The DT 880 combines the strengths of open headphones with those of closed studio headphones. Special housing shapes and improved system equalization make this remake of the old studio classic DT 880 an ideal listener with very good analytical properties, especially in the classical range. The complete sound spectrum is fully fanned out. From the deepest bass, which is clearly placed and not obtrusive at all, to the airiest highs. The neutral, balanced mids are analytical and assertive without dominating. The robust spring steel headband provides a secure fit. Soft head and ear cushions and the one-sided cable entry ensure high wearing comfort.
