beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO Over-Ear Wired Studio Headphones (Black)

This headphone is so perfect! I play games - valorant mainly- and the imaging on these headsets are TOP NOTCH , it’s been a few days since I’ve received it and my hs% rose quite significantly (from 25% to 32%) and it’s pretty affordable compared to other premium headphones , this is definitely worth the price tag and the design is so comfortable that I can sit for hours without any headaches/neck pain , the soft cushions and headrest allow the product to fit any head shape (also can be adjusted height wise) , functionality wise the headset excels at what it does , not just for gaming but for music/video watching too! After playing back some songs I listen to regularly I was able to hear certain segments which I couldn’t hear previous on my previous headset.The wire is nicely coiled up and is very stretchy so I can move around freely without any worry.Overall: 9.8/10Price: 9/10Functionality: 9.9/10Comfort: 10/10DO NOTE THE 250 OHM VERSION REQUIRES A DAC/AMP. I am currently using a Audio interface (Scarlett solo 3rd gen) though it’s not as powerful as an amp it gets the job done perfectly.

* The DT 900 Pro is immediately more 'fun' to listen to than the HD 560S for music. They are not geared toward an analytical listening experience, in comparison.* Upper mids are less forward than the HD 560S, which is a detriment for comp gaming, but better for musicality depending on taste.* Bass is beefier than the HD 560S, which is great for experiential gaming and music.* The soundstage is narrower compared to the HD 560S. You know you're wearing headphones with these cans; the enclosures aren't as open, thus less 'airy', and are a touch veiled in comparison to the HD 560S.* They're heavier than the ultra-light HD 560s, but the clamp and plush pads mitigate that. It doesn't really feel much heavier. The plush pads are particularly comfy, but I prefer over-ear nature of the HD 560S compared to the on-ear of 900 Pro.* I had a particularly hard time playing Warzone 2.0 with these. Certain weapon gunfire frequencies shredded my ears compared to the HD 560S, which is because of the sharp 6kHz peak that the 900 Pro exhibit, which climbs rapidly from a comparatively recessed midrange. Not pleasant.* Furthermore, the added bass and 'stuffier' presentation overall just wasn't ideal for keeping player locations coherent, unless I applied EQ.My conclusion won't be a surprise: the DT 900 Pro are going back. They are admittedly more fun for music, but the less-open nature, extra bass, and treble spikes, are sub-optimal for competitive gaming. Plus, personally, I love the flat, analytical presentation of the HD 560S for music, so I'm happy to hand back the fun.

As mixing and mastering engineer this is best headphones for great quality.

I have 2 DT990 250ohm purchased @ 2020 & 2024. Same headphones, but different sound signature (& different bayerdynamic logos). Older one is awesome. Later one is muddy, not so defined sound, thin sounding, muddy low end.Didn't expect this from a renowned company like Bayerdynamic.

Loved these headphones.Beyerdynamics is a smart innovator and knows how to satisfy their customers with their crystal clear & dynamic sound.Great Bass , Mids and Highs.It's a bit bulky to put on but it's what you'd expect from a production headphone. 🎧DT-990 is a classical piece of pristine architecture.Worth absolutely every buck.
