In our test, they impressed with powerful bass, detailed mid-range, open treble, a fine stereo image and equally fine low frequencies.

After looking at some headphones and ignoring some and taking other advice from this audio board, I landed at an attractive deal from beyerdynamic, offering the DT 990 Pro not only in black and a good bit cheaper but also with an Impedance of 80 Ohms rather than the usual 250. I also remember the old Shure 840, I sold them because of the weight) Although they were closed, they were very cool. The single-sided cable allows you to put the headphones on and take them off frequently without tangling cables.Known as “the studio legends”, the DT 990 Pro, along with the DT 770 Pro and DT 880 Pro, is widely known across the globe as the industry standard studio headphone. The beyerdynamic DT990 PRO headphones have gained popularity and recognition among music producers, sound engineers, broadcasters and are used in studios around the world. Outstanding tonal depth ensures that even small changes in the positioning of the acoustic source can be perceived while mixing.

First of all, they are distinguished by the black design elements and secondly, the Black Edition model is equipped with a straight 3m cable and the standard version with a spiral cable.Overall, it’s hard not to recommend the Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro headphones to anyone looking for headphones that prioritize sound quality and comfort. 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. It’s not a problem if you’re plugging into an audio interface or computer, but not good news for smartphones or portable players. The 80 ohm drivers are great for use in studios with audio interfaces, mixers, Macbooks, headphone amps and more while offering greater compatibility than the standard 250 ohm model.
