I'm sorry for wasting your time, but the result is no so different: I'm pushing hard low frequencies, the AKG reproduces better these frequencies and produces more dB than the DT1990 PRO which distorts at a lower volume. Have a nice day.

This is just one of the equalizer settings suggested for the JVC and is just for fun, I'm testing headphones at 360° and for certain kinds of music these settings are the best. Ok, I understand what you are saying, DT are just more sensitive to sub-bass frequencies, but this does not mean that...

I forget to told you that I'm using the "extreme" equalizer-apo preset for sub-bass frequencies, with +20 dB at 20 Hz and + 20 dB at 30 Hz (mainly used for the JVC) and -20 dB for the general Gain. The song should have these frequencies in the first 30 seconds: Young Jeezy - Put On -...

Thank you :) But in this graph DT are much superior than AKG in sub-bass freqs :triportsad:

I begin to believe I have a faulty headphone. When I try to listen "Young Jeezy - Put On" to test the headphone for very low frequencies, DT 1990 PRO are significant worse than AKG K712 PRO! Moreover, in the fourth note of this song (the lowest one) DT 1990 PRO distorts, while the AKG not. I...

I agree with you, but personally when I listen to these two headphones, I'm never thinking about price, maybe because I bought them at almost the same price (one new and one used). I also think that we are talking about two well-established brands that sell high quality products and the DT1990...

Of course everyone should pick the best headphone for their ears, but I think that there is or that there should be an objective superiority of a headset compared to another, based on materials used, transducers, price range, etc. :P

Hi, thank you for your suggest, but I bought a K712 new and already breaked in for more than 30 hours with pink noise and rock and hip hop music :) I agree with you, after about 20 hours of sounding, they changed in a better way. DT1990 PRO really impressed me at the start, but while I'm...

Hi, you are perfectly right, I can't just judge the headphone by 16 seconds of one song. I think it's not just about the song, in general it seems that AKG reproduces the guitar sound in a better and cleaner way, while the DT1990 PRO seems to reproduce it in a "dirty way". It's really hard for...

Hi guys, just a very strange question from a noob :) To those who have both DT1990 PRO and AKG K712 PRO (or similar). I'm still testing bot headphones, cause I'm not able to decide which one to keep (no, I can't keep both :D). I think and feel that in this song (from 0.20 to 0.36 minutes) the...

Hi, how do you compare the bass quantity of the DT1990 PRO vs DT770 PRO vs AKG K712 PRO? And if you have to rate that from 1 to 10? I bought K712 PRO but I found them a little bit flat for my tastes, specially for bass and I'm planning to replace them with DT1990 PRO or Fidelio X2. Thank you :)

I really don't care to be the number one on competitive gaming, but I play a lot, depending on spare times, mostly on League of Legends, FPS or RPG (such as The Witcher) and I want to enjoy sound as much as possible, I want to be "in the scene" as much as possible too. I'd like to find a middle...

Ok, thank you. What about the DT1990 PRO? Of course in comparison with K712 PRO and Fidelio X2HR.

Ok, last couple of things: should I try a good closed heaphone? Are there closed heaphone whit a great soundstage? Maybe I can give, again, a try to the DT770 80 Ohm, but I was wondering: if I would like to spend more than 120 € for a closed headphone, a better headphone than DT770 which one...

Maybe I could do that: returning to Amazon the Logitech G933, Logitech G533 and HyperX Cloud Flight. Buy another couple of headphone and compare the AKG K712 with them. I think that possible options could be Beyerdynamic DT990 (250 or 600 ohm with the Magni 2 Uber?) and the Philips Fidelio X2HR...

No one in this forum told me that the k712 has the widest soundstage under 1000, I just read this kind of information googling. In particular, I read that k702 has just a little bit wider soundstage and that you need to buy something like HD800 to have a wider soundstage. Which model do you...

Thank you for your suggestes. I will try the test you linked. As concerns for the soundstage positioning, sorry it does not want to be a lack of trust in you, I read, almost everywhere, that the positioning in this headphone is great, lower only to K702 and some Audiotecnica. Reading that, led...

Hi, yesterday I received the K712 Pro, these are my thoughts (for additional details about, please read this discussion). It would be silly to say that I can not perceive the sound quality, but the problem is that it is not so high compared to HyperX Cloud Flight. Where is the much-vaunted wide...

Thank you for your analysis, but in my country I can't get HD6XX or HD58X easily. I didn't see your answer in time and ordered the K712 because is lighter than the X2HR, just received and tested for almost 4 hours. It would be silly to say that I can not perceive the sound quality, but the...

What about the comfort for long session gaming? K712 PRO: 235g Fidelio X2HR: 380g

The mod you linked would be expensive for me and I'm in Italy so I should pay taxes for shipping. How the K712 compares with Logitech G933 or the Cloud Flight? Of course they will have a much wider sound stage as good as sound quality, but as regards bass? I'm searching for a half way between...

I passed 4 hours searching on the web and I found that the best cans under 250 € should be: - K712 PRO - DT990 PRO - Sennheiser HD599 - Fidelio X2HR (used on Amazon) Sennheiser should be the "worst" of them. DT990 PRO should have good bass but not a wide sound stage. K712 PRO really good sound...

Disclaimer: before starting I want to specify that I am far from being an audiophile. I'm really confused and this post will be very long, so please excuse my in advance, especially for my English errors :) Hi, in the last month i bought Logitech G933 and G533 and the HyperX Cloud Flight just to...

With my SZ1000 (HM5 Angled Leather Pads), Schiit Modi 2 + Magni 2 Uber, I'm using Equalizer APO + Peace as GUI. This is my profile for hip hop songs, and I couldn't be happier: When I listen to Pop and Rock songs I'm using these settings, but I'm not very happy with: Even if I try to do a...

Which of these case fits for SZ1000? https://www.amazon.it/Ciaoed-archiviazione-Portaoggetti-Portatile-auricolare/dp/B01ISJ3YUW/ https://www.amazon.it/MDR-ZX100-ZX102DPV-Sennheiser-Headphone-Carrying/dp/B00JVFS020/...
