DT-990 Pro : The best headphones I've ever worn

I've been using these headphones for about a year now and I love them.

The first test I gave them was to listen to some old mixes I had made. I picked one song of which I had done multiple bounces, listened to the first and then the second. Instantly I noticed the high end was far nicer and overall was much clearer and defined than the other mix. I then checked the files and realised they were the same mix, the first was max quality MP3 bounce and the second was WAV.

I've been able to tell lower quality mp3 from wav but I've never INSTANTLY heard so much that was missing.

Then I wore them for nearly 2 hours doing housework to test the comfort level and nearly forgot I was wearing them.

I have a problem with the cartilage in my right ear, if anything puts even the slightest pressure on my right ear for more than about 20mins it really starts to hurt. I wear these regularly for hours mixing, writing, and gaming and have no issues.

The sound is open and very clear. and the stereo image is brilliantly imaged.

While perfect for mixing/mastering, they are open backed so the spill makes them not great for tracking vocals and the isolation is not great, so wearing them on the bus may annoy anyone sitting next to you.

The construction is pretty good, I don't take them out of the studio often so I can't say for sure if they'd stand up to being hauled around everywhere. But the seem pretty solid.
