DT 990 Edition 600 Ohm

If it is at home, I cannot recommend enough for Beyerdynamic. Get DT880 or DT990 Edition

SHP9500 phillips beyerdynamic dt990 premium. any of the beyer headphones will be fine. pick your poison, closed back or open. btw the shp9500 can be modified to have a mic attached. all the above are fine for PC. and you mentioned headphones. didnt mention “headset” beyer makes full headsets but they are expensive. alot dont like the treble either. dont get phillips shp9500 for a console. controllers arent enough for it. um….im not recommending them. they are horridly overpriced. and i consider them garbage for the price. astro headphones worked fine with glasses. anyways you didnt come here asking for sound quality advice just what doesnt suck for glasses. hyper x clouds are good. oh use velour pads. just go with hyperx clouds its cheap and gets the job done, my daughter is 11 and wears a pair with glasses too.. if they dont come with velour pads order some on hyperx website

ofcourse! i once decided down the path of finding the best ones with glasses(which i basically ordered multiple headphones from amazon) ended up with the astros….sent them all back besides those. they were expensive, but at the time the best thing i found. lol they were velour could be why. well awesome hopefully velour solves your problem 😎

DT 990 Edition is at 32 ohm, no need amp. You should read about open back Vs closed back and see the difference and which is important to you. Beyerdynamic is infamous for its exaggerated sibilance range which is the treble. Some can't handle, I didn't like it but got used to it. Definitely worth mentioning.

I have the opposite reaction. Metal sounds horrible on my 990. It's about the only genre so far I'm not happy with on 990. Are you EQing it?

Hmm that's interesting. Rage against the machine sounds amazing on it but I wouldn't say that's metal. Gojira on the other hand sounds like ass. What are you listening to? Id like to try it out

Did you use the 1990 one from the pdf? Although my 990 isn't there, I tried a different ohm one and didn't enjoy it at all. What's your secret?

I'm glad I only read about stuff like this after I bought my 990 which I think is considered the most harsh sounds? I love it. Yeah the treble is a little harsh but I got used to it in a week, I don't even notice it anymore unless I pay attention. Everything else is amazing. It's a WAY better than PC38X that people recommend every time when it comes to gaming.

Pretty much my journey. Ended with DT990 and happy with it. Still every time PC38X comes up, it gets raving reviews. I always try to interject and point out how garbage it is except for footsteps.

Looks like a DT 990 Premium to me... Nothing that would be screaming 'fake' about it IMO, but then again, that's just one picture. What makes you feel they could be?

Same. Get the non pro version though. The coiled cable is heavy and annoying lol

I would take the DT 990 Pro X. I had the DT 990 Edition myself. This allows you to locate opponents well, because of the open construction, and music sounds detailed and very spatial. The DT 990 Pro X has an improved driver and you can swap the cable, good for longevity.

The design is a matter of taste. I prefer the old one to the old one, such as the DT 900 Pro X, which looks cheaper to me. The STELLAR.45 driver provides better sound. I would prefer this to the normal version. There is also the DT 990 Edition, which also looks different if you want a certain look. A beauty is otherwise the DT 1990 Mark 1 250 Ohm, which I own, but which costs around 400 euros.

On a side note Beyer DT990 Premium / Edition is the better choice for home/personal use than Pro version (which is made for studio) .same sound,32 ohm but most importantly much more comfortable headband and less clamping force.

Beyer sells them as “Premium” in some regions and “Edition” in others — they’re the same, just different from the “Pro” line (meant for studio use). The main differences with “Pro” : softer headband, less clamping force,different cup design, impedance, and cable type. I had the Pro, but the clamp was too tight and the headband pressure point really hurt top of my head. No problem with the Edition. Pro: 32/80 ohm = straight cable, 250/600 ohm = coiled. Edition: straight cable only. Read more here: https://blog-en.beyerdynamic.com/products-in-comparison-headphones-of-the-edition-and-pro-series/
