LOL. Here is the full side. 
 


 
Looks like Amazon/USPS have changed their way of packaging.

Hook them up to your phone, your computer. You won't hurt them. See what happens. :)

Oh, and if you or a friend has an audio/video receiver or integrated amp for speakers, those usually drive 250 ohm headphone pretty well.

Sweet. I wasn't sure how they will sound without an amp. Will it give it a shot. 
 
I have a Yamaha HTR 3064 receiver. Would that work? Please tell me YES!

Good chance it would drive them well. Hard to know (receiver manufacturers are not very forth coming about the headphone amp potential--it's kind of a crapshoot). But Yamaha does have Silent Cinema on your receiver, which is a virtual surround for headphones feature. Try it with a good movie :)

Glad to help. I'm going to sit down and watch the Imitation Game. Not really a headphone movie, though.

If you want to have fun with bass, be sure to try one of the four to five star movies from this list: http://www.avsforum.com/forum/113-subwoofers-bass-transducers/1333462-new-master-list-bass-movies-frequency-charts.html

I use an iBasso D-Zero Mk2 for my laptop and phone dac/amp duties. It drives the DT 990 Pro 250ohm just fine. I've been very happy with its performance. Not a desktop unit but it sure does a great job in my opinion. Cost should be around 119.

Do you happen to know where the item was made? I couldn't find the information from their website.
