I'm not keen on open backs but i've two pair of the DT770 pro closed backs - 80 ohm and 250 ohm, and they suit me fine 
I found the 250's weren't loud enough on some things - mismatch I guess, but the 80's make up for it. Sturdy and reliable. Been wearing them on and off since 7am today, so little ear fatigue. Good call...

So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

You're a braver man than I. My Beyers are fantastic for watching a movie, but anything more than a couple of hours is hard going on the upper treble.Bg wrote: ↑Mon May 01, 2023 7:32 pm I'm not keen on open backs but i've two pair of the DT770 pro closed backs - 80 ohm and 250 ohm, and they suit me fine

They keep telling me tone is in the fingers, but I have yet to see a "look at my fingers" thread.

Oh dear, I did a thing. It was a bargain. 100 watts of bargain. And its been some time since I made a 4x12, maybe a full stack this time. No rush.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

I suspect you would hate it.... is that enough info?
Apparently the clean channel is awesome for pedals
And I'm sure I can work with the dirty side. And it was cheap for a 100 watt amp, it'll be my workshop amp.... with at least a 4x12 under it.So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.
