Hey guys,   The most important features for me include directional accuracy, soundstage, and imaging. I've narrowed my options down to the AKG Q701 and Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro. While researching I keep encountering some very conflicting opinions. Which headphones do you think are the best for...

Ok, I'm stuck between the Beyer DT770 Pro M's and the DT990 Pro. I listen to a lot of metal and rap so I would like to know which ones to get for my music taste. I've listened to the beyer DT770 Pros because my friend had them but I want to get a different pair but anyways I want to know which...

There's the deal for the Aune T1 and from what I've read, it's a nice dac/amp for these headphones so long as a get a different bulb. But really, it's not a great deal after the duties and taxes, and shipping to Canada. It will easily come to $160-$190 CAD. Up until tomorrow I can still cancel...

Hello i was wondering if anybody has ever attempted to wash the felt pads on the dt 990 mine have apparently taken to absorbing sweat and are getting a bit of a foul odor.

I'm new to this, so I don't really know much about amps yet, however I know that the headphones that I currently like the most (Beyerdynamics DT990) are gonna require 250 ohms to be used at its full potential. I'm gonna use them only on my computer, not on anything else, so the amp doesn't have...

I am considering getting a new pair of headphones and as I am new to audio I'm not sure what to get. I listen to a lot of rock/metal. I like tight, heavy bass, good guitar with a lot of instrument separation. If I get the sennheisers I will be pairing them with a fiio e07k and the beyerdynamics...

I have the fiio e06 amp, and am looking to purchase the DT990 pros by Beyerdynamic (250 ohms). With this amp plugged into my iphone or pc, will there be enough drive to use these cans at full potential? Or should I consider some with less power; the Audio technica  ad990xs for example? Thanks in...

Hello people,   Please note that I have done my research (for almost 6 hours of browsing time) before I finally decided to see if I can get a better response by asking on this forum so please be gentle =P.     I've recently purchased a Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO 250 OHMs headphones, I've...

I love these headphones except for the cable. It's just heavy and awkward and I really don't see the point. Has anyone replaced it with a straight cable? Any recommended procedure?

The past couple days my dt990 produces a distinct and very annoying rattle at lower frequencies in the right ear cup only. I have tried disassembling the headphones and cleaning them, however this did not work. I have emailed beyer and they said to send them in. Does anyone have other advice or...

Review of the Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro (250ohm)                    This is my first review, and so I hope that I do well. Please note that all are opinions from a fairly inexperienced head-fi’er (see below for what I have to compare to). I am sixteen, and for the entire review, I am listening...

Hey all! Looking for some new amp recommendations!   Current setup: Beyerdynamic DT 900 Pro's Phones Matrix M-Stage AMP Audio GD NFB 3.33 DAC   Price should be around 200-300 usd.   Ive been looking into some tubeamps, but I don't know if they exceed regular amps on these price ranges...

what would be better for mixing and mastering hip hop, trap and edm? I can't decide weather to buy thr pro 2900's or the beyer dt pro 990's I'm buying one of them tonight.. please help, if it helps my main problem is that on my monitors low bass's and 808's, don't punch through the mix clearly...

I'm trying to decide between these two headphones, and my last deciding factor is which is more comfortable. Recommendations for comfy headphones below $200 would be great too.

I am looking to upgrade to a quality pair of headphones with a price range of $150-225, and I have been looking at the AKG q701, Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro, and the Sennheiser HD598. I will mainly be wearing these in my home (which is why open headphones would be fine). I am coming from a pair of...

Hey guys,   New to the site and hoping for some shopping guidance. My birthday is coming up in a couple weeks and I'm planning on getting myself the gift of a headphone upgrade.   My go-to cans are my ATH-M50's, but I also own a pair of chinsy on-ears for the gym and a couple dirt-cheap...

DT 990 PRO 250 OMHS   Is that a great price? Are these great cans?    I have a US-122L but I don't think that's going to power these things to get the best use out of them.   What amps do you recommend around $100 or less? I don't want to spend a lot, I just don't wan them to sound like...

Howdy y'all.   A little background: I'm helping out my brother in replacing his recently broken 7 year-old or so Turtle Beach 5.1 headset. He's been borrowing my Sennhesier PC163D's, and really likes the detail level but wants more bass extension.   For gaming, I see that open-back designs...

I think the above equation "sums" up my question.   Regarding budget, I'm assuming improvements on the HD600 will require entering Summit Fi territory. The LCD3/HD800 are the most expensive headphones I'd consider buying.   Depending on which headphone comes closest to the sound signature I...

Hi!   I am going to get one of these. I'll use it mostly for gaming and sometimes for movies and music. I'll be using them both on my PC and iPhone, iPad etc. My PC has a motherboard that can drive up to 300 Ohms headphones. Can you guys help me decide?          HD598 Price: 300$      ...

Greetings!   I am is looking for a quality pair of headphones. I would say my music taste is very varied, and thus I'm a bit confused. Some music that I like could be as following:   Jazzy hip hop - Nujabes, Marcus D. Bossa Nova - Stan Getz, Joao Gilberto, Jazz - Chet Baker, Miles Davis...

So I've spent a few weeks reading up on threads between the DT 880s and DT 990's as well as the comparison thread w/ videos etc ( which was an amazing read) I'm aware of most of the pros and cons on most though there are a few questions left from my side to ask as I'm on a journey ( which I get...

hi ,   I have a pair of Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro, but I do not have an amp. I usually use them to game, movies, anything. I have no idea which to buy, and I see that FiiO is really popular, but have no clue where to turn .   Recommendations are appreciated. This amp will be plugged into a...

I am looking for a full size headphone AMP/DAC for my DT990s.  I currently have a FiiO E17 but am looking for a full-size amp I can keep at my desk.  My budget is around $500.  I've read some nice things about the O2 + ODAC combo but have never heard it or know if it would be a good match.  I...

I am tired of replacing the cable on my HD600s. Perhaps I am a bit rough but I know from reading that these cables tend to die after awhile for many people, not just me. Anyway, I am considering buying some DT 990 Pros to use for everyday listening and semi-retiring my Sennheisers.   What I...
