Which one should I get, Beyerdynamic DT 770 32ohm or Beyerdynamic DT 770 80ohm?
Source: I plan to use it with both my smartphone and laptop as sources. I usually prefer not to use amps as it's too much of a hassle to carry it around (can't walk around with too much stuff in your pockets, man).
The dilemma here is that the 80ohm have velour pads while the 32ohm version uses pleather pads. Despite knowing that the 32ohm suits my needs better, I want to buy the 80ohm for its comfy velour pads. From what I have read, the pillow-like, extremely comfortable velour pads are one of the main features of the beyer dt770 that people keeps bringing up.
Also, some people say that the 80ohm version works just fine unamped if listening at low volumes. How low is low volume? I usually listen to music at 70% loudness to prevent hearing damage.
IMHO, if you care about loudness only, then 80 ohm works just fine. If you care about the dynamics, proper amping and stuffs, then 32 Ohm might suit you better. Well, either way, it'd be very very good if you could test it out in the store, since you'd wanna know how much your laptop/smartphone output is.Source: I plan to use it with both my smartphone and laptop as sources.
