A Classic Amoung HI-FI Headphones
Music lovers delight in its natural, vibrant sound as well as its excellent spacious reproduction.
The semi-open headphones attenuate ambient noise, but do not exclude it completely, and thus convey a harmonious sound experience. These headphones have been part of the beyerdynamic portfolio for 20 years and still enjoy exceptional popularity. All components are available as replacement parts, making the DT 880 Edition a reliable companion for many years to come..
This Is The DT 880 32 Ω Edition
A Concert Atmosphere At Home
The DT 880 Edition sounds very neutral and relaxed. The bass reproduction penetrates very deeply, but is not overstated. This feature is particularly appealing to lovers of jazz and classical music because it gives the headphones a really transparent sound and makes the individual components of the music clearly audible. Thanks to its semi-open design, the DT 880 Edition allows some ambient noise to penetrate and escape, but attenuates it somewhat stronger than in the case of a fully open headphone such as the DT 990 Edition.
Excellent Wearing Comfort
The DT 880 Edition is very light for its size and ensures a pleasant fit thanks to its carefully selected materials.
The soft ear pads are made from breathable and skin-friendly velour, effectively keeping any build-up of heat away from your ears and allowing you to enjoy music for hours.
The combination of comfortable headband and robust yokes made from aluminium ensure a pleasant fit with excellent stability for long listening sessions.
Difference Compared To The DT 880 Pro
When it comes to sound the DT 880 Edition specially designed for use at home is identical to the DT 880 Pro made for use in professional recording studios.
That's because beyerdynamic use similarly designed acoustic transducers for both headphones.
However, the Edition models have a somewhat softer headband for enjoying music at home with maximum comfort while the PRO headset has a slightly tighter fit on the head so that it doesn't move even in everyday studio use.
Moreover, the Edition has a straight cable while the PRO has a coiled cable.
