The Beyerdynamic 770 Pro (80 ohm) offers an immersive music experience and is suitable for TV and video, but due to its poor microphone and lack of wireless capability, it may not be ideal for calls, meetings, or use during exercise. While the Sennheiser Momentum Sport comes at a higher price, it provides excellent mic quality and active noise cancelling, and is tailored for exercise with features like sweat and dustproof certification, secure fit accessories, as well as health tracking integration, making it versatile for sports, calls, and gaming, but its sound may be less tailored for music purists.

How the Beyerdynamic 770 Pro (80 ohm) and the Sennheiser Momentum Sport compare to other earbuds and headphones
"Altogether, when you consider its accessible price tag, the performance, the build, and its outstanding comfort, I think that the DT770 Pro is fantastic option for anyone looking for a closed-back headphone in the sub-$1,000 range, and I can confidently give it a strong recommendation."
"We hadn't been expecting a new pair of dedicated sports buds but the surprise was nonetheless exciting. I got to try out the new buds at CES 2024 and while they have stayed true to delivering that "signature" Sennheiser sound, with a wide soundstage and strong sense of detail, it’s the extra wearable tech inside them that stands out to me against the best workout headphones."
