After being somewhat unsatisfied with my Panasonic Monitor 10R’s, I received by Beyerdynamic DT250-80’s on Friday. Not as super comfortable as I had hoped for, but definitely an improvement of the Panasonics. The velour material is much better than leather, it doesn’t get warm and make your ears all sweaty. Bass resposne is much better a well, and the head band is much more comfortable. Plus they don’t look so unusual.
