Our Verdict

Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO

AKG K371

The Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO are better over-ear studio headphones than the AKG K371. The Beyerdynamic have a more stable fit and feel more durable. While they both have well-balanced sound profiles, the AKG have a slightly more even treble range, but their fit is a bit more prone to inconsistencies among users. To their credit,  the AKG leak considerably less audio.
