The DT 990 (all versions) has a "V"shaped EQ.
The 558 has the same drivers as the 598.
The DT 880 is an excellent can and the former Beyer flagship. It is usually priced close to the 598 these days. It is an analytical can and will make crappy recordings sound just that way. The Senns are much more forgiving.
Guys, real fast, since I'll be buying a new headphone in 2 days.
I was really sure of getting a HD558 for my needs. Mostly gaming. I thought of it the perfect match for me at that price range.
But... I just looked at Amazon, and I sat a DT990 PRO (250 Ohms) for 200 dollars. Only 15 dollars more than the HD558. And that got me thinking.
The DT990 seems way expensiver than the HD558.
Mad Lust Envy's guide shows that the HD598 outrates the DT990 PRO version. But does the PRO outrates the HD558? Or Since the HD558 is quite close to the HD598, it is still better? Also, on the "Holy Grail of Gaming" thread, the guy says the DT880 is the "best" he tested, outrating even the AD700. That's what got me thinking about the DT990.
What would you guys recommend?
