BEYERDYNAMIC
HISTORY OF THE STUDIO LEGENDS
Founded in 1924, as "Elektrotechnische Fabrik Eugen Beyer"
in Berlin, the company has radically influenced and promoted
audio recording and sound reproduction. Products like the
first dynamic headphones DT 48 (1937), the first studio-grade
dynamic microphone M 19 (1939) or the tour guide system
for museums and factory tours which was presented by
beyerdynamic for the first time in 1974 were milestones in this
field. But they are just three examples of the many innovations
that have made beyerdynamic a leading audio specialist over
the years.
Countless musicians, sound engineers, conference
participants, interpreters and hi-fi fans have come into
contact with beyerdynamic products over the years – either
consciously or not, at work or in their leisure time. For the
company, they all belong to "Generation Audio", a family of
sound enthusiasts and passionate users.

Sound you can rely on
The sound of the studio legends is without doubt a benchmark
for professional users. It’s secret lies not only in our cutting-
edge drivers, which are hand-made in Germany, but also in
a very sophisticated bass-reflex system. The membrane can
“breathe” in an otherwise closed housing and is therefore
extremely quickand precise in its response, accurately
replaying frequencies anywhere between 5 to 35,000 Hz. This
makes the DT 770 PRO an ideal tool for critical listening and
monitoring purposes.
As opposed to many “lifestyle headphones”, beyerdynamic
headphones are to last. Only the best materials are used, such
as neodymium magnets, a steel headband, anodized aluminum
forks, composite housings and soft skin earpads. All of these
parts are hand-made in Germany - with incredible attention to
detail and quality.
Every part is replaceable
These headphones are designed to perform even under extreme
conditions. Its superior build quality has ensured that the DT
770 PRO is the No.1 choice for professional users around the
world. However, in the rarest of occasions should something
break, nearly every part can be replaced individually thanks
to intelligent design and implementation. This is what we’ve
promised our customers for more than 30 years, and this is
what we deliver.
