beyerdynamic DT 900 PRO X Reviews

Best headphones I've ever used

Really well built, the sound is phenomenal. The fit was a bit tight at first, but now all great

Works!

Very comfortable to wear even over longer times and sounds excellent.

Very happy with the product

Build quality is good, feels premium and sturdy. Sound is amazing and clear on the full spectrum. Clamping can be uncomfortable at first, but I got used to it during the first day of use. Good cans for the price.

Headset sounds great but the construction of the headband is not durable.

I bought this headset on 2021/11/27. A year and a half later the faux leather on the headband started peeling so I went through a warranty return to get it repaired. After shipping and waiting a few weeks, I got the headset back repaired with no issues. A year later I ran into more problems. The plastic that channels the wire from the left and right earcups into the headband has cracked. Due to the crack, part of the headband protrudes out, this can be felt when wearing the headset. Going through another warranty return to hopefully get it fixed.

Not as I expected

I expected more quallity for the price. While the sound is very nice with nice articulation in the upper mids the build quallity is not very good. One "mini xlr" cable died after just few months. And I was very carefull while carrying the headphones from place to place. The "leather" head cushion started to fall of as well. The headphones starting to look worse then my 7 years old Sennheisser HD75. Also I dont understand the point of having some custom "mini XLR" instead of jack cable. I know it is beacause of money from the spare parts.

A whole new world!

I am a musician, composer and singer-songwriter who prefers ornate music such as orchestral metal/fusion pieces. They're usually consisting of a number of sections of instruments/voices.

I needed a new pair of headphones for mixing and mastering these types of songs.

I was advised these by an audiophile, and when i plugged them in, I absolutely was transported to the cave of wonders! So much depth, so much space, so much clarity, so much balance. I can easily add 10 more sections to my music and hear even if one of the softer instruments so much as makes a dissonant note. Besides, they don't need much of an amplifier to run as well. In the end, absolutely wonderful, way more than worth the price, and i will hundred percent recommend these to any person for mixing and mastering!

Review after two years:

The headphones are overall pretty good.

The comfort is definitely very good, I can wear these headphones for hours and I don't feel any discomfort.

The sound profile of these headphones are neutral, have very good imaging, but smaller than expected sound stage.

The quality is i think is its weak point, they are overall good, but some parts of it have issues. If you get these headphones, you will have to get a headband replacement after some time.

I also have a small issue with the cable, where if i move it to the side, my left headphone stops playing audio and there is some creaking sound while moving a one headphone to the side.

Do note that these issues were happening from the start, no new issues have appeared since i got them.

Massive step up in quality!

These headphones are amazing. I purchased them thinking I might get a small upgrade on my gaming headset but these are like nothing I've ever used. People aren't lying when they say you can literally hear every little thing perfectly.

Staple Headphones

The quality is phenomenal, and the comfort is excellent.

Other than that, the sound is excellent from a subjective point of view. It sounds colorful and alive. All of this while being very flat from an objective point of view. Great for mixing, great for music, great for gaming.

Everyone can get something out of this headphones.

Love it

Impressive sound quality, and amazing comfort.

The audio feels balanced and detailed.

Been wearing the headphones during long periods of video editing sessions and they are comfortable to wear during the entire time. I also don't feel as tired as when I work with closed-back headphones.

This model feels durable and the ability to detach cables is just the cherry on top of the cake. Very well-rounded headphones for the price.

Fantastic studio headphone

Great build quality, Good sound

BEST AUDIO EVER

I'm kelvin a Dj based in Nairobi Kenya.

I love good music and for sure I made no mistake when I chose the Beyerdynamic DT900 PRO X Headphones. They have made both my live mixes and post-recording mixes more balanced than ever before.

If you need good music, it resides on Beyerdynamics.

best overhead headphones so far

super comfortable and very exact sound also at high volumes

Unexpected!

Pretty good sound. It was unbelievable, when i take this low-resistance headphones and they sounds so good! I have put in laptop, in my mobile phone, (and also with usb-c to 3.5 jack), in Focusrite card, and everywhere i need above 50% of volume. The scene in these headphones has very big width, also it is very comfortable. I love this one and recommend it to everyone. I use it for 6+hours every day and it feels amazing. My respect from Ukraine!

Very good, but not enough for studio

The headphones are perfect crafted, very comfortable and strong. The only problem for me was the sound which is not flat enough for mixing and mastering. Anyway it’s a very good product!

Recommended

Sound, comfort and build quality are all at least 8 out of 10.

The price-quality ratio is excellent, most likely some of the best out there.

WOW

I really fell in love with this model

Very balanced

SUPER happy with this purchase, as a previous user of dt770 pro I loved and Austrian audio Hi-55s, I am so much more pleased with these for Production! the 900s although open back its not as noticeable as you might think and such a nice experience overall, and very balanced especially with Sonarworks Sound id!

Best in Price

Comfortable with gear ear space making them ideal for long session, As is the benefit of "open" back.

Detachable wire is also a great addition allowing alternate lengths and types such as coiled to be options.

Soundwise I find them to be very truthful to the audio and sound as you would expect when working on audio. No false lowend and a true midrange.

Good sound, bad craftsmanship

Have no any complains on sound quality and neutrality. However, build quality... Have those quite expensive headphones less than a year, using only in home studio by myself and faux leather holding foam padding on headband already unglued, foam is loose. Made in Germany? It's just sad.
