Best closed headphones I had heard - very flat response, almost no midrange distortion, very easy to drive (good for portable), good soundstage (definately better than K240), good isolation, but...

Overall excellent buds, very good sound quality, especially for their price, the medium set of tips fits exactly in my ears and provides a near perfect seal. Bass is very detailed, but not...

I'll keep this very short. They are very smooth sounding. Treble toned down so not so good for rock but have a magic about them that makes them better than mark 2. I use them with a '89/'90...

Hi all,

I am looking for a pair of headphones around $200 so I can play guitar (mostly rock and metal) through my combo amp without bothering my roommates. I have found a used pair of DT 990 (600 ohm) for $200, is that a good deal? I am open to any suggestions/recommendations.

Thanks!
