I've been using these headphones for about one year.
Pros:
- Very linear and accurate response. Ideal for studio applications.
- Thick and comfortable velvet earcups.
- Single-sided, replaceable cable.
Cons:
- The headband is not wide enough and it can get uncomfortable after several hours of use.
- The plastic finish looks cheap (but it's very sturdy: I've fallen asleep several times on the headphones).
- Isolation from external noise could be better (but that's not the main purpose of the headphones).
I tested many Sennheiser, Sony and AKG headphones. I also own the Sennheiser HD 497, which are much worse.
Very good value for money.
If I need new headphones I will certainly buy the DT 250 again but I would also test other BeyerDynamics models.
Notice that these headphones have a very high impedance (80 Ohms).
