All user reviews of 5/5 for the Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro

Hello everyone, my opinion on this product is "excellence" I use it for a long time, about 10 years, it just all just give up the ghost at a listener and even, I ask myself if it does not come from my use .... it's been 10 years that buzzing in my ears and it does not Miolles, 10 it is true to his jack, 10 years that supports cries of the 96 kHz sound card rme db arrogant and short it is with regret that I will have to find a replacement to the same .... am bleuffer the quality of this product is not .... for nothing that we perceive these headphones often in radio interviews or even "music "..... it is my view on this product that competitors are based ...... good investment at all .....

it's more than 10 years since I bought it, I have been quite mixed with, excellent headphones, deep bass, it goes down super low, super treble defined purpose, a super short report is a real pleasure. Reliable, I use it not every day but almost and he never failed in the meantime I changed the ear 2 times in 10 years that the foam was tired, given the frequency of use c is normal, can still be found especially in Thotho.
I've been using tailgating is my reference when I mix and a great listening pleasure, it is quite comfortable, sometimes I mix several hours at once and I end up forgetting almost.
I have not compared to other headphones of this quality at that time there was a Beyer Sehneiser but lower down in the bass but hey I never wanted to try something else.
I had paid 1600Fr and I regret it, the day he snaps, I repeat the same.
Funny thing, I saw him many times in the studio of TV and radio, as what ...

I use it for several months and works currently only on the Death Metal music. I had an earlier Sony MDR-7506 (too aggressive for my taste) and an AKG K 141 Studio, but I found much below the DT 990 Pro, and anyway I dropped very quickly.
The DT 990 Pro is super comfortable, the music seems full and balanced listening. It is perfect also for controlled low because my monitors (Focal CMS 50) do not descend so low.
When the cost, it seems perfectly justified, and the day he let me go, I again if he always does. I love this product so I also invested in the DT770M Pro and for my other needs.

I have two years now, and I tried a mix session with a 770 and this one 5 years ago.
The memory was so tenacious that I needed one!

I tried the Sony MDR notament often cited as a reference ... but honestly I do not understand why.
This headphone meets one would expect from a studio headphone: stereo impressive, extended frequency response, a little round in the bass it is true, but it falls down, and it does really. Very good dynamic and fun ride listening.

It completes me a pair of Adam S1A ... I can essentially control the bass level, stereo balance, the fine details of reverbs ... and not bother anyone if I want to work late.
Indeed, despite my efforts to treat the room with diffuser and rock wool, sometimes I have a heavy hand on the grave, this headset gives me the second opinion I need.

Another advantage: when I accept someone you can communicate without having to remove the headphone all the time, it is open, and I think it's practical.

The headphone seems to me affordable, it is even doubtful at first! The only downside I have for a year the appearance of a loose connection from time to time.

I mixed the klezmer, metal, rock, slam, electro ... I do not see how it should best suited for some style ... probably a matter of taste.
So the choice I would do without hesitation, I have not heard better at that price.

I just remember that this is an open headphone use ... in a quiet environment only!

1.Since how long do you use?
I use it now for 1 month.
2.avi you tried many other models before buying it?
Before purchasing this headset, I owned a Sony MDR-V500DJ. The latter was so disappointed by the sound reproduction, either at low or overall sound quality, I had a little afraid to invest in new headphones. That's why I turned on the side of headphones ITE, including Sony and Sennheiser, the rendering is far superior to anything I've tested before.

Launched me in creating music (Cubase), and not wishing to invest in monitoring speakers, I could not continue to work with headphones ITE. After consulting with numerous review sites and forums - including Audiofanzine - I decided to buy the Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro.

Well ... Just awesome! Its a very linear, very clear, very clean ... No matter what style of music.

As for the bass for fans of Electro-House, Drum'n'Bass, Dubstep, etc.. like me, do not worry, they are not developed, but these are well!
3.What is the characteristic you love most, the least?
+ Overall quality of sound.
Price unbeatable.
+ Comfort of the headphone (I'm always impressed by the extreme lightness of the headphone and the comfort that provide the atria velvet).
+ Print Finishing overall robustness, design.

- It's not really a minus, but the fact that this headphone is opened, low volume all external sounds are perceived. But fans can rest assured decibels when the volume is pushed up, it becomes difficult to hear something.
- As a result, these headphones are not made for planners glued to their iPods and other players, because that headphone may be uncomfortable for people quickly around you, the music you hear is easily audible to your neighbors subway, bus or whatever, classmates.
- Risk to suffer in summer, because the atria ... But we do not step ... And in the opposite case, they keep you warm in winter: D
4.How would you rate the quality / price?
Excellent, no better.
5.Avec experience, you do again this election?
Without any worries.
In short, a brilliant headphone at all levels!

I have this headphone for 4 years now so I think I can give a clear and honest.
It is simply PERFECT! I use it for production, mix, games, movies and fun ... And so far nothing has disappointed me.
We hear everything very clearly, and without modification (or very very very slightly).
Moreover, once the head is no longer felt the weight of the headphone. (I use 4 / 5 hours non-stop daily)
The foam has lost its sheen after 4 years, but it is always nice and the headphones seem almost new (and yet he lived)

Honestly, I wanted to buy something at a time because I expected to find even better. But even in the high ranges above, this headset is easily distinguished.

A choice I referrer should he one day messing around, but given the robustness of the thing, I think I still have for 4 / 5 years with!

I've been using it for one year.
I'm very satisfied.
Consistent and well balanced response. It's not linear, the low and high-end are a bit emphasized. But the sound is very natural and consistent without any cut or boost. Once you know how it sounds, you'll have no problems. It's very important.
Good stereo imaging with a lot of "air".
The dynamic response is faithful.
What about transient response? These headphones showed me what transients are. It's very impressive and it enhance the stereo imaging. When punch is needed, you get punch.

The first time I used it, I wanted to send it back because I found the sound awful... After one day of use, the sound became amazing... It had to be run in...

My mixes became much better... I hardly use my HS80 anymore...

The headphones are very comfortable.

Sound description after listening to some CDs:
Very good reproduction of acoustic and electric basses: smooth, precise, controlled. Kick drum and bass are clearly separated. (with good recordings)
Electric guitars get good transients. (vintage guitars sound amazing with a lot of warmth). The headphones reproduce the warmth of the recordings.
The low-end of a church organ seems to be a bit too emphasized.
Very good for classical music. The noise of older recordings is not disturbing at all and it's no hinder to extract details (which are very well reproduced). Very good dynamic response and sound precision.
"Real" stereo recordings are very well reproduced.
Electronic music gets very tight lows.
For the first time ever, I could hear the difference between a 320kb/s MP3 and the original file in CD format. I made the experience as a blind test! I recognized the MP3 file through its transient response...

So, yes, I would buy it again... Maybe I would buy closed headphones as a complement...
