You were spot on. The 1990 Analytical pads help bring the vocals a bit more forward (they're very recessed with stock) and it also mildy tones down the bass. It's suddenly a bit more like a T1.2 with bass. Not sure if I prefer the foam discs in or out, either is an improvement over the stock pads for me.

Totally foam disks out, sometimes i use the original pads (without disks but with rubber Fixing ring for setting the driver and the system in the cabinet ) for jazz and rock.

Where can one purchase the analytical pads?

I'm in the UK, I had to get a pair from eBay as Brexit has caused Beyerdynamic to stop shopping to UK customers directly.

Amazon might have them for you. Just need to search for DT 1990 Analytical pads, and hopefully you'll get some stockists your side of the pond.

Polar are the official UK distributor for Beyer parts, here are the pads:

Analytical: https://polar.uk.com/beyerdynamic-dt1990-velour-earpad-set-analytical-917699
Balanced: https://polar.uk.com/beyerdynamic-edt-1990vb-ear-pad-set-916900

They will both show out of stock but are available to order

Hello guys. Anyone willing to give me an advice, please?
I recently bought a pair of T1.3, it's my first real audiophile headphone, if I can say so.
I always of a fan of headphones, but never had the opportunity to listen something more substantial, till I listened to an T1 and I simply felt in love of how pleasant and gorgeous that thing sounded to my ears.
But I'm still using an old dongle I used to pair with gaming headsets (Sharkoon Gaming Dac Pro) and I'd appreciate if anyone could me suggest a dac/amp that I can use with the T1.
I appreacite in advance!

What's your budget buddy?

Unfortunately not that high.

On the long run I was planning to get the Fiio K9 pro, as I read a review on amazon of someone that really liked it when using with the T1 (I don't have the technical knowledge to choose dac/amps lol, so I was basically investigating what people were using and ended up reading reviews on amazon.)

But for now I may be expeding around 300 USD.

You don't need anything crazy for the T1.3. it's very easy to drive. Sounded great from my Fiio BTR5.

Also, if you want something for gaming as well, the SoundBlasterX G6 way outperforms it's price point. I recommend that frequently as a budget option.

I have try them with mojo, hugo and Cobalt, wich remained the only source.

Cheapest that'll get you quite far is the Apple usb-c dongle. Sounds pretty good and these don't need high voltage to get loud. And topping products are always easy to recommend, maybe dx3 pro+ for $200 is the best value from them.

I can second the basic Apple dongles (Lightning or USB-C to 3.5mm). I have a lot of them, and they really do sound good (measurements are also quite impressive given their price). Well worth a try.

 

[Twizzleshnizzle]

Aren't the Apple dongles just an adapter? So the device (phone/iPad) is powering?
