How does the DT 270 PRO differ from the DT 240 PRO?
The DT 270 PRO is the consistent further development of beyerdynamic’s compact, over-ear concept. Both models are aimed at users with professional demands who require a flexible headphone in a space-saving format. The DT 240 PRO is no longer in the range.
Key differences at a glance:
• Sound: The DT 270 PRO offers significantly improved and more balanced sound tuning • Comfort: A major difference. The DT 270 PRO features larger velour ear pads, low weight (194 g), and a padded headband, providing noticeably higher comfort – especially for long sessions. • Design: Modernised, foldable, robust housing – inspired by the current PRO series design. • Connection: Detachable coiled cable with 3.5 mm jack, connectable on either side. USB-C adapter included.
The DT 270 PRO delivers clear advantages in comfort, flexibility, and everyday usability – while maintaining proven professional sound quality.
How does the DT 270 PRO differ from the DT 770 PRO?
The DT 270 PRO is more compact, lighter, and designed for mobile or flexible use – for example, for music production in the home studio, podcast recordings on the move, or use in educational institutions such as music schools. It is also a great choice for instrumentalists who want to practise at home using headphones. With its balanced sound, low weight of just 194 grams, comfortable velour ear pads, and padded headband, it offers excellent comfort in a compact design. The detachable coiled cable with 3.5 mm jack, along with the included USB-C adapter, ensures versatile connectivity and flexibility for everyday use.
The DT 770 PRO, on the other hand, is a proven studio headphone for stationary use. Its robust build, strong passive isolation, and available impedance variants (32, 80, or 250 ohms) make it the ideal choice for continuous use in professional or advanced home studios. Sound-wise, it focuses on highly detailed reproduction – perfect for professional monitoring and recording. Its build quality, achieved through manual production in Germany, is reference-setting, and the availability of spare parts is extensive – a clear advantage for professional users who need long-term serviceability.
In short: The DT 270 PRO is the mobile, flexible solution for creative workflows in changing environments. The DT 770 PRO remains the reference for stationary studio work with high demands on sound fidelity and durability.

With its balanced sound, high comfort and practical details such as the USB-C adapter, the DT 270 PRO is suitable for a wide range of modern applications – both mobile and stationary.
The DT 700 PRO X is intended for users producing music at an even higher level – in well-equipped home studios or project-based setups with professional standards.

Many professional users rely on the DT 700 PRO X as a versatile studio tool for recording, monitoring, and mixing.
