DESCRIPTION
The DT 880 combines the strengths of open and closed studio
headphones. The improved systems of the legendary DT 880 now
offer a high quality headphone with excellent analytical properties,
especially for classical music. The DT 880 reproduces an amazing
sound spectrum, with clean, clear detail from the deepest bass to
the highest highs. The highs are crystal-clear without being
unpleasant, impressive even at low levels. The neutral balanced
mids are analytical and strong, without being predominant. The
DT 880’s bass is voluminous without being too obtrusive. The
single-sided cable, the soft ear pads and the padded headband
make the DT 880 extra-comfortable for extended listening sessions.
The DT 880 is still manufactured in Germany, providing an excellent
quality.
