Impression de qualité que ce soit le casque même ou les deux câbles fournis bien épais.
Impression à chaud - casque précis, image stéréo assez intimiste, solide dans les basses, les mediums juste ce que j'aime, aigus sont là aussi (j'avais peur par rapport aux commentaires). Tout pouvant se régler avec un égaliseur type Peace. Mais le son ne m'a pas surpris par rapport au AKG, aussi bon et j'aime le son d'AKG.
Confortable, serre pas mal la tête mais question d'habitude je pense, coussinets très doux agréables.
Pas déçu de l'avoir acheté, je vais faire les essais de guitare/enregistrement pour voir plus en profondeur ce qu'il vaut. Mais juste pour écouter le son c'est très sympa!
Je l'utilise avec une carte son Volt 1, en ce qui concerne l'iPhone, il a assez de sortie avec ses 48ohms d'impédance.
