Medium price have definitely got to be DT770 Pros

DT700 Pro X vs the 770 Pro which would be a better purchase for music?

DT700 Pro X has definitley the better tonality. But DT770 has better detail retrieval. Personally I prefer DT700 becuase I find the 770 too sharp.

Mind explaining the differences between tonality and detail retrieval - more so what exactly that last one would encompass.

Tonality (at least to me) is the balance between bass, treble and midrange. DT700 has a balanced ratio between these three but DT770 has more bass and treble than it has midrange. Detail retrieval is kind of self explanatory, it's how much nuances and fine details you can extract and hear from the music. (sorry for my bad English).

I would love to hear from someone who has tried both as well.

Comfortable, reliable, cheap spare parts (after 3.5 years or about 2000 of hours usage, I need only to change headband which costs about 10 euros) -

​

all these features makes DT770 Pros 80ohm (with velour pads) my recommendation for anyone who wants to enjoy music and not having headaches with reliability or "clamped" head like m40 (they sounded good but worse than DT770 Pro and they wasn't comfortable for more than an hour of listening) and don't let me start with their plastics and headband quality....

​

IEM Shure SE215 , closed back DT770Pro 80 ohm and Earfun Air Pro 2 are perfect trio which I'm going to use until they are dead.

The SE215 has stayed with me for 6 years. I don't care what anyone says about the sound, but it's a survivor. It's only starting to fail recently, which prompted me to buy a couple of upgrades and a 3rd that came very quickly (in case the SE215 fails forever).
