KrK kns 8400 vs Beyerdynamic dt 770
Hi,
Which of those headphones would work best for music making?
Comments
Can't comment on the KRKs, but I do have the DT770s. They're fun headphones, but hardly the most balanced or neutral. Great fun for bass-heavy music or films, but I wouldn't use them for mixing.
Krk products, AFAIK, are well known to be far from flat but in good, fun way(for bass music). And in my experience I would change my decision when I bought my Adam a5 over a pair Kirk rockit 8 at almost the same price.
The bottom line is always the same: get to music store with a track you know insideout, which you have listened onto many different devices and do the comparison. Then wait a week and do it again.
In my opinion, if you are on a budget, prefer fun over clarity. Because fun will keep you making music, while clarity with no fun otoh will get you in infinite eq tweaking loop. And least but not last fun is cheaper than clarity.
I've had the same DT770s for 10+ years. They are my favorite. I will get DT880s when they die, which seems to be never. I love them.
Well the DT770s are high impedance so you'll need a headphone amp to use them. The KRKs are actually quite neutral, much moreso than their Rokit speakers which are closer to a hi-fi sound IMO. You could also check out the Sennheiser HD280s which are very popular for studio work, although the KRKs are more comfortable and flatter IMO.
I love my AKG k141 studio headphones. Comfortable on head, doesent put strain on your ears because semi open design, can change the cable if it brakes, good sound quality and the sound is well balanced.
AKG are a popular choice for studio work. I'd also consider AIAIAIs modular TMA-2s. They're pretty handy in that you can swap out parts depending on your use case.

Forgot the most important thing, specially if you are into long headphones sessions: comfort is paramount.
Me myself, for example, am blaming the day I bought my semi entry level AKG headphones: they sound shit, although they are pretty precise to me, and, most of all, after a couple of hours my ear pads just hurt to the point I ain't able to wear em again
I had a pair of AKG headphones and they applied so much pression on my ears that they were unusable after 1 hour or so.
I'll look a bit more but might go for the KrK's ones.
You have to try yourself. Everyone hears differently.
I have the DT 990 Pro and I have to say that they really do not sound good ( like HiFi ) but they do not lie to me
and I know where the bass sits ( most important for me when mixing ).
