Verdict

The Beyerdynamic DT 660 is a closed-back, circumaural Hi-Fi headphone featuring a wide frequency response of 5 Hz – 32,000 Hz, a 32-ohm impedance for easy driving with portable devices, and a sound pressure level of 97 dB. Known for its sophisticated, neutral sound signature, it utilizes a neodymium magnet system and a proprietary bass-reflex design to deliver detailed bass and clear, brilliant highs. Main advantages include exceptional passive noise isolation of approximately 16 dB, a convenient fold-away design with 90-degree swivelling earcups for portability, and high wearing comfort through padded headbands and soft, replaceable earpads. However, some users note the treble can occasionally sound harsh or sibilant on bright tracks, the overall aesthetic is somewhat utilitarian, and the pivot joints have been identified as potential weak points in long-term durability.
