Great Sounding!
The DT150 would be perfect if it were not for the stupid cable connection to the headset! It's a great shame that such a quality solid product should have such a flimsy connector, although secured by a small screw (you will need a very small screwdriver and hope you find the screw included!) it still seems flimsy & obtrusive when wearing. Such a shame a better design couldn't be made on this near perfect headphones.
The sound quality is everything you would expect from Beyerdynamic, the Dt150 are great all rounders, easily covering playback, mixing, monitoring, with a warm bass, good midrange & audible clear trebles. There is no noticeable sound coloration which is great for mastering basic mixes at home.
To get the best from these headphones 250ohms, I'd probably recommend plugging into a semi/pro desk/mixer or a headphone amp. Just to add that I do plug directly into iMac on occasions and it sounds fine.

Still a standard to measure others by.
Very comfortable covering the whole ear easily. Excellent outside noise attenuation. Very balanced frequency response - much more so than the new 'industry standard' audio-technica ATH-M50X. My only criticism would be the high impedance, making them a bit harder to drive compared to more modern designs. The only closed back headphone I use and would choose above these are the Yamaha MT7 which are superb.

Great and Bulletproof Monitoring Headphones
Positive:
* Accurate high mids with fast transients
* Closed back design makes bass punchier and has a passive noise reduction of approximately 20 dBA (according to Beyerdynamic's own specs) - This makes it quite useful for monitoring in noisy environments
* Built like a tank! I have no idea how anyone could break these headphones as they seem positively bulletproof - Most parts also seem to be user-serviceable
Negative:
* Bass seems slightly over-present and smeared
* Quite heavy and can get uncomfortable after long sessions because of the narrow headband concentrating pressure - The DT-100 has a much broader and more comfortable headband: I don't know why they changed it...
Conclusion:
Great for monitoring but not the best for mixing by itself. Used alongside reference quality headphones or other more accurate and transparent sources it can be useful for a different perspective.

Nice
Great cans for recording. Sound doesn't come out . Never had to change parts so far but you can if needed.

Peerless sound quality but not as tough as they should be
I love the crisp, accurate sound of these cans, but one of the screws keeping the headband and the left can attached fell off after only a few months use. A bit disappointing.
Still, everything is feed replaceable.
