Beyerdynamic DT 1770 Pro MKII

The DT 1770 Pro MKII is Beyerdynamic's pro-tier closed-back studio headphone, low at 30 ohms so it drives easily, and pitched for tracking, mixing and mastering alike. The closed design makes it especially useful for recording where isolation and minimal bleed matter. It reads as a capable, versatile studio can rather than a clear category leader in this batch.
