Beyerdynamic DT990 PRO Open Dynamic Studio 250 Ohm Headphones

Product Information

The reduced weight of the diaphragm and moving coil result in a similar pulse characteristic as electrostatic headphones, and in combination with a carefully tailored frequency response offer a natural and balanced sound.

A frequency response of 5 - 35000 Hz is complimented with a nominal impedance of 34 ohms and maximum SPL of 119dB (nominal 99dB).

In addition, comparison of measurements between different people performing it using different configurations requires fair bit of skill. Designed for studio and 'on-the-go' use, DT240 closed back headphones offer 'deep bass, vivid mids, and clean defined highs'. The 770s, being closed-back, are noticeably more “closed-in” in terms of soundstage but, in terms of closed-back headphones per se they’re actually really rather good in this area; I’ve certainly not encountered a closed-back pair that are better (or indeed any other closed-back pair that I can actually bear - I personally much prefer open-back designs, for me the 770s are exceptions in this department). Premetto che ho diverse cuffie di varie marche (Beyerdynamic, Sony, AKG, Sennheiser, Audio Technica) entro il range dei 300 euro, che utilizzo per ascoltare musica.

Originally I bought DT990 Pro to use in my synth set-up (without a computer) but the coiled cable quickly became problematic, so I plugged it into my computer, replacing DT770 as mixing headphones. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Good quality headphones can go up to 1000s of Euros along with headphone amps and other high-end stuff, but these are both studio-grade headphones and the DT 770 Pro is a standard in good recording studios for tracking (we use them at Abbey Road Institute (Amsterdam) and Red Bull Studios Amsterdam). The wide stereo image and 3D sound reproduction make the DT 990 PRO a loyal companion for producers.This means that background noise outside the headphones remains clearly discernible even at higher volumes. I am a critical listener using these headphone for hours on end for professional use and I’ve been using these for a few weeks now in the studio. The very early (high impedance ones) even had zener diodes in anti-series to prevent maximum excursions. For me, the DT 990 had a slightly more detailed sound and better spatial accuracy, which was more important to me than the frequency spectrum.

I don't know how they will work as mixing headphones (I'm still on holiday and too lazy to check) but I can already feel that a correction curve will be necessary to at least attenuate a bit of high frequencies. If you want headphones that block out noise, then you’ll need a pair of closed-back headphones or noise canceling headphones. Really, the only reason you’d want ultra-high impedance headphones like the 600-Ohm model is if you were listening with far out-of-date equipment exclusively, as it has a high resistance.The series has been designed to cater for listening in a wide variety of environments, thanks to different headphone construction. Higher-impedance headphones used to be more popular with professionals because they were less prone to getting blown out by a too-powerful source device.

The user reports regarding the existence of the break-in phenomena can be explained as a psycho acoustic effect caused by the fact that human hearing is very good at adapting to new sounds.

I don’t rule out considering the new series in future, but for now I don’t feel I’m missing out on anything that would be game-changing, although I admit I’m curious. The cable is non-removable, so you won’t be able to sub in a third-party one or alternate connector.

With that being said, I love the by some considered sharp highs of the dt-990's, everything sounds crystal clear, not "muddy" or "washed out". Outstanding tonal depth ensures that even small changes in the positioning of the acoustic source can be perceived while mixing. This design choice is intentional, as it has a number of benefits for those mixing music or just listening to tunes in a quiet environment. I’m glad I own the Amirons, they are very nice headphones, but if I could only have one pair I must admit that I’d very happily settle for the 990s. Though the Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO won’t give your music the Beats treatment, it’s an enjoyable pair of headphones for audio enthusiasts and consumers alike.
