Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO Open Studio Headphones - High-Quality Sound for Professionals Review

I have owned this headphone model for over 15 years. There were both new parties and old ones. I listened, compared with 770s, with 880s, with AKG, Sony, 800 Senh. Regarding reliability: in the old batches (I do not take into account the period with a plastic headband) there was a double wire and a slider (slider repair assy) made of strong plastic. Now - a round wire and a weak slider - which cracks when the headphones are taken by one ear. The cost of a new element is about 2 thousand. In…

Bought for normal home use. Studio headphones are designed for something else, but they are the only ones comparable in sound quality and reliability in this price range. These ears have a V-shaped frequency response, low and high frequencies are amplified. And it is felt, low give in music and games give a cool "punch". High frequencies give a bright picture and increase immersion. But the hump on the highs is really tiring, and if in a game where the shooting is not constant, the brain can…

They were taken, by and large, for testing: the model is very famous, although the reviews are contradictory, at times. It was planned to be used in tandem with Lehmann Audio BCL amplifier (clone) or Topping DX7s, players. If I liked it, I would take one for myself. The farm has already been visited by "fosteks" TH-500RP, which categorically did not suit Axelvox HD242 / Superlux HD-668B, which they seemed to like, but did not look like a gift option, but as a gift I would like something more…

Good headphones for the price. Due to the open design, they are very pleasant to use. The head does not get tired, the ears do not squeeze, do not heat up. You need a sound card, because the built-in one gives good sound only 100%, but there will still be no sound detail and beauty. In my case, the sound card is Creative BlasterX G6. She swings the headphones well, so I usually sit at 20-30%. The headphones have excellent detail, but there is a minus in this. Often you will hear flaws in the…

I decided to plunge into the audiophile sound and buy Bayers, looked at all the reviews and realized that this is what I need, the price is right, I listen to rock, metal and sometimes electronics, before them there were Kingston cloud alpha, I have a sound blaster z sound card without a casing, sound good BUT, before buying, I didn’t know or didn’t think that a closed bowl would put pressure on my ears, if you listen for a long time, it stuffs your ears a little and sweats especially in…

You must understand why you are buying these headphones! This is not multimedia, where you will enjoy the sound, these are rather specific ears that help professionals in working with sound. Out of the box, there is a very curved frequency response, which allows you to well (as far as headphones can do) rebuild the bottom and deal with the tops in the mix. If you want to get real pleasure from listening to music, or use them as a tool for general mixing, then you need to calibrate, for…

I stick into the Xenyx 802 mixer, it seems to be pulling. The sound is clear and detailed. They sit comfortably, I like that the headband setting does not fall off like on the MDR7506. On some tracks they really poke, but you get used to it, it seems to me that this was done to more clearly identify flaws in the recording. If there are flaws, they will whip you mercilessly in the face until you turn it off.

I listened in a specialized store, compared it for a long time with other models in the price category up to 20 thousand. the bass does not tire, the top in my subjective view is simply there - lively and detailed. I think it is worth considering that everyone has different perceptions, and it would be much worse if they were not. in many other instances of competitors, either they wanted to reduce the bottoms, or add tops, or they were completely uncomfortable, sitting precariously. sometimes…

I've been using headphones, if I'm not mistaken, for more than 5 years. At the beginning, it seemed to me that they emit the C sound very strongly and it cuts the ear. Now either I'm used to it (although I use 3 different headphones), or it's gone. The rest of the sound is good, in my opinion. I use PC headphones with SB Z sound card. In ASIO mode, listening to music is a pleasure. The sound is good throughout the range, there are no problems with bass either. I want to point out 2 cons: The…

Sharing my personal take.Pros: pro and hd598 - senshi just rest in sound, made in germany. Different cons: The highs are a little high, there is nothing better.

Candid review of the product.Has pros: With a good source, the sound will not disappoint. Has cons: The cord is a little tight at first, but you get used to it.

Overall, Pros: Great sound, quality materials and the best ergonomics of all the headphones I've tried (that's about 10) Has cons: There is only one drawback, visible scratches on the top of the box.

Thoughts on the purchase made.With its pros: Sound, transparency, design reliability, get tired. Cons: The ear pads are easily soiled, you need to wash, change.

excellent headphones, Before buying, I doubted for a long time due to incomprehensible reviews, I did not regret the purchase

I stick into the Xenyx 802 mixer, They sit comfortably, I like that the headband setting does not fall off like on the MDR7506 but you get used to it, they will whip you mercilessly in the face until you turn it off.

Ru For control in the studio - that' and just listening to music in them is a pleasure (by music, I did not mean pop music and mp3) before buying, I advise you to still listen to various models, since, as you know, 770 pro, most likely)

the ears do not squeeze, because the built-in one gives good sound only 100%, the sound card is Creative BlasterX G6 so I usually sit at 20-30% since the headphones are open, It doesn' these headphones will not suit you.

If you have to change ear pads, pads (not ear pads! Under them there are still pads that cover the monitors, but they are also changed, they should be in the kit) are attached with a special ring, and to remove it, let's say you have it for some reason there is xD if not, need a plastic card, if you lose this fight, Then, warm up the new ear pads a little with a hair dryer (not a construction one, of course) additional info - they are open, at which the blood will stop flowing from the ears…

If you take them for a spin without first letting them warm up, you may permanently damage the headphones' internal structure. Classical music suffers from a high frequency boost and a slight dip in the middle, making instruments like the cello sound uninspired. Acoustic and classical guitar, however, sound great without additional amplification. The headphones have a small wire inside, thus you may need to warm them up before using them. While this song isn't particularly enjoyable, the tube…

With its pros. high quality sound, these are my first closed headphones so I can not compare them with others Cons below: it is interesting that I also have a bounce in my left ear at low frequencies, as the previous author writes
