For decades, our PRO headphones have set the benchmark in professional recording studios worldwide. They are the first choice for artists, creators and audio experts, and have come to be regarded as the reference standard. Our wide range of products includes headphones for all applications, such as recording, mixing and mastering, as well as for podcasting and broadcasting.

The Reference for the Studio: The wide stereo image and balanced, transparent sound makes the DT 990 PRO a reliable reference point in the studio and a trusted companion for producers and audio engineers. The DT 990 PRO is a reliable tool for studio monitoring, mixing and mastering, as the highly sensitive transducers ensure the smallest adjustments in panning, EQ or dynamics can be easily heard. Spacious, Open Design: With its open design, the DT 990 PRO has an airy, spacious sound with a sense of depth and ambiance that complements room acoustics captured in recordings.

The low frequencies are precise and powerful, without being overbearing, while top end is clear and very present without sounding shrill.

The cable, which is attached on just one side, accommodates frequent adjustment and removal of the DT 990 PRO without cable tangles.

If you're like me, then you probably spend hours and hours researching different products, comparing the prices and the pros and cons of many products. Headphones included. For me, I have had a set of AD900x headphones for a few years, and the cable gave out, so I opted to try a new set of headphones. It was down to 3 choices within the same price range, all open back. The Sennheiser HD599, The Beyerdynamic DT990, or just settling for another pair of AD900x's. (Sadly couldn't really consider anything AKG because every model I saw in the same price range required an amp.) I don't know whether to call myself an audiophile or not, but I would like to say that I pay very close attention to sound, and its very important to me. Perhaps the most crucial part of a headphone for obvious reasons. I'm not a professional, just an average guy that loves/has good sound equipment. I would like to offer some clarification, at least that my ears have heard, as I have had the opportunity to own all 3 sets due to some circumstances that Ill discuss later. Here's a comparison with the 3 different headphones I was in the market for. Sennheiser HD599: Pleasant. These headphones to my ears are designed to sound pleasant, not necessarily accurate. At first I was worried about that, especially hearing about the signature "Sennheiser Veil" That everyone talks about. I'm pleased to say that despite my worries, they did an amazing job with what they were marketed for. They do have a small "Veil" That some people may or may not like, but the veil is essentially to my ears a cut in the high mid frequencies. These are the frequencies that are very harsh, and the high highs are still perfectly sparkly and sounded very nice. I found myself going to these headphones for relaxation and for pure enjoyment. You could definitely fall asleep wearing them as many have said. I recommend these headphones for ones that want to relax or have a "milder" sound with their setup. To my ears they seem to have the most bass out of the 3 as well. Again, I was afraid I would not like them because I was afraid that I would not like the sound signature of them, but I was very pleased. Unfortunately, I had to return them due to a defect which made the balance shift to the right side that made it louder. They were a used set, which is something to keep in mind. AD900x: Natural. The best selling point of these headphones in my opinion are their soundstage. Its the best soundstage I've heard out of the 3. And they also to my ears have the most neutral tuning out of the 3 headphones. They are also incredibly comfortable, despite their "gimmicky" Headband design, I actually quite liked them a lot. As much as 4 years worth to be exact. This design made them very light, so many times I would forget that they were on my head. I find myself using these headphones if I want to feel like I am in the room with whatever I'm listening to. They had enough treble to get the job done which I enjoyed. The bass is also there, although a little light. I feel that with the amazing soundstage, some detail had to be sacrificed, including the bass. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I recommend these headphones for ones that want the most neutral sound out of the 3, and who want superior soundstage, who don't mind a small loss of detail. Like feeling like you are actually walking through that forest, or that you're actually there listening to the orchestra. DT990: Detailed. It seems that these headphones are designed mainly for studio production. And if that's the case, I wholeheartedly recommend these headphones, which is what I'm currently using now. The ones that I got were the 80 ohm edition if that matters. I have it plugged straight into my motherboard. These headphones offer the most details out of the 3, which I really like. Due to the defect in the Sennheisers mentioned above, I decided to try these. I was very worried about the treble response that everyone keeps complaining about, but decided to bite the bullet, as I could easily EQ it out. I'm pleased to say that for my ears, that is not an issue. In fact, if people hadn't been complaining about it, I probably wouldn't have noticed it. Yes, they are nice and bright, but I like them. Its like a speaker with tweeters vs without. COULD it be harsh? I suppose perhaps, but its not so much making the treble overwhelming, more so reproducing it much more effectively. Again to MY ears. If I want to hear exactly where my opponent is coming from, or exactly how loud I should have a certain track in my mixes, or even just listening for things I haven't heard before in songs I like a lot, I find myself using these headphones. I also find these headphones to have a better bass response then the AD900x's. I recommend these headphones for anyone that wants to hear every little detail of whatever they're listening to, especially useful for producing or mixing audio. Conclusion: My personal favorites are the DT990s for their excellent detail in their sound. They are also extremely comfortable due to their amazing ear pads. But you cannot go wrong with any of the above mentioned sets. They are all excellent sets, and do what they are made for, and do it well. If you have a preference having one feature over another, then I recommend going with the headphone that suits your need the best. But i will say the DT990s have a build quality and sound quality to my ears that is hard to match. Nutshell: Sennheiser HD599: Comfort Audio Technica AD900X's : Soundstage Beyerdynamic DT990s: Details Hope this was able to help everyone who reads this. I had many questions and hopefully this can help others who have similar questions. Cheers!

TLDR; Amazing pinpoint accurate gaming headphones that are also good for music and movies. Comfortable as well. Only downside is the non detachable cable. Full review: Having owned countless gaming headsets, I was never satisfied with how they sounded. Then I decided to take a deeper step into the audio world. I spent a week straight doing research about headphones and audio gear, as well as watching & reading comparisons between certain headphones by quite a few people to get a general idea of what stuff really sounded like. I had originally settled on the Philips X2HR because of the comfort and the detachable cable, but the sound just didn’t give me the clarity that I was looking for. I then purchased the Sennheiser HD 560s, and while they did sound great, they were extremely uncomfortable on my head (I have short hair and the top padding dug into my head). I then decided to get the DT990 Pro, but was a bit hesitant because of the non detachable cable. Upon seeing that they can easily be modded to have one, I wasn’t worried about it anymore. After receiving them, I was a bit skeptical, as the “DT990 Pro” text on the outer ears was different than all the other pictures I’ve seen of this headphone. The font was different. I also wasn’t hearing any of that “beyer peak” in the treble that I was reading about. I’m still not sure if they are legit, as I've never owned a pair before. However, upon messaging the seller, they confirmed that they are legit and that the 80 Ohm variant has a different sound signature than the 250 ohm. I’ll just have to take their word for it I guess. Regardless, these headphones are a MAJOR UPGRADE in sound compared to various turtle beach, astro, hyperx, etc, headsets that I've owned. I can hear everything separately in the games I play (COD, Apex, Fortnite, and Various Single Player Games). Footsteps aren’t drowned out by other sounds, and I can very easily pinpoint where they’re coming from. The DT990 Pro, as well as a decent amount of other “audiophile” grade headphones will “lack bass” vs your usual gaming headset, but once you get used to the sound, you’ll understand why that extreme bass was a hindrance in competitive multiplayer games. You *might* need a headphone amp even with the 80 Ohm (definitely need one with the 250 Ohm), as my onboard pc audio was too low for me and I had to buy one to get the volume that I wanted them at. Now in terms of build quality (minus the non detachable cable), these things seem virtually indestructible. The entire headband (under the comfortable padding) is made of metal, and the ear-cups are made of a thick durable plastic. I did hear about the ear pads wearing out fast, but you can always buy replacement ones. Overall this is an excellent headphone for gaming, movies, and music in my opinion, although some male vocals can seem a bit lacking. This is the perfect all rounder headphone with an especially great sound for gaming.

Got tired of my AKG K240's only lasting a year from heavy use before a driver going out or ear-pad plastic coming un-done, so switched to these. They are a tad big heavier I do believe (not by much), but the build quality is far superior and still sound fantastic. Have already cleaned the ear-pads once and was happy to see the construction allows you to easily clean them and replace parts. Hopefully these last much longer than my old AKG's.

The sound quality is excellent! They're insanely comfortable and don't hurt my ears after long wear. They feel hefty but not heavy. Very robust.

TL;DR: Really solid sounding headphones for that 1-3 hundred price range. Can’t complain so far. Fit, quality, and sound immersion are above my expectations for the price. Would highly recommend for everyday listeners who want dedicated headphones! Great for glasses wearers too, though they are quite large (see image). —General Impressions I have been using these headphones for my main PC setup for about a week now, and I am super happy with them. I am not an audiophile, nor a “big producer,” but I do enjoy very high quality sound. They have a very clear and clean sound, and when paired with a digital-to-analog converter (DAC), they are very tunable for your liking. Without tuning they do lack that punchy bass if you are used to that, but they can push some out for sure once tuned. More than you would need unless you are a big bass-head. Others have complained about the highs being too harsh, but I haven’t noticed anything like that as an average listener. They sound really good in my opinion. If you are looking for “fun” or “expressive” headphones, these probably aren’t for you (unless you want to EQ them), but they are perfect for an everyday desktop pair. Solid for gaming, music, streaming, etc. They connect instantly with a normal 3.5mm jack, and it does come with a larger standard audio jack to plug into a real musicians equipment or audio interface (way above my skillset). Super simple and easy to use for basically any application. —Fit: I have quite a round head, and they fit me very comfortably. These work well with my glasses, and don’t create uncomfortable pressure points on my head. They have a looser clamping force, but they don’t feel like they are going to slide off either. The ear pads are very comfortable in my opinion, and I have had absolutely zero issues wearing them for hours at a time. There has been moments when I even forget they are on because of how immersive they are combined with how comfortable they feel. I also have relatively large ears apparently (my ears touched the driver on the sennheiser 560s), and my ear fits very comfortably inside these without any rubbing or pressure. —Dislikes/Cons: I do wish these had a removable cable on the headphones themselves, but that isn’t a big problem for my application where they are not being transported often. The sound quality is good on their own, but you can’t really get the true potential of the headphones without a DAC+preamp or a really good sound card. This does make the true cost a bit higher if you want the best sound, but still sub $300. These are open back, so little-to-no noise canceling, which doesn’t bother me for my application, but still something to consider.

My husband uses these every single day he loves them. Very great value for what you pay for and the material is soft and the fit is great. They’re also very noise canceling. Whenever I come to his office he can barely hear me if I talk to him.
