I got the Beyerdynamic T1 V2 yesterday.

They are quite nice and quite comfortable.

I'm not sure if they would do better with an Amp or not.

I don't think I'd ever need to go over 100 on the Explorer 2 but I often run close to it. Typically 85.

Explorer 2 Amp isn't really much stronger than an iPhone 7 output.

Build is great. They weigh 350 grams with no cable. The ATH-M50's were 300 grams.

I'm on the fence with the supplied cord. It's flat so doesn't coil / uncoil easy. But it's definitely high quality.

I have a Beyerdynamic A20 Amp on the way. I suspect they won't sound better.

A lot of people say the headphones need to be run in.

If someone is standing next to me while music is playing I can't hear a thing they said. If I stop the music it's as if the headphones were not even on my head.

As I put them on I feel like I'm walking into a sound booth.

I'll report more when I get the Amp.

If you think listening to music is fun, try learning an instrument.
