I'm at micro center RN. Do you recommend the DT 970 pro closeback and 80 or 250ohm or DT 990 pro openback 250ohm. Would be my first good pair! c:

If you don't have any DAC/AMP then go with 32 ohms 770 pro. If you have a decent DAC/AMP go with 80 ohm 770 pro.

If you have a good DAC/AMP, and if you prefer bright and open sound, go with 990 pro.

If you have a good DAC/AMP, and if you prefer bassier pairs and concern about noise leakage, go with 770 pro, either 80 ohms if you don't like coiled cables, and 250 ohms if you prefer coiled cable. Remember, impedance rating doesn't mean much. both 80 ohms and 250 ohms doesn't sound different for most people. 80 ohms will be much easier to power. The 250 ohms 770 pro is a bit difficult to power, you would need some good amps for them.

I just realized I typed 970 pro instead of 770 pro. My sincere apologies.

Impedance doesn't matter as much as sensitivity
