The semi-open headphones attenuate outside noise but do not completely close off, creating a harmonious sound experience. It has been part of beyerdynamic's portfolio for over 20 years and still enjoys great popularity. All components are available as spare parts, making the DT 880 Edition a long-term companion. The DT 880 Edition sounds very neutral and relaxed. The bass reproduction is very deep, but not overemphasized. This is especially appreciated by jazz and classical music lovers, as the headphones sound very transparent and the individual components of the music are clearly differentiated and audible. Due to its semi-open design, the DT 880 Edition allows some ambient sound to enter and exit, but attenuates it more than open headphones such as the DT 990 Edition. The over-ear headphones are very lightweight for their size and have a comfortable fit with their carefully selected materials. Its soft ear pads are made of skin-friendly and breathable velour, which effectively keeps heat away from your ears - even after hours of listening to music. In addition, a comfortable headband and robust aluminium receiver forks ensure a comfortable fit and the high stability of this premium headphone. Nothing stands in the way of extensive listening sessions.
