## Description

Open-back headphones with transparent, spacious sound and powerful bass/treble. Soft, replaceable velour pads for high comfort. Durable, robust German-made construction.

Review: Premium headphones, with a premium price, however easily justifiable. - The comfort that these headphones provide after breaking them in for a few days is unreal, the audio quality is also crisp, with a more "fun" tone, however for streaming purposes, the open-backed design is optimal, allowing you to head your own voice more easily whilst speaking, and providing a simplistic yet optimal solution for such purposes. The build quality also justified the potentially off-putting price too, with a sturdy and robust construction with a central metal headband surrounded with an easily detachable faux leather buttoned cover. This allows for maintenance over time and for repairs if needed, defying an otherwise common practice of planned obsolescence and disruption of right-to-repair. Finally, the cable itself is very high quality, and is rather long, ensuring that it will not become an issue, whilst also seemingly being resistant to tangling and interference. The headphones weight is relatively average, perhaps on the heavier side, however once the headphones have been broken in, you almost forget you are wearing them. I use these headphones for a mixture of gaming and music listening, and i can easily say that they perform extremely well for both applications. I have been able to hear the smallest details whilst gaming with ease (such as otherwise hard-to-notice distance footsteps), and have also been able to hear small details whilst listening to music in much the same manner. Overall, I can easily recommend these headphones to anyone looking for a quality product, however I will mention that for the best experience listening, an audio interface / amplifier is recommended to reach comfortable levels at high quality. This is not as much of an issue with the 80ohm variant as with the 250ohm variant, however it should still be considered regardless.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Headphones
*by J***S on 10 December 2025*

Really clear sound and comfortable.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beyerdynamic are the best headphones in the price range
*by P***P on 8 September 2024*

Beyerdynamic are the best headphones in the price range. For those that aren’t familiar with this make … 770 series are Closed Back, 880 are Semi Open and the 990 series are Fully Open Back. They very comfortable to wear for long listening sessions. I like the Fully Open back as it gives a more Spacious sound. For the Non-Technically minded, you should know that (which ever series) … … headphones with a high ohm number need more power e.g. 990 series with 600 ohms are better for use with a hi-fi Amp or a Mixer Desk. The lower values e.g 80 ohms or lower are best suited to Music Player (MP3 etc.) and iPhones etc. High value ohms will still work with MP3 / iPhones etc. but they will just not be as loud. Some models have a “coiled cable” ( e.g. 990 pro) and others a “straight cable” (2m long). - Check it out. Are they good ? Yep :)
