Hi,   I’m new to the forum and but have been searching the forum about some shortlisted head phones, if you could offer your advice please?     In Short: Have HD570 need new & better ones. Tried ADH-2000. No presence, a bit shrilly, no bass kick and too much sub-bass depth for...

OK so I'm new to the Head fi scene and i finally had a good chunk of cash to buy a nice pair of headphones. i was thinking about buying the  Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro 250 Ohm. i listen to a wide range of music, anywhere from classic rock to dub step. i was wondering how theses sound and if there...

ABout a year ago I purchased a brand new pair of Beyerdynamic Dt 990 headphones which I use to play PS3  and watch blu rays with the Fiio E9 and Mixamp. They were working flawlessly until the last few weeks. When ever I start a game, I hear some static "click" sounds. It almost sounds like when...

Good morning,   I'm new to the sound scene and was hoping to get some advice so i dont blow my money on junk. Right now i'm looking at getting the Beyer Dynamic DT990 premium 600ohm Headphones with a Fiio E9 amp.   Do i need a good soundcard to make use of these? I was thinking about...

Would it be possible to wear these cans in a public place on a low/medium volume without disturbing everyone?

been shopping around for headphones to buy in a few days. i was excited because the denon d2000 is on sale again for $280. i have looked at beyerdynamics before but people usually suggest the 600ohm versions which are usually around $300 and tend to be tricky to power. i was looking recently at...

Whats a good relatively affordable tube amp that will effectively drive these three? I know the d2000 is low impedance, so I'm not sure that there is a tube amp versatile enought to drive them all. I like a wrmer sound, hence the tubes. Will the Bottlehead Crack drive all of them? What other...

Does anyone else have these headphones. I read around and everywhere people are saying that the treble is pretty bright but doesn't venture into sibilance. Well I just bought them and WOW they are VERY VERY sibilant to my ears.   People from this topic...

I'm interested in a new upgrade to help bring out the best in my Beyer DT990-600 Ohm headphones.  My setup is located in my living room and uses my AV receiver as my DAC.   Currently my main setup is as follows:   Ipod > Pioneer AV AMP via proprietary cable > Darkvoice 3322 Tube Amp >...

I'm looking to get one of these and will be auditioning them (if they are available) before getting them.   Now the problem comes with the DT990 since it comes in the 32Ω, 250Ω and 600Ω version. I don't have an amp yet nor can I borrow one but I do plan to get the Fiio E10 once I do...

I know that you can buy the exact replacements for the DT990 but I'm a cheapskate. Is there any difference between the stock pads and the ones for the DT250 that a lot of people have been using for the Htf-600?

Hello,   Just making this thread to share my personal finding on these headphones. Of course this is all personal and everyones ears are different so experiences may differ, and I'm not using a high end headphone amp so that can change experiences. (I'm using a Presonus HP4)   I'm using...

I bought the AKG Q701's and thinking about returning them as I feel like they lack bass(currently burning them in for about 70 hours and seeing if it helps). Also they just don't feel like they are worth the 300 dollars I paid. If not im looking at the denon d2000 or maybe something else.  ...

I am looking into investing some money into one of those for electronic music (dubstep, house, electro house etc..) Which one do you guys like, and think I will like based on my music? Also which amps would work well with them, because I am going to buy an amp for whichever ones I buy unless I...

I am a huge Westone fan and use the Westone 4s as my main IEM currently. Does anyone have experience with both the Westone 4 and Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro? I'm looking to upgrade my full size headphones and I'm trying to get a feel for how the Beyers sound and if I will like their signature coming...

So I got these friday. Now I have ran them through about 20 hours of dubstep, and Ronald Jenkees. I mostly listen to rock but this is besides the point...   What do you reccomend burning them in with?   My setup: Xonar DG sound card FiiO E9 And the 990 pros   Thanks in advance...

I just ordered the DT990 250ohm. Now I wonder how the E7 would work with it. Is it enough?  

Okay guys I am settling on three headphones. The Beyerdynamic DT 880 250 ohm, the Ultrasone Pro 750, the Ultrasone HFI 2400 and the Beyerdynamic DT990 32 ohm (there must be an amazing reason to spend more money on these.) Which is the best? I don't care if my headphones are open or closed. I...

Hi,   I've had an old set of DT990 headphones donated to me and since they still sound pretty good I thought about replacing the pads and a few other spares. They could do with new foam inserts to conver the drivers and the headband too.   The current headband is still functional but...

Deciding to go up in the AH-D5000 seem like a good way to go. Also considering DT990.   I'm a bit scared after trying the hd518 to go with the sennheisers 598, 558 or the 600, 650 I like punch to the sound 'impact'.   the AKG 702's are a bit lean on bass apparently...Any other...

I'm in the market for a good set of cans for my project studio.   I have been reading on these cans, their siblings, and their predecessors for the past week. I've learned alot about the similarities and differences, read review after review after review, and have come away with the...

Hi, i own a digital piano ( ROland RD700NX ) and iam currently looking for a nice headphone to play and listen to a clear sound on piano as well as to listen to many classical music styles.Which of the two would u recommend considering i wont have an Head-Amp. A BD DT990Pro 250hms or a...

I narrowed down my choices to these 2 headphones for all use purposes.  I will use them for gaming (e.g. Diablo 3 and maybe some FPS), music, and movies.  I am not picky with music and listen to classical, country, rock, hip hop etc.  Bass and vocals are pretty important to me.    It was...

Hey guys I was just wondering what I would benefit more from, here is my setup :   ASUS xonar DG straight to my new Beyerdyamics 990dt PRO 250ohm   Before I had Ficsher Audio FA-011 rated at 160ohm and the sound card was more then enough to power them nicely. On the 990dt's I have to...
