- Okay, let's talk about the new PRO X series
from Beyerdynamic.
Now, we had the great opportunity
to work with Beyerdynamic on this launch,
and I'm not biased, they're just really nice people
to work with, making nice products.
Many of you will know
that I've been using Beyerdynamic headphones
for many, many years.
In fact, I'd like to say decades.
So I have had the DT 770's planted on my head for like,
well probably since I came out the womb actually.
But now, for the first time I have new headphones.
Can you see those shiny new headphones,
the DT 700 Pro X,
from Beyerdynamic.
A new updated logo, a new feel.
And I will say out of the Pro X launch series
there are four new products we're gonna talk about.
Out of them all, These are my favorite.
Now they cost a little bit more than the DT 770's,
I used to wear.
The 250 ohms edition, by the way, the studio edition.
But they sound amazing.
Just the moment I put these on I was like,
"Oh wow, this is full. This is present.
"This is frankly amazing."
They also look better.
And to top it all, they feel more comfortable.
Like the the little muff foam thingies,
they feel more comfortable.
When I put my old DT 770's, yes, I had bashed them
around a bit, they felt kind of looser on my head.
These feels nice and stable, and I feel like I could
wear them for quite a few hours producing audio.
I'm thrilled, by the way.
I don't know if you can see it, but this cable here
is detachable, so I can take it out and swap it out.
And what is really cool about these new headphones?
These will probably be my new headphones now
on live streams and things like that.
What is really cool about them, is they have
interchangeable leads.
So you can have a three meter lead or a one meter lead
which is really amazing because in my studio
my box of headphone amp thingies
is like meters away.
So I use three meters.
Whereas Izabela has another product on her head.
Here she is with the fantastic
DT 900 Pro X headphones
- Whoo-hoo, check me out.
- [Mike] And she's using the one meter cable because-
- And I love that.
Can I just say, I love that.
I used to have a cable trailing all the way down
and catching on my drawers and stuff.
- [Mike] Behind your chair. - This is perfect.
- [Mike] You'd roll it over a few times.
Now, let me tell you the difference between closed back
and open back headphones, just in case you're wondering.
'Cuz these are very much content creator kind of headphones.
So if you're content creator, if you're a podcaster
or let me just clear it up for you straight away
you wanna get the DT 700 Pro X, the closed back headphones.
Reason for that is you're recording something,
you don't want audio bleeding out of your headphones
and getting picked up by your microphone.
So they're great for recording podcasts, shows,
doing live stuff.
Whereas the open backs that Izabela is currently wearing
look at those, modeling them there.
Look at that, you can see they're open back.
They have like grills in each side.
Whereas I do not have grills in my headphones.
They're better for like critical mixing.
So if you are a music producer
if you're putting together jingles, you're making audio,
then the open back are better for you.
But if you're a podcaster, a live streamer, the closed back.
So, the 700 Pro X, basically they're the ones to go for.
But if you're doing critical mixing,
- Clearly I'm doing a lot of critical mixing. (laughing)
- [Mike] Yes Izabela, I might try to hook you
up with some 700 Pro X's?
- Yes, no I will.
But this is just to demonstrate and they are really
comfortable.
I do like how they sit on your ears.
They are just nice.
But to me the killer feature is this, to be fair.
The short cable. (laughing)
- But like don't just buy them 'cuz they got a cool cable.
They sound better, they're more comfortable.
These are gonna be my new go-to headphones.
So I just wanna say my DT 770's, the old ones.
They're not going in the bin, Don't worry.
I'll have them as backup headphones.
I love, I still love the DT 770 Pros, by the way.
But now we have the DT 700 Pro X.
These are my new go-to.
The headphones are definitely my favorite part
of the launch, but wait, there's more,
- [Izabela] It gets better.
- And these, these have been around since about the start
of October 2021, by the way.
They're on Amazon, they're everywhere.
They're even on Beyerdynamic's site.
So you can see all the products.
So there's two headphones
and they also have microphones for,
again, You can see here very much front and center.
These products are made for content creators,
and we are using all Beyerdynamic on this stream,
just 'cuz we want to.
They didn't pay us to use these products on our live stream,
by the way, we just decided to do it.
And I gotta say that,
well, first of all, I'm using this one, which is the
M 90 Pro X Condenser microphone.
And I think it sounds amazing, for the price point.
And Izabela is using the Dynamic microphone
cause she's got a bit of a bigger room
a bit of echo going on there,
and it doesn't pick up so much of your room noise.
Frankly, it's much better than your old
very, very expensive $1,000 condenser microphone,
because it rejects a lot of that room echo.
- It does.
And one of my pain points with the previous
microphone was the fact that I just kept
knocking it off.
Whereas this is designed to just sit in front of you,
and actually you can just move it around.
It's very sturdy, the, especially the, um,
what do you call it?
The- (Mike laughing)
- [Mike] The thing.
- The thing. (Isabela laughing)
- [Mike] The base, very professional.
- The Bit that holds the microphone.
You know, the microphone is not going to fall out of it.
Whereas in the previous-
- [Mike] The Shock Mount, you mean Izabela.
- [Izabela] The shock Mount! - Shock mount, yeah.
- That's the one, the shock mount.
You know, it's very, it feels very solid.
And I think that that's important because
if you are going to move the microphone up and down
and you know, the microphone is not in the
standard position all the time, then you may want
to consider a microphone that has a very good shock mount.
(Isabela laughing)
- [Mike] Absolutely.
So to wrap up the Pro X series from Beyerdynamic
come with a big thumbs up from both of us.
We love them and you know, definitely gonna be
using the headphones.
We'll keep trialing the mics as well.
I know we, we have an endless supply of mics
here at MRC.
But I'm liking what, I like my condenser microphone.
I think it sounds good.
And, the best thing is I can use it for streaming
but I can also get closer and do voiceover as well.
And obviously that's a great thing.
So you make up your own mind, but yeah, you can
go check 'em out.
They are on Amazon.
All the products price point seems to
be just shy of $300 for the headphones.
$300 for the condenser microphone, the M 70 Pro X,
and around $350 for the condenser,
the M 90 Pro X microphone.
So go check 'em out.
It is the new Pro X series
from Beyerdynamic.
