I bought the DT 770 PRO 80 ohm and while i like them more with oratory1990 EQ ,i feel like they are not the headphones for me. Their default sound profile isn't quite what i am looking for, to me they sound a little muffled. I am looking for closed back headphones , no mic needed, In europe and i wouldn't want to pay more than 180 eur. I use them for gaming, so imaging is a little important, i listen to any kind of music so i dont need cans geared towards certains genres of music.
I can find the ft1's for 170 where i live, do they suffer from the same issues that i have with the 770's?

Hey, so i got the DT 770 pro 80 ohm , i am running them with a FIIO KA11.

While i enjoy the quality and the bass of the headphones , i feel like they sound a bit muddy or muffled, is it just something i am not used to? I had a pair of HyperX cloud 3's and i may be used to something totally different. Were my expectations of how different they would sound too high? I also tried the eq from oratory1990 (new pads version) , and while its not muddy anymore, it sounds flat and somewhat TOO clear in a way.

I also have spatial audio and audio enhancements off. I am aware of the week where i should break them in, but i am not so sure i can get used to a slightly muffled sound

Am i missing something or doing something wrong?
