Alternatives
Choose Audio-Technica ATH-M50x if…
- you need interchangeable cables for different setups
- you want a fold‑away design for travel or storage
- you lack a dedicated headphone amp and need lower impedance
- you prefer a single‑purchase solution without extra
Choose Beyerdynamic DT 1990 Pro MKII if…
- you need an open‑back design for a wider soundstage
- you want to switch earpads for different isolation levels
- you require a detachable cable for easy replacement
- you rely on a flat, calibrated response for reference mixing
How to Decide
Beyerdynamic’s DT 770 Pro (250 Ω) is a studio‑grade, closed‑back headphone prized by studio engineers and audio professionals for its flat, accurate response and high passive isolation. The alternatives split into a few clear camps: the Audio‑Technica ATH‑M50x leans on detachable 3.5 mm/6.3 mm cables for flexible connectivity; the Beyerdynamic DT 1990 Pro MKII emphasizes an open‑back design with Tesla drivers and swappable earpads for a spacious, reference‑grade soundstage.
When choosing a replacement, focus on impedance and amp requirements (the DT 770 Pro’s 250 Ω needs a dedicated amp, while the DT 1990 Pro MKII also benefits from one but the ATH‑M50x works well with consumer sources), cable architecture (detachable versus fixed cables affect convenience and upgrades), acoustic design (closed‑back isolation versus open‑back spaciousness), and price point versus feature set (the DT 1990 Pro MKII commands a premium for its Tesla drivers and swappable pads, the ATH‑M50x offers a lower‑cost, fully detachable solution).
All Alternatives
“Closed‑back studio monitor headphones widely used for mixing, directly comparable to DT 770 Pro.”
“Open‑back reference studio headphones; same professional studio purpose despite different back design.”
