Beyerdynamic Amiron Home (717.525)

Reason to stay at home

Amiron Home is one of the latest flagship models in the line of the top German manufacturer Beyerdynamic. The name of the headphones speaks for itself, the headphones are designed primarily for home use, and are not particularly designed for studio work. For this, Beyerdynamic has many other models. But all this is not interesting. It’s much more interesting that in the reviews of this model, they are highly addictive and after getting to know them, your old headphones will no longer cause their former enthusiasm.

Incredible attention to detail

The first thing that really touches the soul is the incredible love for every little thing, like bells in the background, hitting a string with your fingers, or the barely noticeable noise of an amplifier in the recording room. Yes, many models for $400 or more almost always have excellent detail and panning, but the Amiron Home takes it to a whole new level. It's hard to describe in words, you have to hear it for yourself.

For connoisseurs of jazz, classical music and any multifaceted music

In terms of sound quality, there is an almost perfect balance, saturation, dynamics and density (thanks to Tesla branded radiators). By nature, they are more airy with an emphasis on a silky top, rather than an assertive bottom. In terms of musical genres, she is completely omnivorous and honestly voices what the musicians recorded, but she really reveals herself with complex and multi-instrumental music, where attention to detail is more important than drive, bass and pressure. However for such beauties paired with headphones, you need a good amplifier, DAC and sound source.

Indestructible frame from DT 770 Pro

In terms of design, Amiron Home looks like a fairly simple model with a familiar frame from the DT 770 Pro. And that's good, DT 770s tend to last forever and are extremely rarely repaired. The longevity of the model adds a simple replaceable cable. Despite the apparent large size, they are in perfect order with ergonomics — they are almost not felt on the head and you can listen to music in them almost all day without any discomfort.

Issue price

Against the backdrop of all this, the only negative is the price of more than $ 600 dollars. Headphones of this class are not always used in studios, not to mention just listening to music in them at home. And the model has worthy competitors like the Audio-Technica ATH-R70x, which will cost a couple of hundred dollars cheaper, but play just as well with some caveats.
