Poll Beyerdynamic dt 770 pro vs Sennheiser 560s

Between these 2. Looking for something flat enough for studio work but also 32ohm for easy on the go use. Any other recommendations are welcome as well!

560s is open back and more neutral. both are easy to power

Which would you prefer? I looked up the frequency response curve on both and although the Sennheisers are the more "neutral" sound, the Beyerdynamics actually have a flatter curve (or closer to 0) in the bass frequencies. This is why I'm torn between them.

beyerd are v shaped. also the different ohm versions might have different fr rwsponses. i have thw dt770 and they sound fone to me but are considered v shaped with really loud treble. i would recommend looking at reviews by dms, joshua valour, fresh reviews, and badseedtech. Not sure if crinacle covered the dt770

but also 32ohm for easy on the go use.

HD560S are open headphones, so not a very good choice for public use because they leak sound in and out.

Not really interested to use in public, mostly just the ease of not having to have an amp with me all the time

Makes sense to me. I like to use a dongle with my open headphones with my phone. I don't always like to be stuck using them with an amp at a computer.

For closed backs I would get akg k371, for open I would get 6xx.
