Hello folks.   I primarily listen to electronic music, specifically genres such as Dubstep, Electro House and Progressive House. I also listen to classical and jazzy music every now and then. I currently own the DT 990 Pros and are quite happy with them. I'm just looking for some new...

So I'm returning some recently bought ATH M50s and a Fiio E6 amp to Amazon. I really liked the M50s but I kept getting crackling sounds through some of my music no matter how I listened to it. Also, in general they just weren't for me. That being said, Ive got about $200 Amazon gift money and...

Hi, I have a choice of getting one of these headphones and am not sure of which one would fit my liking more. I'm not a huge fan of bass I'm more of a, "Midhead." I am aware the 990 is open air which is fine with me.    (Both are 250 ohms.)

I'm currently looking for a good place to put around $250 between a couple of potential headphones or an amp.   At the moment I am using a pair of AKG K701s, and a pair of Beyer DT770 Pro 80s depending on what I'm doing/listening to. Have an Essence STX with the headphone amp going through...

I need your help.  I am looking to buy a new set of cans to upgrade my Sennheiser 380s.  In my price range, after hours upon hours on these forums, I have identified a few headphones and would like your opinion on which ones to get. The ones I identified were the Beyerdynamic DT 880 (250 ohms)...

I love, I mean LOVE, the sparkly, crisp treble of my Beyer DT 990 600Ω headphones, but want to get a "statement" headphone that has slightly more forward midrange and perhaps (but not completely mandatory) slightly tighter, less dominating bass.  The DT 880 600Ω (which I also have) almost does...

I realize that they are both very different but long and mcquade has the beyers for $165 and I was going to pair them with a Schitt Magni. The K167s are around the same price and I've heard they have a vey wide soundstage for closed back cans. I mostly game on PC and listen to mostly rap and rock.

Hello again, sorry for "spamming" this forum but in my last thread I was asking for advice on AMP and DAC for DT 880 but things changed, I had a possiblity to listen to both 990 and 880 and decided on DT 990 (250 ohm). I was testing them both on MF M1 but it's not in my budget but it sounds...

Hello, so could you please tell me which one sound better if i will not use an amp ? DT 440 (unamped) or DT 990 Pro 250Ohm (unamped) ? In my country (czech republic) they cost DT 440 - 150$ and DT 990 Pro - 185$

Which one should i pick? I saw the He-300's online for $150 so that's a definite consideration. I listen to mostly alternative but i pretty much listen to anything. I currently have Sennheiser HD 550s, and i really like them. 

I'm considering purchasing a pair of DT990s along with an E9+E17, but have seen quite a few people mention that the 990s can be a bit "bright" for some people. Was wondering if the Fiio E17 was capable of taking a bit of the bite out of the high end to make them less fatiguing? If I'm not...

Hi, I'm a new comer to the Head-fi community and have been researching which headphones I should be buying to use with my computer (no dedicated sound card yet). I am hoping to spend no more than $300 on the headphones/amps. I was wondering what the best combination would be. I was originally...

I've got a pair of dt990s 250ohm and i love them to bits, I want to upgrade and i am looking for a good tube amp match, I'm under the impression that the schitt valhalla is a good one to go for.   is this a good idea and are there any better amps i could get?   cheers    Dave

Heyo!   I've googled a bunch and not really found anything, and figured the best choice is just to start a new thread here.   I've had my DT990's now for almost 2 weeks, and I'm generally pleased (got quite a good sound-quality improvement above my old garbage headset, as well as the...

Wondering what amps you would all suggest that would drive my DT990/600s to their full potential, that would also work with some hifiman or Audeze cans later down the road. If getting one with a built in DAC, or even a seperate external DAC would help over my TiHD, let me know. I'd probably...

Hello!   I currently own a pair of Astro A30s which I use with an Asus XONAR DG soundcard for games, movies and music. I've decided at last to upgrade my headphones to at least a newby-audiophile standard, and think that the Beyer DT 990s would serve me well.   I'll probably be getting...

Will the Beyerdynamic DT-990 Pro paired with a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi USB Sound Card sound good? Computer: Toshiba Satellite A665   Any Suggestions?

I have Sony NWZ-X1050 portable player and I want to buy new headphones. I really like 250 ohm Beyerdynamic DT990. Does the Sony NWZ-X1050 have enough power to play good with 250 ohm headphones? Is that good combination? I have no amp and I don't want to buy it.

Does anyone else think the DT990 or it's variants are not that tight on their head?   When I move my head around the ear cups sort of slide a bit on my head - not terribly, but there not snug tight?

I started my headphone journey a little over 10 years ago when I was searching the web for a good pair of DJ headphones. At the time, I couldn't afford the Sennheiser HD-25 II as I worked a summer job and spent most of my cash on my actual DJ setup (and lots of records). The next headphone that...

First off I'll start off by saying I have HFI-580's and I really am liking them for movies and more bass oriented music. Now I'm about ready for some new headphones, I've narrowed it down to the 2 in the title. I am also using a Asus Xonar STX sound card.   What a big thing for me in the new...

Long story short. Planning on getting a nice set of phones for listening to music and gaming. On this site the DT990s were said to be wonderful for my needs. But ive never used a pair of open phones. My CF GPU fans can get some what loud. Will this be a problem?

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...

I just tried out both of them today using the iBasso D-Zero I felt that the DT880 had better clarity while the DT990 had (much) better bass. Both had issues with sibilance but that's probably Beyerdynamic's style especially combined with the d-zero.   Now my question is, if I get the...
