Hey guys, I have some money to spare, so I want to have a good portable audio setup for once. I was looking around and heard good things about the DT900 600 OHM model and it's within my budget. I however need a portable amp that can power them decently. I was considering the E7, but I'm new to...

was about to buy the 250 ohms pro ONE but I saw the 600ohms premium one.   What is the difference between 250ohm and 600 ohm one? Should that worth spending extra $150 to get premium one?   I'm using Asus xonar essence stx sound card /w built-in headphone amp that could take up to 600 ohms

Hello All,   I just received my Beyerdynamic DT990/600 Ohm headphones and have it paired with the Fiio E17.  It sounds really good but I was wondering if it was worth the upgrade to a tube amp <$200.  My budget is really tight at the moment.  I would like a WA3 or MKIV but not happening at...

I'm definitely going to purchase a pair of these, it's just a matter of which one to get. I'll be using these strictly for my desktop computer. The problem is, I only have an on-board soundcard. So there's no way it will be able to work the 600's or even 250's. However, I WILL be getting ASUS...

I'm looking to add another open headphone to my collection.  I like my DT660 (32 ohm) very much and bought it because it was closed.  I am surprised by how much sub-bass it has.  I likee.  I'd like to find an open can with that kind of sub-bass on a $500 budget limit.  I thought maybe an open...

This is my my 3rd totally new headphones that has been ordered straight from Berdynamic.   The 1st one I did alot of tests and maybe hair came through it and the speakers just died with no bass or really rattling bass.   the 2nd one I used the same headphones but I ordered 2x speakers...

I absolutely love my 990 pros (250Ohm version) which I have paired with an Asus Xonar DG sound card acting as a DAC, and a FiiO E9 as my amp. I am just looking for something else now.    I have around 200 dollars to spend. I like ALL types of music, so I like do-it-all headphones.   I...

Brand new, got them for a great deal, but I feel like the deal blinded me from understanding what I was truly buying.   These are 600ohm headphones, and all I have for an amp/dac is my fiio e11 & mbox 2.   I'm glad that these headphones are awesome, but on the other hand i feel like I...

Hello everyone.  I'm saving up for what I think would be a really good setup.  But I was wondering... The Asus Xonar ST claims to power up to 600 ohms, and many say 600 ohms is hard to drive.  Would the ST be perfectly fine for the DT990 600ohms? Or would it be more i guess. efficient? to...

You guys are awesome) and I am loving them. I paired them with a Asus xonar STX. Card became defective and they resent me my...

Hi,   I have DT 990 premium 600 ohm edition paired with Asus Phoebus. I have been using for about 3 month. This is the first time I'm going with such audio equipment and I like very much the sound: music, games, movies.   I have some (n00b) questions to other owners of this headphones...

I listen to a lot of Red Hot Chili Peppers, Guns N Roses and Prodigy - mainly RHCP - had the DT 990 Pro which I loved, got the Denon D1100 which I really like....but I want a quality open headphone now to compliment my closed backed smaller Denon cans.   Just can't decide between Beyer DT...
