  • Unbelievable headphones!!
Size: 250 OHM Color: Gray
I finally decided to take the plunge into a really nice set of headphones - my nicest set previously was a set of $60 Sennheiser HD 429's. While those were decent, they didn't come anywhere close to some of the high end cans that I had tried and I got tired of being disappointed every time I listened to music or watched a movie with them. After months of shopping around online and reading reviews I decided to visit a music store to try some out. After all my due diligence I had settled on the Audio-Technica ATH-M50S but I didn't buy them at the store since I knew I could get them online for cheaper. Well, when I went to buy them here on Amazon I read through a few reviews and saw Beyerdynamics mentioned over and over again, and after reading a lot about them I decided that I wanted to spend a few more bucks and try out the DT-990 Pro 250 Ohm. It was a bit of a risk since I hadn't tried them in person but knew I could return them if not happy with them. Well, they showed up today - in fact I'm listening to them right now - and let me just say that as soon as I finish this review I'm going to buy another pair for my wife. Bottom line: WOW! The sound that these headphones produce is the most open, deep, detailed, crystal clear sound that I have ever heard. I was a bit concerned about the 250ohm rating at first because I didn't know if my gear would be able to drive them without an amp, but both my PC and Oknyo receiver can power them with no problem. I do have to crank it to about 80% of max volume on my PC to get the sound level that I want, so I'll still probably invest in an amp to be able to drive them at a lower level for cleaner sound. I also want to be able to use them with my wife in the theater room after the kids have gone to bed and I'll need a multi-channel amp to do that. But holy cow these things have low hitting bass, the midrange is tight and crystal clear, and the highs are powerful but not overpowering. They are very well balanced. So far I've listened to some rap/hip-hop, metal, emo, classical, and even opera, and these things shine with any genre! I am so excited to watch a movie them. I really like the open back and I think that'll be nice when watching a movie with the wife so we can still talk to each other without having to completely remove the headphones. These are worth every penny if you're in the market for a nice high-end set of headphones. The only drawback is that you can clearly hear everything that you're listening to on the outside due to the open back, and I imagine they won't block outside noise very well, but I just plan to use them at home in a quiet environment like my office or theater room where it won't matter if they leak a little sound and there won't be any ambient noise to worry about. P.S. Forgot to talk about comfort, which is OFF THE CHARTS! They a have nice furry covers which are extremely comfortable, the clamping pressure isn't too tight, and I FINALLY found a set of cans that has openings big enough to fit my huge ears! With the M50S that I was going to buy my ears hurt after demoing them for about 20 minutes, and the clamping pressure was pretty tight but I read you can stretch them out to improve that. But I've been wearing these straight out of the box for nearly 2 hours now and just took them off and I don't even feel like I've been wearing anything. That is so much better than the normal 5-10 minutes of aching ears after taking off pretty much any other set of headphones that I have ever used. So if you have large ears or a big head these are perfect for you! ... show more

  • Highly recommend
Size: 80 OHM Color: Gray
I purchased these headsets to replace my 5 year old hyperx cloud flight headphones. I wanted a nice upgrade and after extensive research i decided to purchase these. Upon receiving them i immediately noticed how comfortable they were, i wear glasses and it does not bother me that much. Build quality feels amazing and it also has a lengthy cable which i like. i also mainly game and occasionally listen to music on the pc. I went for the 80ohm version and realized it sounded low even at max volume, went ahead and purchased a small amp for it and wow, im amazed with every sound it picks up. Everything sounds very smooth and clean. Definitely worth the upgrade. ... show more

  • Pinpoint accurate headphones for gaming
Size: 80 OHM Color: Gray
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. ... show more
