DT-990 Pro : Good but...

I bought the Beyerdynamic DT-990 Pro as my third option to reference my mix and also work with my music at night. I produce Techno and Electronic music mainly.

The comfort with this headphones are amazing, you can literally work with them for hours without fatigue, in a sense that you forget wearing headphones.

The quality is decent close to high quality standards in that range of price. The headphones are light and not heavy because of the plastic material, the only metallic piece is the one which connect them to the head holder. The downside of the quality/build for me was the cable which is not removable.

The sound is overall unbalanced!!

The low frequencies are round, warm and pleasant to listen but they lack clear definition and makes it difficult to mix.

Mid frequencies are decent like the bass clear but colourful and they are getting shadowed from the high frequencies which is the main problem with this headphones.

The high frequencies are enormous high, harsh, metallic and you can literally have fatigue despite the comfort the build is giving you.

A no go for mixing.

A small yes for listening but you might need to look for headphones amplifier and do some eq before listening to any music.
