    I sold a gift card to David -- perfectly smooth transaction! We agreed on a price, did a quick check to make sure the gift card would transfer, and he sent the funds right away. Couldn't have been easier; I'd gladly deal with David again!

    Checking if anyone here would be interested in buying a Headphones.com electronic gift card at a discount. The gift card is worth $528.94, but I'm asking for $450 (including PayPal G&S fees). A good opportunity to save some money if you've had your eye on some new headphones! The background...

    I've got this Asetek 645LT small form factor liquid CPU cooler, with an Intel 115x / 13xx retention kit, that I purchased for a PC build, but I didn't end up using it. It's in perfectly good functional condition; other than the copper heatsink plate having a few markings from where it was...

    Up for sale is a like-new Schiit Fulla 4 combination DAC and headphone amplifier. I purchased this new about a year ago with the intent of using it for console video gaming. I've since sold my consoles and have gone exclusively to PC gaming, where I already have a Grace m9XX to handle...

    Up for sale is a used pair of AKG K7XX headphones in very good condition. I find I'm not using them that often these days, so it's time to pass them along to a new owner. The headphones haven't seen a lot of use, so the ear pads and headband elastics are in excellent shape. They do seem to have...

    Up for sale is a NAD M51 balanced DAC / preamplifier in very good condition. I purchased this new from Audio Advisor several years ago and it has served admirably in my speaker system ever since. Recently though, my speaker amplifier died and I switched to an integrated unit with a built-in DAC...

    Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO - Beyer's open-back mastering headphone

    I find the DT1990 and DT880 similar in the amount of ear space they have -- my ears rest just a bit against the foam in front of the driver. If the DT880 bothered you, the DT1990 probably would too.   The T1 is definitely one of the best Beyer headphones for ear space, since it has the angled...

    Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO - Beyer's open-back mastering headphone

      That's what I'm using and it sounds great -- tight, clean sound with plenty of power. I use an impedance adapter when listening with my DT 1990, which I think gives just a tiny bit more bass response (though I might be kidding myself that I can hear any difference, it's very small if...

    Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO - Beyer's open-back mastering headphone

      Which pads are you using? I found the balanced pads to be a little bit fatiguing, but I can listen with the analytical pads for hours without any problems.   I'm running a Schiit Asgard 2 here, with some inline resistors on the output (which help fill in the bass just a touch more, while...

    Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO - Beyer's open-back mastering headphone

    I've never been an audio engineer or done any mixing and mastering, but of all the headphones I've heard the DT1990 (with analytical pads) or the HD650 would be my top picks for a neutral reference. I'd pick these over the HD598, HD600, HD800, K612, K712, DT880, DT1770, T1, R10, Elear, Utopia...

    Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO - Beyer's open-back mastering headphone

      I had the same problem with the DT880 -- always had to extend it out as far as it would go. The DT1990 extends about three clicks further on each side than the DT880 did, by my estimation.

    Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO - Beyer's open-back mastering headphone

      I get what you're saying about the smoother response with the analytical pads. While the balanced pads are more exciting and dynamic, I also think the sound might be a little bit fatiguing for me. The analytical pads tone things down for an easier listening experience that is still quite...

    Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO - Beyer's open-back mastering headphone

    I'll add that I just swapped over to the "analytical" pads, and I'm liking them quite a bit. Now the DT1990 almost sounds like a corrected version of the DT880, very neutral overall. With the analytical pads, the DT1990 loses some bass response, but it still has a little bit more bass than the...

    Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO - Beyer's open-back mastering headphone

    I've been listening to my newly-received DT1990 for the past couple of hours on both my Asgard 2 and my also newly-received A20. I've also given my DT880/600 and my HD598 a try on both amps. Here are some initial impressions:   BUILD: Beyerdynamic has always had great build quality, and the...

    Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO - Beyer's open-back mastering headphone

      I'll post some impressions today of the DT1990 with both the A20 and the Asgard 2. Unfortunately impressions with the Valhalla 2 will have to wait -- it's currently back at Schiit to repair/replace a buzzing transformer. Hopefully I should have it back in about a week or so.

    Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO - Beyer's open-back mastering headphone

      I actually just bought this bundle -- should be arriving via FedEx sometime today. I had been looking for a decent deal on the DT1990 since I heard it at RMAF, and this one was finally compelling enough for me to bite. Separately, these components sell for $1100, so $700 isn't bad. They even...

    Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO - Beyer's open-back mastering headphone

    I can offer some listening impressions of the Elear vs. DT1990 vs. Amiron -- I don't currently own any of them, but I did get the opportunity to hear all three recently at RMAF. Keep in mind that I only heard these headphones in meet conditions. As such, I wasn't able to get a very good idea of...
