They are a really nice headphone. Hard to say what my exact price was. Paid $1500AU ($1167USD) for T90 Jubliee + Meier Audio Corda Jazz + Quad Link D1 DAC combo I ended up going back to the headphone shop today. Did not find a solution for the heat issue. They did mention that the DT990 earcups...

So buy brand new T90 Jubilee for $899 then replace with $70 earcups...i dont think so Returning T90 jb today so I will give your other options a try.

  Tried the DT990s out today, they were super comfortable. Did not rate the SQ though   Did not like the AKGs (K701,K712) they sit too close to your ear and the SQ is not great.   The only option from the T90 is up, not down. So spend more $$$ for either the HD800 or T1.   Think I may...

  Don't know much about customising pads, plus I think my ears would still be too large 

Hey guys, Tossing up between taking my 4 day old T90 Jubilees back to the shop for a store credit. Still in the trial period. Got these on a combo special for $1.5k (have receipt) These sound amazing but I have large ears which keep touching the pads and result in discomfort after 30-50 mins...

  Hard to find a complete package of perfection   Still have a few days to decide...cheers

  This review mentions the Sony MA900 as well as being quite a good headphone for all round use https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMbCXrFxhWY   Problem I have now is, if I take the Beyerdynamic T90 Jubilee back to the store, all I will get is a store refund. The store does not give cash...

Seems to be a lot of good reports from AKG701 and AKG712 Pro owners   Might be worth downgrading the T90s to get a little more depth in the cups

Thanks for that :) You're right about the comfort thing. Should have spent more time with akg k712 and hifiman in the shop. The t90s are great compared to my hd518, no ear sweat just a tad warm. Hd800 and akg812 is probably a bit more than I wanted to spend

  I'm looking for long use comfort and awesome sound!   The T90s are an Open Back Design but I agree they do feel like a closed design.   What would be a good pair of open headphones with velour pads?

  Hi Money4me   The pads on my T90 Jubilees are Super-Soft Microfiber (according to the box) futher research seems to reveal they are Velour. http://www.kenrockwell.com/audio/beyer/t90.htm    Earpads The earpads are covered with fuzzy velour. The pads ride around your ears, not touching...

Hey guys,   Looking for an Audiophile set of cans that won't heat up your ears.   Currently using the T90s and my ears get warm after long use.   Any advice would be amazing!   Cheers

I th Im assuming you mean the K812 ^ K712 pros are $599 at headphonic in Oz http://headphones.com.au/psingle?productID=1000 Greys even cheaper

  Q701/K701 are both a huge step down from the T90.   I'm interested in comparing the K712 PRO against the T90   T90 sounds great with my AMP (Meier Audio Corda Jazz)
