Early-Production Vintage Beyerdynamic Sound Juwel DT 480 Studio Headphones (2x200Ω) –

Pristine Condition, Coiled Cable, Professionally Serviced Drivers, Mint Hardshell Case, Installed & Extra Foams + Manual

Up for sale is an absolute pinnacle of German audio history: an exceptionally rare, early-production vintage pair of Beyerdynamic Sound Juwel DT 480 stereo headphones.

Critical Market Rarity & Value Notice:

If you are looking for a true museum-tier collector’s piece, this is it. There are only two units available on the entire global market right now. Do not mistake this listing for common, unserviced alternatives or units shipping in degraded, stinky old cardboard boxes. This specific unit is even older than the other available counterpart, featuring the highly sought-after vintage coiled studio cable and the early "Eugen Beyer" factory documentation. Hailing from this coveted early production run while remaining in absolutely pristine, immaculately preserved condition, this is the highest-value DT 480 package you will find online.

Professionally Restored & Fully Tested:

Deep Cleaned & Cleared Drivers: Foam from the 1970s naturally crumbles over time, dissolving into a sticky residue that completely destroys vintage transducers. The inner driver assemblies on this historic pair have been professionally opened, meticulously cleared, and deep cleaned of all legacy foam debris. The original bare-metal aluminum transducers are spotless and immaculate (see photos).

Tested & Working: Thanks to the professional internal servicing, they perform flawlessly. They sound absolutely fantastic with hyper-accurate, balanced stereo imaging from both the left and right sides.

Legendary 2x200Ω Spec: This highly sought-after high-impedance setup marries the legendary, ultra-neutral aluminum drivers of the famous DT 48 with the bulletproof, modular over-ear chassis design of the DT 100. An incredible reference tool for critical studio mixing or high-end audiophile listening.
