Elevating a celebrated studio legend to new heights, the DT 770 PRO X from Beyerdynamic are over-ear, closed-back studio monitoring headphones. Upgraded with PRO X technology, these headphones include new STELLAR.45 dynamic drivers for a superwide 5 Hz to 40 kHz frequency response and highly compatible 48-ohm impedance.
Along with enhanced drivers, the DT 770 PRO X sports a detachable cable with a reliable locking gold-plated mini-XLR connector for the earcup attachment, making the headphones easier to handle during regular use and helping prevent accidental pullouts. Comfort remains a focus of the DT 770 PRO X. Soft replaceable velour earpads and ergonomic memory foam padding on the durable steel spring hoop headband provide long-lasting comfort during extended sessions. The DT 770 PRO X headphones include a detachable 3 m mini-XLR to 3.5 mm TRS cable, a 3.5 mm to 6.35 mm TRS screw-on plug adapter, and a drawstring case.

100 Years of History
The DT 770 PRO X builds on Beyerdynamic’s 100-year history, combining the reference-setting features of the DT 770 PRO with the flexibility of the dynamic STELLAR.45 driver system and a detachable cable. Made in Germany, the DT 770 PRO X adds an exciting chapter to the successful Beyerdynamic DT series.
Tried-and-Tested Acoustic Signature
The DT 770 PRO X circumaural studio headphones feature the tried-and-tested acoustic signature of the DT 770 PRO: powerful bass, detailed treble, and first-class impulse behavior. Professional musicians, producers, studio operators, and sound engineers have trusted these qualities for decades. Flexible and powerful, the studio headphones are perfect for recording and monitoring purposes thanks to their closed-back design.
The Reference for a Range of Playback Equipment
Thanks to their dynamic STELLAR.45 driver with its broad frequency response of 5 to 40,000 Hz, the DT 770 PRO X headphones deliver studio reference sound on a wide range of playback equipment. With a 48-ohm impedance, these headphones are naturally compatible with both professional hardware, such as mixers and interfaces, and consumer-grade technology like smartphones.
STELLAR.45 Driver
The STELLAR.45 sound transducer uses a neodymium magnet and a voice coil made from copper-plated precision wires. The resulting high conductivity of the driver system and low weight are the reasons for its high performance.
The driver system keeps distortion extremely low, even at high SPLs. The STELLAR.45 has an impedance of 48 ohms and proves that low-impedance sound transducers can deliver excellent studio-quality sound.
Detachable Cable
As requested by many users, the DT 770 PRO X headphones now offer even more flexibility thanks to their detachable cable. The headphones come with a 3 m long straight cable with a lockable 3-pin mini-XLR connector. This can be connected to a variety of devices thanks to a 3.5 mm stereo jack, including a screw-on 6.35 mm TRS adapter.
The Most Comfortable 770 Yet
In addition to the robust spring steel headband construction, the iconic velour earpads help ensure the headphones remain comfortable even during long studio sessions. The soft memory foam used in the headband allows it to ergonomically adjust to the shape of your head.
One new feature is the integrated fontanelle recess, which helps avoid pinching pressure-sensitive parts of the head. Both the headband and the earpads can be replaced if necessary.
Pro Headphones Made in Germany
The STELLAR.45 driver systems are measured within tight tolerances several times during production. The combination of robust metal parts and impact- and scratch-resistant ABS plastic makes the DT 770 PRO X a long-lasting companion for everyday studio use. For sustainability, almost every part of these studio headphones can be replaced.
