DT 1990 PRO MKII - Open Studio Reference Headphones

The Beyer Dynamic DT1990 Mark 2 headphones are quite simply the best I have ever heard. They are very comfortable. They have deep and tight bass, a clear and concise midrange and and an airy, open and detailed treble that is never in any way ever sibilant. They have a wide and 3 dimensional sound stage and sound big and spacious. As well as this they are also much easier to drive with portable players as they are now only 30 ohms as opposed to 250 ohms which the mark 1 version is. They are as good as speakers at £3000 to £4000. I cannot recommend these headphones highly enough. They are in a nutshell simply excellent.

Even right out the box these are fantastically clear without overly boosting the high end. Massive improvement over my 990s and 770s. From a gaming perspective, the sound staging is incredible allowing me to hear more accurately where enemies are in FPS games and more distinction between different SFX that conveys information to me. From a music production, mixing and mastering perspective, they required a bit more balancing through EQ (I use Equaliser APO on windows with recommended settings from online) just to flatten them a bit. Most notable thing I picked up is how clear my reverb sounded in mixes and easier to hear where clarity issues in my mix were. I can't really compare these to the MK1s since I never owned a pair however the general consensus online is clearer high end details without just increasing volume

Wow ... chalk and cheese between anything I've had previously. I'm a Bass player and the bass audio quality through these is incredible... I just need to get my bass playing up to same standard .....!!

Brilliant sound very light all round very good 👍

Arrived quickly, beautifully packaged with easy start instructions. These headphones give the most detailed sound I think I have ever heard. With almost every album I have listened to so far, I have heard some detail that I haven't heard before. The overall sound is neutral and very clear to my ears, not bass heavy compared to other headphones I have had in the past, but the heartbeats at the start of Dark Side of the Moon are clear and deep! These are serious headphones, very well built, comfortable to wear for a couple of hours at least. They are cable-only connection, no bluetooth or NC software. One niggle only. The connection between the cable and phones is a kind of mini-Din three-pin plug. This is a very tight fit into the socket on the phones, insertion not too bad, but removing takes a pretty strong pull to get the cable out and you have to also press a minuscule locking button at the same time, so I have just left the 5m coiled cable attached. There is a shorter flat cable included, plus an additional set of ear pads, designed for "monitoring". You can buy some very nice, bluetooth/NC enables phones for this price, and I have such a pair. But the overall sound quality, preciseness of soundstage and the sheer depth of detail that these DT1990s give just out-perform anything I have heard to date. .

They sound awfull at high frequency cymbals sizzle or fizz not right i have other headphones they are ok also there is little bass on these for a so called studio headphone iwould not pay £50 for them

These headphones were defective and had to be returned due to a crackling sound coming from one side.

Expensive as but audio is so crispy and the manufacturing quality is out of this world! I would probably mass buy incase one broke but im not the rich…

Amazing pricing quick service Sound quality is more than amazing honestly worth my money and this will be my headphones for atleast 10 years inshalla

de geluid is goed voor streaming and gaming en ook voor film en muziek luisteren. dit waren goed nadeel was de kabel die aangesloten is op headset is lastig om te bewegen. en de doos van headset is beschadigd.

Simplesmente incrível. Comparando com meu DT770, é muito melhor em tudo - detalhamento, clareza de agudos, sub-graves e espacialidade. Uso para ouvir música (arquivos locais e streaming Ultra HD pela Amazon Music) e para jogar. É um fone com muito mais "cor" que os Sennheiser, que tem um perfil mais analítico, e eu amei isso. Acredito que é o melhor que se pode comprar sem chegar no vale do placebo. Não usei nenhum tipo de equalizador (nem nativo da DAC nem Equalizer APO) pois a assinatura sonora me agradou instantaneamente, lembrando muito o que meus IEMs de referência conseguem entregar. Não notei nenhum tipo de peak de frequências, distorções nem faixas "emboladas". Recomendadíssimo. Obs: testado usando uma DAC Topping DX5 II. Mesmo sendo "fácil" de empurrar devido a poucos Ohms, é importante tem um Amp decente. Obs2: vendedor EXCELENTE. Parabéns pela rapidez de resposta e acompanhamento do pedido!

The DT 1990 Pro MK II are a clear and significant upgrade over the DT 990 Pro 250 ohm(i had them in the past 4 years) in every meaningful way. The level of detail, separation and overall resolution is immediately noticeable, especially in complex music and gaming scenarios. Soundstage is not just wide, but far more precise and controlled, offering excellent imaging and positioning. Bass is tighter and better defined, mids are cleaner, and the treble is refined without losing the Beyerdynamic character. Build quality feels truly professional and durable, designed for long-term use. Comfort is excellent even during extended listening sessions. Paired with a proper amplifier (i have Fiio K7), these headphones truly shine. Beyerdynamic once again proves their professionalism and commitment to HIGH-END audio. Highly recommended !

Great quality and sound for gaming you should buy a sound card like the AE-7
