Beyerdynamic T 5p Review

"FOR: Dynamic and good timing; a decently open, lively sound; good build; portable.
AGAINST: The closed-back design takes away some edge and transparency."

Beyerdynamic's T5p are luxuriously full-sized, high-end headphones that are suitable for all music devices. Wired felt they stand out above the rest. With nearly all types of music, experience exceptional midrange clarity - even when using an iPod! Due to the excellent build, they are incredibly durable but you would demand that with the massive price tag that accompanies them.

“Likes: powerful sound with a present middle and powerful bass; pleasant to wear; robust construction. Dislikes: too cumbersome for mobile headphones.”

Value for money: “good”

“Three is the magic number - with the T 5 p, Beyerdynamic is offering film makers, as well music lovers, a fully-fledged, mobile, Hi-Fi headphone. But it’s a luxury you have to be able to afford.”

Value for money: “good” (2 out of 5 stars)

“... When connected to an iPod the T5p play sufficiently loudly. But they’re quite heavy for mobile headphones. It doesn’t press down too much - but they’re not the kind of headphones you would wear to go jogging. The T5p has the same neutral quality of the T1; its basic tones aren’t too heavy and it has a crisp, deep bass. Voices are a touch more natural with the T5p but in exchange the T1 sounds minimally spacious.”

Value for money: “good”

“... Although they cost almost 900 euros these headphones fully meet all expectations, as the sound is just as breathtaking as the workmanship. The headphones sit perfectly, although at 379 grams they’re not exactly light. ...”

Value for money: “good”

“The mobile sibling of the T1 home cinema headphones. Specifically designed for Hi-Fi enthusiasts who want audiophile standards of music, even when they’re on the go.”
