Review on Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO Open Studio Headphones - High-Quality Sound for Professionals by Ghazali Dikir
A good product, more pros than cons.
In general, it’s a mystery to me, why turn up the tweeter like that and fail the lower middle, how can you call it monitor headphones? The volume in conjunction with the Focusrite Saffire 6 USB 2.0 is weak, but you can work. But this is not a minus of headphones. If I mixed only on them, without monitors, I would just miss. By the way, I decided to imitate the sound of headphones on my monitors, I achieved similarity when I set EQ on the master and lifted it up by 12 dB (!), after 1 KHz. And then the lower middle sounded more real. I decided to test the headphones with the usual Realtek sound built into the motherboard. The sound is the same as from my prof. sound, volume at the same level. This is a note to those who believe all audiophiles and are ready to run for an amplifier.
- The quality of the materials and the headphones themselves are very pleasing, there is nothing to complain about, made in Germany. Bottom, normal, suits me. At least you can understand whether the barrel has a bottom or not, and I don’t need more from the ears in this range. Very high sound intelligibility.
- After warming up, in conjunction with the Focusrite Saffire 6 USB 2.0, I can say that I’m not sure if I would buy them again or not . The tops and upper mids just cut my sensitive hearing like a knife. The lower middle failed, probably due to such a strong rise in the treble. Therefore, it will not be possible to feel the warmth of the sound. You can't hang headphones around your neck! They squeeze it, so you won’t endure this position of the headphones for more than 1-5 minutes. After a longer warm-up, the sound got better. The high frequencies are not so sharp, but everything else remains unchanged, the question of the "monitoring" of these ears is open to me.
