Beyerdynamic DT 72 IE

Custom Fit with Included Accessories

The Beyerdynamic DT 72 IE come with a Kevlar-reinforced cable equipped with gold-plated MMCX connectors and flexible ear wires, plus a gold-plated 6.35 mm adapter. The gold plating prevents corrosion, ensuring consistent conductivity over time.

Five pairs of silicone ear tips and three pairs of memory foam tips allow for a personalised fit. A replacement set of cerumen protection filters is also included. Everything fits neatly into a small soft case for safe transport and storage.

High-Quality Materials and Build

Hand-assembled in Germany, the Beyerdynamic DT 72 IE feature a compact, ergonomic design. Replaceable cerumen filters protect the drivers, while the semi-transparent, smoke-coloured housings reveal parts of the driver system. Reinforced strain reliefs protect the cables from damage, and the IP68 rating ensures full dust protection and resistance to water immersion – making them stage-ready in every sense.

Impressive Frequency Range

With an impedance of just 16 ohms, a sensitivity of 114 dB SPL, and a maximum SPL of 137 dB, the Beyerdynamic DT 72 IE are well-suited to the low-power outputs of wireless IEM receivers. Noise isolation is rated at up to 39 dB, ensuring clarity even on loud stages.

The frequency response spans from a deep 5 Hz to an impressive 40 kHz. A fine-tuned dip between 200 and 500 Hz counters the occlusion effect, which can otherwise cause bass exaggeration when the ear canal is tightly sealed.

Comfortable for Long Sessions

Weighing only 3 g per earpiece and shaped for a natural fit, the Beyerdynamic DT 72 IE are comfortable for hours of use. The MMCX connectors allow quick cable replacement, and the included flexible ear wires improve stability. The 1.4 m cable length offers enough freedom for stage movement while allowing discreet routing under clothing.

Detailed Sound Even at High Volumes

Unlike other models in the range, the DT 72 IE present a restrained but natural low end, with the bass supporting rather than dominating guitars and vocals. Transparent mids – with a lift in the upper range – provide clarity and presence, while the treble is crisp, detailed, and airy.

Stereo imaging is precise, with good localisation of instruments and vocals in both width and depth. Transient reproduction is clean, maintaining dynamic detail even at high volumes without distortion. Combined with excellent noise isolation, these in-ears give vocalists and guitarists the stage clarity they need.

Conclusion

Purpose-built for guitarists and singers, the Beyerdynamic DT 72 IE deliver exactly what stage performers require: a natural bass foundation, transparent highs, and pronounced upper mids for cutting through the mix. With their extensive accessory set, hand-built German craftsmanship, high comfort, and robust design, they offer excellent value in the professional monitoring space – a true recommendation for vocalists and guitarists alike.
