Beyerdynamic DT 797 PV Studio-hovedtelefoner

Closed-Back Broadcast Headset for Loud Environments

The Beyerdynamic DT 797 PV is a wired over-ear headset built for live moderation, broadcasting, and on-stage intercom work where ambient noise would otherwise drown out the operator. It pairs a closed circumaural headphone driver with an attached cardioid condenser microphone on a flexible boom, so a single unit handles both program monitoring and on-air talkback. The acoustic foundation is the well-known DT 770 PRO platform, retuned for the rigours of event production.

What Sets This Headset Apart

What separates this model from typical intercom headsets is the condenser microphone capsule — most broadcast headsets in this class ship with dynamic capsules, while the 797 PV uses a true condenser for a fuller, more radio-style vocal character. The cardioid pattern delivers high noise cancellation and feedback prevention, so presenters can move their head without losing level. RFI shielding protects the signal path from GSM, DECT, UMTS, and Tetra interference commonly found on event floors.

Headphone and Microphone Specifications

The driver and capsule are tuned for long sessions behind a desk or on a stage, balancing monitoring accuracy with isolation. Closed-back housings and softskin ear pads keep external sound out, while the high-impedance voice coil is matched to professional preamps.

• Nominal Impedance: 250 Ω — pairs cleanly with professional mic preamps and broadcast consoles
• Frequency Response: 5–30,000 Hz — extended range capturing low-end weight and high-frequency detail
• Nominal SPL: 100 dB — comfortable listening headroom for long mixing or moderation shifts
• Weight (without cable): 395 g — balanced for all-day wear on event duties
• Microphone Transducer: Condenser, cardioid pattern — high noise rejection and feedback resistance for live talkback

Who Should Choose This Headset

This headset is the right choice for broadcast operators, live-stream hosts, and event technicians who need accurate monitoring and a clean on-air vocal in noisy venues. It suits presenters working sports, concerts, conferences, or podcast studios where guests sit in front of a microphone without handling their own technique. The 250 Ω impedance assumes a real preamp or broadcast console rather than a phone or laptop output, so it pairs best with dedicated audio interfaces, mixers, or hardware like the Rodecaster Pro II. Upgrading from a dynamic intercom headset brings a noticeably fuller vocal character from the condenser capsule.
