These are hands down the best entry-level audiophile headphones we’ve tested so far. They have a more premium look than their price tag might suggest and a sturdy, durable construction that makes them feel like they would outlast more expensive audiophile headphones. They sound great and reproduce instruments and vocals with precision. They sound a bit sharp on brighter tracks, but they actually pack a lot of bass for an open-back model. They might not be as immersive as some of the more expensive recommendations, but they do have a bit more vibe than most closed-back headphones. The construction of the DT 990 PRO features plastic for the ear cups, the headband is made of metal and is covered with a soft cushion. The plastic used is of high quality and built to last. The helmet has a smooth finish and looks like a top notch product. The ear cups are covered with velor and are very smooth and soft which adds a premium look to the headset. The ear pads and vinyl headband cushion are both replaceable. The headband and headphones are connected by a steel yoke which also allows the headphones to move. The headband has a tight clamp first, but since the headband is made of a steel spring, you can bend it slightly to loosen the grip. The fit and comfort of the DT 990 PRO is excellent. The velor covered and thick padded ear cushions are fantastic. If you spend long sessions on your PC listening, recording, or doing nothing, the DT 990 is a headset you can try. Compared to the DT 770, the 990 Pro is more comfortable, but it is noticeable after long sessions of use. This could be due to the lighter, more breathable 990. Compared to the HD 600, which weighs 10 grams lighter, but less breathable pads, we found the HD 600 to be more comfortable, but that was huge as the HD600’s ear cups have more room for the ears and headband support. is excellent. Among the three headphones from the most comfortable to the least comfortable, it would be the HD 600, the DT 990 and finally the DT 770. In terms of build quality, the DT 990 Pro carries the German build quality that Beyerdynamic is famous for. Other than the non-detachable cable, there isn’t much to complain about. The combination of metal and plastic construction balances weight while keeping the whole construction sturdy. In terms of sound quality, the DT 990 Pro leans towards a V-shape. This means the lows and highs are more pronounced. This is an open back helmet, so there is more detail than its competition. The DT 990 Pro shares many qualities with the top-of-the-range DT 1990 Pro. While not as detailed as the DT 1990 Pro, it is not as sharp and tiring as the top-of-the-line model. It’s a headset that has a sufficiently precise but still pleasant sound signature. SENNHEISER HD 600 OPEN DYNAMIC HI-FI PROFESSIONAL STEREO HEADPHONES Sale Sennheiser HD 600 - Audiophile Hi-Res Open Back Dynamic Headphone * Lightweight aluminum voice coils ensure excellent transient response * Neodymium ferrous magnets maintain optimum sensitivity and excellent dynamics * Sophisticated design, elegantly finished in black and gray Check Price on Amazon If you are looking for inexpensive audiophile headphones, the Sennheiser HD 600 is the best budget Low Impedance Headphones. deal we can find to satisfy our hearing aids. The Sennheiser HD 600 is the kind of headphone that lets you replay everything you’ve heard to get the sound you want. This helmet has been around for a while. I know there’s a lot of criticism on this already, so I’m going to skip the origins, who it was made for, and jump right into the build, comfort, and sound quality. Most of the material in the Sennheiser HD 600 is plastic. The plastic is sturdy and has a speckled stone design. The plastic surrounds the headphones and is used for the headband. However, this does not make the headphones fragile or less expensive. In addition to the plastic, the helmet also has memory foam that is used in the headband and the pads with velvet that covers them. A metal headband connects the headband to the headphones and can be adjusted to fit your head size. While they don’t beat the precision or depth of the models at the top of our list, the HD600 still goes toe-to-toe with headphones that cost twice as much, like the Beyerdynamic Amiron Home, mentioned above. They are renowned for being able to respond well to a wide range of amplifiers, which you will definitely need due to their high impedance, and for their ability to accurately translate sound. They are far from the most current model, and you should expect their construction to be a bit simple and unsophisticated, but combine them with a Schiit battery (a Modi DAC and a Magni amplifier) and you will witness some of the best audio. pairings. By the way, you might be wondering why we chose them over the HD650 or 800, which are slightly newer. The answer? The HD600s sound better. Sometimes it is that easy. BEYERDYNAMIC DT 770 PRO 80 OHM STUDIO HEADPHONES Sale beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO 80 Ohm Over-Ear Studio Headphones in Gray. Enclosed design, wired for... * Closed over-ear headphones, ideal for professional recording and monitoring * Perfect for studio and stage recordings thanks to their pure, high-resolution sound * The soft, circumaural and replaceable velour ear pads ensure high wearing comfort Check Price on Amazon If you need a closed alternative to the Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro, then Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro 80 ohm is the Best Low Impedance Headphones. They have a rugged design and a Beyerdynamic V-shaped sound signature. This is a classic pair of headphones that has been in common use in the production industry for several decades. Their sound is not as precise as that of the DT 990 Pro. This is a drawback associated with the closed back design. However, this does not reflect the quality of the product. The DT 770 Pro has better bass output than the DT 990 Pro. Being a closed design, the DT 770 Pro can deliver more bass. They also have a crisp, clear bass output that doesn’t extend to the mid frequencies. They have an unusually high soundstage, a feature that makes the DT 990 Pro a better choice for its lack. Still, the DT 770 ranks higher than ATH M40X, ATH M50X and most closed-back headsets in their price range. The Beyerdynamic brand enjoys an excellent reputation in the world of headphones. Whether you’re looking for studio headphones or a portable type, Beyerdynamic has something you can always check out. The Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro (80 Ohms) is one of the best closed-back headphones you can get at a cheaper price while still getting audiophile-quality sound. The overall weight of this headset is negligible for circumaural headphones. The headband is comfortable, and as mentioned earlier, it can be easily adjusted by hand to fit your head shape. The pads are well padded and covered with a very soft and breathable fabric. At first the ear cups are stiff, but after occasional use they become quite comfortable. The clamping force is quite good, it is not noticeable, and you can have the helmet for long hours without getting tired. For closed headphones, the Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 80 Ohm is good with passive noise isolation. I wouldn’t call it great because in very loud environments they leak a bit in noise, but in normal settings they are fine. Now on to the sound, and start with the bass. The Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro (80 Ohm) for me excels in low notes. Initially, when you listen to the Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro 80 Ohm, the bass sounds out of control but give it a little time to burn, and the bass becomes more tight and punchy. Overall, the Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro is a nice pair of closed-ended low impedance headphones. They combine both sound and build quality, making them hard to beat. AUDIO-TECHNICA ATH-M50X PROFESSIONAL STUDIO MONITOR HEADPHONES Audio-Technica ATH-M50X Professional Studio Monitor Headphones, Black, Professional Grade,... * Critically acclaimed sonic performance praised by top audio engineers and pro audio reviewers * Proprietary 45 millimeter large aperture drivers with rare earth magnets and copper clad aluminum wire voice coils * Exceptional clarity throughout an extended frequency range with deep accurate bass response Check Price on Amazon If you want critical headphones that sound good, but open designs aren’t practical for more casual use, get the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x. The M50x is among the most popular headphones in the audiophile community thanks to its great sound, durable construction, and affordability. The Audio-Technica ATH-M50x is probably one of the most recommended headphones as an inexpensive alternative in the world of hi-fi audio. Why? Because these are versatile. They look good, they are foldable and they have good comfort. The ATH-M50x is also well built and seems quite sturdy so they will last a long time. The Audio-Technica ATH-M50x is ideal for listening to music; however, these are not neutral enough to be called studio monitors as the name suggests. Find out more about it below. The ATH-M50X are closed over-ear headphones. The hull is well built and although most of the material is plastic it appears to be of high quality. Few pieces of metal are used in the construction of the headband. From our previous experience with the old ATH-M50, the ATH-M50X is also durable. Audio Technica also spiced this up a bit by providing blue, white, and red versions of this model. The ATH-M50x has deep, extended bass, accurately reproduces instruments and vocals, and has excellent highs that are neither too sharp nor too hollow. They are comfortable and feel durable enough to easily last for a few years, even if you accidentally drop them a few times. The Audio-Technica ATH-M50x have closed-back headphones that make them slightly more suitable for commuting and everyday use than the other recommendations on this list. However, this also means that its soundstage is not as spacious and immersive as that created by open models. That said, they sound better than other closed-back headphones in their price range and are a good option for audiophiles looking for a more versatile option.

They’re well-made and provide excellent comfort if you prefer a snug fit. Because they isolate more noise and leak less than open-back models like the DT 1990 PRO and DT 990 PRO, they are more adaptable. They are, however, bulky, and the included case is very large, so they will not be very portable. On the plus side, unlike the lower-end Beyerdynamic versions, they include a detachable cord. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS WHAT IS HEADPHONE IMPEDANCE? Simply explained, because headphones are electronic devices that run on electricity, they will (naturally) have some resistance to the electrical current flowing through them. Impedance is closely tied to resistance, but it also takes into account a few other elements. WHY DO SOME HEADPHONES RUN LOW IMPEDANCE AND OTHERS RUN HIGH? The fact that people listen to music on their phones or mobile devices is one of the main reasons why popular headphone alternatives today are developed with low impedance in mind. People nowadays use their phones to listen to music, podcasts, audiobooks, and other media on the go. It’s more accessible, more widely available, and far more convenient than carrying about even an iPod! Because the market is clamouring for headphones that function well with low impedance, headphone makers are responding. Lower impedance level solutions produce superior sound when connected with these devices, but genuine audiophiles are starting to feel left out in the cold. HOW MANY OHMS SHOULD MY LOW IMPEDANCE HEADPHONES BE? You can get away with headphones rated for 8 to 32 ohms if you’re going to be listening to music more casually on a frequent basis (typically on a smartphone, tablet, or computer). Low-impedance headphones like these will perform brilliantly with “underpowered” audio equipment, allowing you to hear the music clearly in a way that is difficult to achieve with higher-impedance headphones. Stick to headphones with a resistance of 32 ohms or less, and you’ll be able to listen to music on pretty much any mobile device from now on. YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKE... 1.
