DT-990 Pro : Slightly unbalanced

15 years ago

Overall the sound of these headphones is pretty good and nicely detailed. The openness is very pleasant and the built quality is fine. However, I find the low end overblown, meaning that it sounds as if someone has upped the level of the subwoofer. So I give this headphone to people who need to be impressed with fat lows. For my own mixing and mastering needs I have acquired a Sennheiser HD800 instead. This is in a totally different price class of course, but it is also in a totally different sound quality class. Especially when used with a good headphone amplifier, like Violectric HPA V200 or SPL Phonitor.
