Beyerdynamic DT990 PRO Open Dynamic Studio 250 Ohm Headphones

Product Information

The DT 990 Edition headphones for use at home and the DT 990 PRO studio headphones: Soundwise, both models are identical as they feature identically designedacoustic transducers. They are one of the most comfortable headphones with a cushioned headband, and large ear cups. The ear cups are covered with a soft and plush material. If you prefer a tight fitting, you may find the clamping force a little weak. Bought for a friend for their new studio. Tested them and the sound is much better than I anticipated. Solid and clean bass, with good spacing/imaging and clear highs. My friend is in love with them and has escalated their ability to produce music. For this price rage, I couldn't recommend them more.

Their sound quality is excellent. The 80 Ohms version is suitable for all studio applications and the 250 Ohms version is suitable for professional studio mixing and recording.Constructive disadvantage 990 - If you have a small head, watch how the headband presses the ear pads to your head.

The low end was ok in most cases. It didn't have impact, weight or transient as DT770 but it is there. This is what I thought before I moved to the other music genres. Although they have advertised 250 Ohms impedance you average smartphone can drive them pretty well to painfully strong sound pressure level. The caveat however is that if you pair them with a simple amplifier you will unleash the beast <1KHz. I was pleasantly surprised when I first tried them on my phone, then thrilled on my audio interface Komplete 2, finally the HA4 "KOMPLETED" the circle of audio pleasure. I compared them directly to Custom One Pros, Marshall Major and K-701 all four driven from the same source - Komplete 2 + HA4. I equalised the volume to the best of my perception and the DT 990s wiped the the floor with the competition.Thanks to the Tesla technology developed in Heilbronn, the DT 1990 PRO offers even finer resolution with precise and powerful bass. The PRO flagship also sets new standards in terms of wearing comfort and workmanship. However, it is not too overpowering. The treble boost is powerful and sounds sharp. The mids are mild, and the low and high frequencies are clear. To be honest, the Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro Headphones sound better than some of the best surround sound headphones. Nevertheless, if you want more power, you can couple the headphones with one of the best headphone amplifiers on the market. The Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro Headphones have excellent sound quality. There are fundamentally two differences between the models. Firstly, the Edition models have a softer headband for enjoying music at home whereas the PRO headset has a slightly firmer fit. Secondly, the Edition models come equipped with a straight cable whereas the PRO models come with a coiled cable. Made InGermany Outstanding tonal depth ensures that even small changes in the positioning of the acoustic source can be perceived while mixing. Incredible Spaciousness DT990 Pro are definitely better with non-electronic dance music genres if someone wants to buy these headphones for casual listening.
