All user reviews for the Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro

here is two weeks I use this headset. acqurir before, I had a sony mdr 7506. I must say that these headphones sound good but the best for me, is the dfinitivement beyerdynamic. Why? nas not a "pro" in headphones, I'll try to say what I find better compared to sony.
- Robustness: when beyerdynamic is in our hands, and following a inspection, it says it can not hurt headset before storing DTRE KO
- Qualities of finishing: what about has it's assembled nikel and there is no false note.
- Weight: 5 hours of work with non-stop, and my head does not suffer. It leaves almost forget this. (FYI, I have short hair)
The ears do not suffer, and that's very good. (A note of all the same beyer is open and the sony is closed the comfort point of view, is not the same).
- I do not nattribue note of ten, because the velvet beyer around the ears is "hot" and make my ears sweat.
Turning now to the sound: all just very high (145 euro entry range).
- The treble and bass are very well restitus. the sound is clear and limpid for acute, severe down the very bottom frquence.
- The spatialization of this headset is impressive, better than the sony.
- THE BIG STRONG POINT: are you listening with beyer, will be the same on your speakers ... The neutrality of this headset is excellent and sounds "real". No need to change the headphone rglages was pregnant. Rsultat: Time to win and above all listening right.
- The sound is clear: reverbs are experienced and above all it costs them lengths, delay too. EQ, compression, spatial ... for me, it's a real monitoring headphones.
In conclusion:
Possder this headphone is to keep it. For this price, the qualities and sound hats. I think the 7506 is good too, but tired ears long (you'll say normal headphones close), but above all, does not return the "real" sound. So I am convinced by what has beyer for these velvet atrium (which must be pleasant in winter certainly ...)
PS: if you opt for the version 250 ohms, I would RECOMMENDED a small amplifier.

For listening pleasure, yes!

+ Why do you use this headset (sound recording, mixing, mastering, live, studio ...)?
I used it for mixing, but the spectrum is a bit strange in the lower midrange - serious, so I now use the DT880 for mixing. But it is quite possible to make a good mix with paying attention! In contrast to the listening pleasure this headphone is pure bliss, it is soft but precise, the bass is soft and airy I love it!

+ What Does he sound insulation (do you hear outside noise from your headphones, and is what people hear the music you listen to)?
Open headphones, even very open ^ ^

It's been a while since I have this headset and it never disappoints me when I needed him.
I speak of 32ohms version and not the 250 and this is important because it makes it more versatile. Actually it can connect just anywhere due to its low impedance. But be careful because its sensitivity is not better, so the gain is not huge either.
I find his side a little better than 250ohms version, is it the better because of smaller production series? can be! Otherwise overall it's the same.
And for the comfort side of Beyer is bah, no complaints, must see!
Its price a little higher is not necessarily justified, according to the view uses.
Rating: 9/10 deserved.

I use it almost daily for almost 1 year, and I think I will ever choose this without hesitation.
Comparing with other high end headphones, the DT 990 Pro is truly the most comfortable and gives a high sound quality, very accurate at all frequencies. When listening to a good mix, the headphone becomes important because it helps distinguish each instrument in a clear and pleasant.

The downside now.
Before choosing this headset for mixing know one thing, you may be surprised or disappointed when you listen to your mix in other audio systems. This headphone is a very good control system, but you can quickly mix with misleading. I noticed on many mix that I could do for me, the mid and high frequencies were over-represented with an even greater effect on the treble.
Let me explain: when mixing, all goes well, the frequency ranges are all well represented and we soon reached a very gratifying result. This headset works well, but only for listening to this type of headphone. By changing the listening, you will realize that the mix seems muffled, with a strong defect in the treble and a representation of upper mid-range. Missed a mix really.
You only have to change your EQs on monitor speakers good quality and the correct mix and all that that implies.
When you are finished, listen to the new mix on the DT990pro, nothing will have changed, or almost. The mix is ​​always good in the headphone, which is very disturbing. It seems to me that the DT990pro does not respond well in the upper mid-range and even less in the treble. Specifically: add 2dB treble on the headphones and the sound is already very good. If you did not monitor speakers available, you could make a major mistake to mix, because you would need to add 6 dB over the same range of freqs for a natural, not stifled. In other words, dt990pro is not precise in these freqs because it reacts too quickly and too much at first and little beyond a certain threshold amplitude. It flatters the high-mid and treble. It's really hassle then to straighten the mix.
In audiophile, however, it is a real Rolls Royce. But we must know why we buy and what we will do.

Aurélien

I use this headset for over six months, and I can say with hindsight that it was a very wise choice.
I use it daily with my sound card DSP Focusrite Pro 24 (neighbors delicate!), Have tested under all conditions, while traveling in public transport, in short.

The sound quality is just amazing, I still six months after being impressed with this headset that sets the bar very high for the competition. It is remarkably accurate, fair and balanced, the smallest nuances are reproduced with extraordinary fidelity.

Deep bass and clean, to acute sharpness, this headphone is very neutral and is ideal for greater accuracy requirements.

The main downside is its high impedance and low noise isolation, which limits its use to quiet places, with a good sound output power.

Forget the idea immediately mix in the evening with, listen to anything on the plane or in a noisy subway train on an iPod. Even working next to someone who is trying to sleep is not possible, and I speak from experience! The bright side is that you can hold a conversation with someone with the headphone on his head, quite handy!

Finally, a pair of comfortable (you can work for hours without any headache), a sublime sound quality and without comparison in the same price range, but to enjoy it you need a receiver or card worthy of its name and its use is limited to relatively noisy environments.

9 / 10

The Beyer Dynamic DT 990 Pro’s are super comfortable, and the fold-up design is awesome. I've owned my pair for at least 7 years (ish) and they're just about all I've used. They're very durable and they sound REALLY good. And in fact, that is probably my only issue with the 7506. They sound too good. Pretty much every mix I've ever done with them sounds unbelievably awesome in the headset, but when the final mix is played on another system, there is much to adjust. I guess you just have to learn to compensate, but it seems like a lot of compensation especially on the lows and clarity of it all (as in the headset sounds much fuller, clearer and punchier than the mix really is). I have a set of expensive Beyer Dynamics I've owned for a long time, but never used them because they don't pump out the volume levels that the 7506 does and they don't initially sound as good. I'm going to try to make the switch to mixing with the Beyer set and see how it differs. All that to say, I still think the 7506 is a great set especially for any musicians that would be using them in the studio or on the stage (like drummers). I'm just not positive it's the best set for accurate mix representation.

They translate well, are constructed better and more comfortable than the 7506s. They are in my opinion, the best bang for the buck right now. Comfortable, rugged and most importantly, represent the mix closest to what my monitors are telling me with added detail. Prior to using the ATH-M50s the low end on my mixes was always somewhat off. In the last year that I have used these phones, my mixes have improved dramatically, specifically in the low end where the issues were. Yes, they are a $50 more but well worth it.

I have just come into possession of this device for several days and I'm dj several hours of cost.
Sennheiser HD455 Antrieurement I had (for about 4 years) because no satisfactory vritable default but an average quality of trs COST (in relation to its price therefore acceptable).
J'tais looking for a good quality headphone accessible amateur audiophile so affordable.
APRS Listen to spend several hours Sennheiser (I want to stay "Fidler" brand) and other Sony, AKG, KOSS, etc.. in a similar price range (100,200 euros), which Ancess visits to multiple stores in Paris, I found the reviews on BeyerDynamic on AudioFanzine: rsultat I DCID to test the DT770 and DT990.
Thank you those who have left a notice on these products and thus orient my RULING.
These are really great products! outstanding musical quality analytical and trs trs Fidler across the spectrum, with deep bass without the treble mdiums or disappear or become too strong Submitted volume.
Spatialization thunder.
No extraneous vibration transducers or components of the headphone even high volume.
No phnomne saturation.
In short, the choice between the two is difficult t
I finally opt for the DT990 I found better suited to the style of music usually j'coute (JAZZ, CLASSIC), this is probably the fact that the li is closed 770 and 990 open (o may also be interested in my personal perception)
Cot comfort trs is enjoyable to wear, do not wear (lightweight: 250 g), no sweat as PB with leather-like surroundings, no PB excessive compression at the ears ( pressure 2.8 N), which is essential for those who must wear glasses like me.
In short the only non-Verify is the long-term solidity of this headphone, which should not be seen in the PB and manufacturing quality matrial employees. In addition all components headsets, headband padding, etc.. are replaceable.
The only default that must accommodate itself is not the wire because of its quality but plutt that this is a real "spring" Fortunately I have an extension cord for me seems necessary to solve this PB.
In short, bought 146 euros the ratio Q / P is my opinion unbeatable.

I offered this fabulous headset a week ago ...
And since then, what happiness!
Delivered in a cardboard box, simple, and instructions (yes) in french. Thank you Mr. Beyer.
It is true that the headphone of the mouth and filled out his box.

Because we are a good deal ... a champion MONITORING
In other words, with a bandwidth: 5 to 35,000 Hz, the diffrence is felt ds the first seconds of use! Finally when I handle the low frequencies, I hear a difference. It is true that much of Journe acoutumence ncessaire is, and you're jou.
I struggled a DCID me because I made a lot of music electro, and I was afraid that this headphone is INAPPROPRIATE ... Not at all, it seems quite gn raliste and if too low as Submitted in part, on such a piece is that they will be anywhere else.
Short, short, short is a marvel to any speed between your ears.

Cel been a month since I have this product.

APRS a study grows on a purchase of monitoring according to my budget and space I have in my studio, I chose this headphone. In fact, I did not buy low-end speakers (see my budget) and prfre wait a bit because I have not the possibility to cover the much of the wall (not the mod which are open to m'interressent derrires, see: Yamaha HS 80 M.

For 150, if you want an open monitoring headphones of good quality and the choice is limited.

I tried a lot of MODEL. I do not n'apprciais AKG or Sennheiser in this price range.

It is enjoyable to wear trs, trs is rendering the report qualitprix convinquant and more than satisfactory.

I used to write my instrumentals (Reason) and for mixing tracks on Cubase. I never left branch and do even more than my amp sound system ...

Small criticism ... The cord softphone ... It's not that it is short but it is heavy ... plutt

APRS, is whether the record is better and more true than with a Sony 7506, I can not say ... but it is open!

The exprience is short but I think I would do the selection.

I use it recently prs 4 months, I use it especially for mixes, masters and also for the cost. Before I had a seinheiser HD200, I had the opportunity to cost the DT 770 professional studio, which had appeared irrprochable.

Good quality of the cost is incomparable with my old headphone, and it is very similar to my monitor speakers. The bass are Submitted, super is any neutral, the small default Młoda some caches, the cost is not at all aggressive, a real treat. For me, the cable does not bother me, even I find it more convenient because I do not roll over it with my chair wheel (at the risk of cutting the cable lol). It's true if we want to listen to away from his pc, the extension is necessary.

I recommend it especially for those who can not afford to buy monitor speakers or who have no place. With this headset I redcouvert many cd, how to say it's mesmerizing, it was even more work Envision music, we enchaine cd, hop hop, yet another ...

Great value quality price, and I know he's going to last long, even when I'm in a retirement home, I would do this choice, at least in the same mark.
Beyer thank you!
