The DT 880 Edition and the DT 880 PRO are identical in sound. The identical transducers are used. However, the Edition models have a slightly softer contact pressure for comfortable music enjoyment at home, while the Pro earpieces sit a little tighter on the head to stay in place even during faster movements in everyday studio life. In addition, the Pro version comes with a coiled cable and the Edition version with a stretched cable. In addition, the Edition version is available in three different impedances.
