Well, I am going to do a bit of research and if it’s the winner I will contact them.
Out of the headphones I got, it is the best for EDM. Sub-bass focused, lots of rumble but very clean and tight, with airy treble that is not peaky.
Sony MDR-1AM2 is the runner up though.
Have you tried the two I mentioned in the original post?
It’s quite hard to choose when everybody tells his favorite pair, yet I have little comparison in between those picks
Sold off the M50X years ago. Havent tried any beyer stuff though.

Just found a local store selling the H1707

Ya that’s the thing there is a really wide selection and there is a fair amount of good headphones around, so it aint easy 
But dont sweat it too much most of the stuff people recommend around here might not be “the perfect headphones for you” but they are decent sets that you can use to narrow down the choices
Yeah, I also see it similarly. Will do the research from there.

What about the fit and comfort of the H1707? I see they’re kinda between on-ear and over-ear so comfort might be an issue…
Yeah, that is true. Depends on your ear size. For me, it is like a hybrid between over/on-ear.
There are ways to fix it though, like a pad change.
I havent done it because I really do not want to change the sound…

My amp might be a bit of a problem, since it’s a hybrid tube amp and I heard that it doesn’t play really well with planar headphones.
Doubt that will please you tbh. I demoed the Sundara with quite a lot of sub-bass EQ (10db lol) and it isnt nearly as powerful/fast/tight as the H1707.
I’m currently using a bit of bass/sub-bass eq on the DT880 to pull at least something out of the damn thing…
Yeah, the H1707 look interesting, but I have to watch stuff on YT, read review etc. I would also like if someone could compare it directly to the DT770 as that’s probably my main candidate as I know half the equation going with those (build, comfort etc.) and they are getting very good reviews and according to most people, they’re bassy. Even on Beyer’s site it list it with this:

Seems quite the opposite to the one I have now lol, but that’s also why it would be great to have both for different occasions
Thanks, exactly what I was looking for
np, just use the search function on that head-fi thread and you find some stuff.
And there is one here as well.
Would love some subjective comparison as well tho. I’m an amateur in this field and can’t quite imagine what the graphs “sound like”.
Guess the DT770 has more pronounced treble (well, all Beyers do) and I’m probably into that as long as it’s not to the point where it becomes fatiguing. However, I don’t think that’s the only difference and there are a lot more, mainly because the build is completely different (3 drivers etc.)
I’ve watched some review on YT and they mentioned two cables, does it have just a regular 3,5mm or is it something more exotic? EDIT: From what I see on the seller’s page I guess it comes with two cables. One with two 2 pin and one with one 3 pin jacks…
This is the included cable.
Check out my review if you are new, might be a bit easier to get than other reviews.
Will do.
The other end is for an addon mic or is it for the third driver? Might be a total nonsense, but I heard something like that in the YT review…
