Out of all 5 of these, which headphone has the best bass response? With and without EQ.
I had the DT770 and wasn't impressed with the bass response, I thought the AKG had a cleaner bass response than the DT770. I think the Sundara and DT770 had more bass than the AKG, but the AKG bass quality was really good. With EQ the bass in the Sundara and DT770 didn't improve much, but the AKG with EQ had amazing bass response.
I haven't actually tested out the 770s anytime recently. Just got this set cus some guy listed them on ebay as for parts. But they work perfectly fine. I just haven't used them properly because the pads are absolutely, insanely gross and crusty. New ones on the way. For me, I find I can't really focus on sound until I'm comfortable with the fit of the headphone. Hence why I dislike the sundara CB. It's too heavy and hot. This is also the reason I prefer 770 over 700 and why out of all of these, the akg is my fave. I'm too busy atm to do hours of ab testing. But I can give them all a solid listen in a few weeks if you are still interested.
