Baloney Balderdash Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 (edited) I love my Sennheiser HD-380 Pro headphones, as much for casual music listening, as far recording, mixing and practicing bass and guitar, but I really need a new pair of headphones, as these has served me well for something like nearly 20 years now. However the Sennheiser HD-380 Pro ones are not in production anymore, so which would you recommend I get instead to replace them, the Sennheiser HD-300 Pro or Beyerdynamic DT-770 Pro, or maybe something entirely different, though closed back is a must, in a similar price class? Something with as clear, detailed, flat response, and authentic reproduction of the source as possible.

Wolfram Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 What's your budget? Also, if you love the 380s, what is it you want from new ones. I've had my HD-280s for around 20 years now and they're still going strong. I did replace the earpads and the padding on the head band about five years ago (spares are available) and to be honest they're as good as new. I've not tried either the Sennheiser or Beyerdynamic 'phones you mentioned, so can't comment. But if I were going for a set of closed-back 'phones to do-it-all I would be trying to stretch for the Shure SRH1540. Cheers, David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
