Beyerdynamic launches the DT 770 Pro for portable devices in India

Beyerdynamic, a German audio equipment maker, has launched their DT 770 Pro reference headphones in India. The DT 770 Pro is a 32ohms version and is the latest addition to their series that are specially designed to function with mobile devices.

The Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro is for experienced sound professionals, used in countless studios throughout the world. Beyerdynamic, the audio specialist from Heilbronn in Germany has launched a special edition of the DT 770 Pro with an impedance of 32 ohms for optimal use with smartphones, mobile players and notebooks.

The studio legend goes mobile

The roots of the legendary Beyerdynamic DT 770/880/990 line go back to 1981. Their outstanding sound and durable design laid the foundation for these headphones’ unprecedented studio and stage career. The 32-ohm version of the DT 770 Pro is the latest addition to the series and has been optimised for use with portable devices.

The new technologies of the mobile computing revolution – tablet computers, smartphones, etc. – enable creative professionals to turn their inspirations into results, anytime and anywhere, without having to get to the studio first. The output of mobile devices is usually too weak to handle standard studio impedances of 80 to 250 ohms. The result is a strained sound that isn’t loud enough because high impedances are too much for the mini-amplifiers. The new 32-ohm version of the DT 770 Pro is the solution for all artists who don’t want to go without their favourite equipment for checking and mixing audio while on-the-go. This is because the new model offers exactly the same sound quality as its studio-optimized counterparts and maintains large volume reserves even when working with weaker output levels. Combining a balanced sound with long-term wearing comfort, thanks to the smooth soft skin ear cushions, the new DT 770 Pros now allow you to take your favourite studio sound with you, wherever you are in the world.

Proven and reliable

As most audio professionals know, DT 770 Pro headphones are virtually indestructible. Even if you are unfortunate enough to experience a breakage, nearly every part can be replaced individually, thanks to intelligent design and implementation. The new DT 770 Pro maintains this clever design ethos by offering a shorter connection cable (1.6 m) to keep things convenient when using it with portable devices.
