Hours of practice, intense rehearsals – all for the moment that truly matters. The DT 72 IE was specially developed for guitarists and vocalists who want every note to resonate with emotion. Its finely tuned sound signature brings vocals and guitar to the forefront – transparent, present, and full of character. Handmade in Germany. For your perfect performance.
Developed for Guitarists and singer
The DT 72 IE is designed for guitarists and vocalists who demand the highest sound quality. Its subtle bass provides a stable foundation without overpowering the low frequencies. The optimised frequency response (200–500 Hz) prevents the occlusion effect that occurs when an in-ear headphone seals the ear canal. Slightly elevated upper mids enhance the presence of guitar and vocals, while refined treble delivers brilliance without harshness.
Headphones from beyerdynamic have been with me throughout my entire musical career. I primarily use the DT series models in the studio. Thanks to the new in-ear series, I can now experience this sound quality on stage as well.

Reference sound thanks to innovative driver design
The heart of the DT 72 IE is the TESLA.11 driver system, crafted in Germany and superior to conventional balanced armature systems. It delivers outstanding detail resolution with minimal distortion (THD: 0.02%). Thanks to its high impulse fidelity, acoustic events are reproduced with precision. With up to 137 dB sound pressure, the DT 72 IE is among the most powerful and low-distortion in-ear monitors on the market.
Better fit = better sound
Many in-ear monitors fit poorly due to large driver systems, affecting sound quality and isolation. The DT 72 IE solves this with its space-saving TESLA.11 driver and an ergonomic design based on hundreds of MRI ear scans. It is more compact than comparable models, offering excellent sound, high isolation, and optimal comfort. For maximum flexibility, the package includes five silicone and three Complyâ„¢ memory foam ear tips.
Excellent sound isolation
Live stages and event halls can be extremely loud. Therefore, it’s crucial that a high-quality in-ear monitor delivers excellent sound quality and protects your hearing from long-term damage. The DT 72 IE has passive sound isolation of -39dB, making it one of the leading systems on the market.
MASTERS STUDIO, STAGE AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN
The DT 72 IE was developed with sound engineers and effortlessly handles the demands of studio and live use. Its high-quality cable minimises structure-borne noise, while the gold-plated MMCX connector provides a more stable connection than 2-pin alternatives. Additionally, the DT 72 IE is dust and waterproof to IP68 standards.
PROFESSIONAL IN-EAR-MONITOR HANDMADE IN GERMANY
The DT 72 IE is crafted by experts in Heilbronn, embodying the quality that has defined beyerdynamic for decades. Its hand-assembled driver system undergoes multiple tests to ensure maximum precision. Thanks to this commitment to quality, it effortlessly handles even the most demanding live and studio applications.

Are the DT in-ear models custom-fitted earphones or universal-fit earphones?

The clicking sound is caused by air compression in the ear canal when the ear tips create a seal. This sound is harmless and disappears once the monitors are correctly positioned and pressure equalises.
