I agree based on what my ears told me, but with the DT770's in particular I was told they're very bass heavy. The A700's were also fairly full. The only ones I haven't tried thus far are the V-Moda M100's and I don't think I'll go that route because I don't like over-ear phones, regardless of how badass they do look, and people have told me the on-ear M80's aren't nearly as bassy.
But then, I understand why most "proper" headphones aren't. When I put on symphonic, choral, or other nuanced genres, the bottom end of the Beats seems too pronounced. However, if you listen to trap, metal, or other genres that need a lot of low end, the more "natural" or "neutral" phones are lifeless and flat.
It's all down to what you want out of a headphone. Plus I'm not gonna lie. These things look CRAZY slick and that's worth an extra $50 to me. It's like buying shoes: you can find extremely comfy shoes, but if they're ugly I don't want 'em.
Dude, much respect.
Love how you looked for what works for YOU, found it and rolled with it. So many people shy away from beats in particular because of the backlash, but it does what you want, you like them, and that's what people should care about first and foremost.
It is funny how hard ppl are trying to convince you something was wrong with your auditioning process or whatever though. Like sennheiser is giving them royalties or something lol
