- Is it a hype train, or are these headphones really that good? Today we're taking a look at the Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro headphones for gaming. These are 250 Ohm headphones that require an amp to properly power them. Let's find out if people are using them because they are Ninja's headphones, or if they are actually that good. Are they worth it? And yes...the GoXLR and GoXLR Mini can power these headphones properly.

What headphones are you currently using guys?
I have cloud alpha man , should i buy these , i play pubg and other fps games. So what do u suggest ? :) thanks
mr khan if you’re looking for an upgrade then definitely! They are well worth it for FPS games. The positional sound you get from these headphones is absolutely stunning, and you can pin point exactly where footsteps are coming from
DT 990 Pro with Ifi Zen Dac. Holy *** it's on 🔥
Phuyoon love it dude!
Hello what soundcard you suggest thanks 😁 for this headphones?
is the sound coming out of the headset loud enough to screw my microphone recording?
I'm afraid to be recording a video and instead of taking only my voice, the sound of the game will be captured as well
It’s highly possible that your mic can pickup some noise coming out of the ear cups. For me it’s not really a problem because I use a noise gate though so as long as you adjust your noise gate accordingly you should be perfectly fine.
If you’re worried about this yes. It does leak I mean it’s obvious as it’s open back, but if you are worried get the DT 770 Pro both almost the same audio, just this is closed back so it won’t leak at all
Unless you're trying to kill your hearing sound leak is completely insignificant compared to for example keyboard noises and mouse clicks.
(pretty sure you aren't afraid to breath either)
Get yourself a Hyper X quadcast and you’ll never have to worry about stuff like that
@@tuunaes lol i dont think you understand, in a studio session YOU CANT USE any open back, so it depends on the application used in, in this case its gaming so it wont matter as much but if it matters to him this much then just get the 770s.
+ its significant as it depends on the microphone polar pattern aswell, the headphone is closer to the mic than the keyboard (DEPENDS on application)
Respectfully
You can totally replace the cable, they sell replacements for around 20€. It's just a tad more complicated to replace!
what's up bro... could you send me the link on how to replace the cable or where to get one? ..thanks
actually is pretty easy to replacement so no idea what are you talking about...

Brilliant review, straight to the point and good info!! Spot on!!
Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed it!
i had DT990 Pro 250ohm, DT990 Edition 600ohm, and the DT1990 Pro 250ohm now.
I initially upgraded to the 990 Edition to avoid the coiled cable, they are a bit better in terms of detail and clarity - but to me getting rid of the coiled cable was the best.
For the DT1990 they are at a whole different price bracket at 3 times the price, they have removable cables and they come with both coiled and straight cable, and they have multiple aftermarket options for earpads which greatly change the sound.
Highly recommended for gaming and music, all 3 pairs have ecxeptional clarity, detail and a huge immersive soundstage.
All were powered by a Sound Blaster AE-5 which had no issue driving any of them, even the 600ohm pair.
think to buy 990 with soundblaster gx6 i stead of 1990 pro i am a hard gamer not dj :)
@@tordatfalviciprian5775 im thinking about getting same headset + dac did you get them if so how do you like em
dude this guy is so underated
:)
Lol I disagree he has no idea what he us talking about with these cans an is clearly used to consumer level products. Which is fine everyone has to start somewhere.
These are entry level pro audio gear the pro part isn't a gimmick label it's vastly different from consumer level gear. Eg. He states the cable is not replaceable with these headphones. Pro level gear are made with replaceability in mind they disassemble in less then 3 mins every component in them is replaceable. The cable is literally a 30 sec on off solder job to replace you can replace it with any cable you like including upgrading it to a balanced cable easily even if you've never soldered before. That's a simple difference besides sound quality you get from pro level gear.
Pro level = fix replace parts use the same headphones for 15 years+ if the sound profile is great for your ears. Which is why you should save an buy double your budget when buying pro level gear imo.
Consumer level = cord breaks, ear cup tears, switch cracks , volume rocker fails etc etc chuck out buy new gear. Majority of the time consumer level gear is a pita to fix yourself even for simple wiring an replacement drivers ear cups etc are never available.
perfect video exactly what i was looking for im going to order the dt 990 now and pair them with my goxlr mini keep up the great work!
VisionsSZN thanks man! It’s comments like this that keep me going and push me through the struggle lmao I appreciate it man :)
@visionsSZN did dt 990 pro 250 ohm work well only with go xlr mini? i don't know if shop dt 990 pro 250 ohm or not :c i already have the go xlr mini
@@scrash718 hi, did you go through w it? im in the same boat as you
@@scrash718any update?
I have these bad boys as well, phenomenal sound for music and top tier for gaming as well and I use the Soundblaster amp to help, seems pricey but its like moving up from basic turtle beaches to being in a studio. Would always recommend.
They are amazing!
what mic do you use? i have the ddt 990s and the sound blaster amp but my mic pics up the game volume from my headset!
Probably not as expensive as the crap astro gen 4s they sound crap since they no longer can use the optical cable need a hdmi optical spliter but then again if you had wired headphones and you wanna get even more from it Probably works around the same price to buy a 2nd hdmi cable my hdmi cable was pricey but futureproofed for 8k 10k audio quest carbon
The sound blaster sounds great even without the optical cable am I right but you can get better sound from optical cable it just makes sense to go optical very prcey to go with a hdmi spliter and a higher quality optical cable aswel would make these beyerdymic 990 sound even great that I bet peaple without optical are missing out on pontential sound quality there is a reason why there is a optical port on a decent quality dac amp its to get more from your headphones
I'm having problems with footsteps they get muffled out what should I do
Bru the production quality of this is insane.
Thank you!
Lol was looking at headsets for Tarkov and boom found someone reviewing the headset I was looking and playing Tarkov!
Same
hey man!
great review.
When you're gaming/streaming, does your external mic catches sound from headphones.
How do you manage that?
Thanks
It does not! It’s incredibly loud outside of the headphones. I use a Shure sm7b mic and I do use a noise gate so that helps, but I think any microphone with a decent noise gate would do this.
I've heard great things about these. But imma stick to my lovely Sennheiser HD6XX's (paired with the JDS Labs Atom) because they're just that good :)
do you use a seperate DAC with the Atom? thx
@@scarstruck85 I have it hooked up to my Focusrite Scarlett 2i4, which serves as the DAC. My setup is a little unconventional. The main outs of the Scarlet are going to my JBL monitors. I wanted to hook my headphones and my monitors up to work at the same time so I can quickly go between them. But since the RCA 1/2 out's volume is also tied to the main outs via the volume knob, I'm running the 3/4 stereo out into the Atom. Now since Windows has crap audio support and cannot send audio through two separate stereo outputs simultaneously, I use Voicemeeter Banana (which is free) in place of the Windows mixer and that allows me to output both stereo outs from the interface. I use the headphone out on the interface to run into my Subpac. The final result is that my monitors, headphones and sub all have separate outputs which allows me to control their volume independently.
This channel is going places, i have these as well and love them. Just wanted to hear your opinions!
Thanks man, really appreciate that you think that. I hope you’re right! And yes they are AWESOME.
As someone who plays Tarkov too, sound is so essential in not getting my self killed 5 mins. into the raid. I was happy you mentioned that It sounded good in tarkov as my main reason for buying these was to get better sound quality for FPS games like Tarkov. Appreciate the review!
Hopefully tarkov adds real spatial audio one day
How’s is it for you after a year?
Thank you so much bro, I was looking for someone to tell me if my go xlr mini can power it. Gave you a like 👍🏼
It is strange that you have only 6k subscribers..! I though you have 300k at least
Oh my, I wish!
Hey bro if I have a asus tuf motherboard can I plug this headset straight into the motherboard and not a amp because I heard that if you have a asus tuf motherboard the audio will be good?
I just recently picked up the DT 770 Pro's myself, which are basically the same thing, just closed-back, and could not believe the difference they made. They are amazing.
@Tristan Lavictoire Yes, one is open back and the other is closed. The point was that for me; they made a huge difference in audio fidelity over my former headset, the Logitech G933's.
They are otherwise the same technology,, It's not like one is electro-static drivers and the other standard coil drivers. the open-back nature of the 990s have a wider stereo field, but the stuff my friends say isn't always appropriate for a 4 yr olds ears, so closed back was my only real option.
@Tristan Lavictoire Yes, Wider Stereo field. I stated that. Two products from the same company under a similar lineup.
That said, using a VST plugin like Ozone 9 Elements, and the Stereoizer portion, the sound can be emulated to an extent. Not a perfect reproduction, but good enough.
Im using sennheiser HD 58x jubilee from MassDrop and love them. I have the DT990 pros also and love them just as much. but i use HD 58X as my daily drivers. I do believe they have a better sound stage then the DT 990. I would like to add i have the AD700x and there amazing as a low Ohm and can be powered by everything and sound just as good as the other 2. but i still use my HD 58X. For me there just unbeatable. The next pair of headphones i am buying is sennheiser 6XX from MassDrop. Awesome video man.
As someone who used these headphones for years now, I will say the earmuffs can get really worn out and the sliders can break/crack easily. They do sell replacement parts for the 2 and practically everything else about the headphones(you could theoretically make your own buying all their parts) but they're fairly pricey. I highly recommend those who get these headphones to be aware of the potential of the slides breaking and the ear muffs wearing out so I recommend you all to be very careful with them and take care of them properly. But overall it's really good. It does sound very quiet without an external amp. I grew up around other studio-grade headphones (mainly because my dad loves to get top-grade headphones and really picky about their sounds and he tends to give the ones he dislikes to me). I recommend those who can't get an amp because they're fairly pricey to get a different headphone (I'd recommend a Sennheiser HD598SE or something along the lines) otherwise you'd just be wasting your money on headphones that you can't get the best experience out of it.
how do u fix the slider if it breaks??
@@idkwhattoputhere5503 It's a simple unscrew and replace. The sliders are two piece sandwiched together held by two T10 screws. All you need to do is unscrew it get your new sliders and screw it back together.
Will this headset fits for csgo, rainbowsix,.... planning to purchase this but I still afraid if this will perform good. Thanks
Damn timthetatman lost a lot of weight and joined faze holy shit😂
Lmao everyday at least 5 times people say I’m Tim
I came across the channel and I was like wait a minute I had to do it bro luv the content by the way I subbed a day or two ago🙌
What amplifier do you need for the 600 ohm version? Thanks in advance 😀😀, nice videos btw!
Saw the Faze T-Shirt and nope'd out, glad I came back the day after. Very informative
Would you still need an external amp for the 80 ohm's ?
You should not need an amp.
I'd be concerned with the noise over coms if they're as loud as you say they are.
It’s not bad if you’re using a dynamic mic it doesn’t pickup the noise. A condenser mic may pickup some noise from the cans.
So is it okay if i get it without an amplifier for now or not and will it be enough if i just connect them to my old logitech sound card that came with my headset or not
I would suggest getting the amp, not sure if it’s going to work at all with that sound card. Don’t want to give you wrong information my friend
@@hammerdance ok thx
@@hammerdance and if i just connect it straight to my pc its 100% not gonna work correct?
Earned yourself another sub AND I get to binge your vids
Thanks man! Really appreciate it!
Thanks for your review. Can you please tell me how these headphones are positioned in games (COD Warzone, CS GO)?
Can you hear everything well? I don't know which one is better to choose DT 770 PRO or DT 990 PRO?
I like this
Short and sweet
Perfect
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hammer Dance you know what you got me interested and I might get into TH-cam
Hammer Dance also love your content man
I know some people are here for Christmas
I just wanna know if these work on PS4/5
DO you reccomend the 80 or 250?
250
Would this be worth it if I’m gaming on a ps4? I would like to add an amp but idk how to add an amp to a ps4. I see some amps attach to the controller
Could you compare them to the Beyerdynamic MMX 300 (2nd Gen) please? I'm a console gamer and wanted the DT 990 Pros before I found its impossible to get it to work on console. I wanted a great sounding open back headphone like the pros but there are none for console. So I need a sound comparison for the 990s and the MMX 300 from someone reliable of course!
hey there, can any1 tell me if the quarter inch jack is the normal connection for PC/ Laptop/ phone and mics? my headphones are currently plugged into my mic and it would be really annoying if they didn´t fit in there
no normal is 3.5mm these are too big
Yo, what the hell only 6.99k subs. How I would've expected something in the millions
I wish! Thank you.
Would the noise from these spill over into an SM7B mic when gaming? Not keen on being that annoying guy who's game everyone can hear when in discord.
It doesn’t! Not at all actually. I’ve been using them for years now and have never had a single issue with that. I’m actually working on a follow up video. Basically just talking about how these have held up over the years.
I use the fiio e10k with these, and they are truly amazing for gaming and especially music. I like treble so these headphones are for me!! I love it so much
Your literally a life saver dude thank you
Are you using 250 ohm version and does it sound good? I think of buying this exact amp.
@@fdrdxr926 Yeah, I'm using the 250 ohm version and I usually have to max the amp out to get to really loud levels to where it's uncomfortable, and it still sounds very clean at those level so I really reccomend the amp. Just a little warning the micro usb falls pretty easily off the amp.
Thanks for the reply. I really like these headphones, but I wasn't sure if I could power them with this amp. Now all I have to do is to buy it and enjoy good quality sound :)
Production quality of the video is A+, but this video talked about how comfortable they are for 90% of it, with a terrible way to explain the sound for about only 20 seconds sprinkled on top. Perfect example of someone who doesn't know anything about sound, saw ninja had them, and bought them with a garbage amp.
Can you plug it into a goxlr instead of an amp?
Yes mine is powered perfectly by my GoXLR Mini!
Is the sound that comes out of open back enough to break the mic as well? The mic placement is just below the chin and about 5 inches in front of the mouth.. Thanks!
You gotta be careful with it, at 5 inches you are fine. But if you are BLASTING the audio and the mic is very close to ear cups it will pickup some sound depending how sensitive you have your noise gate configured. You should be fine though, everyone has been able to make it work.
I bought these.. and they're just wayyy too quiet with my goxlr. Not sure if i'm doing something wrong but for me they just aren't loud enough :/
Since the 990s are 250ohm you will more than likely want to get an amp to run between the Go XLR and the headphones. With the right amp, these headphones can almost be unbearable in loudness. A great amp for these is the JDS atom. If you're not trying to spend a lot, there are some mini-amps out there for around $30-50, but some of them don't have preamps and are more likely to have noise upon amplification.
@@nickforsythe4618 990's come in 32, 80, 250, and 600ohm ....

yo keep this type of content coming please :)
99% of other reviews will disagree on the treble not being to shape, its ear piercing at times
yeah especially when you have a team mate, that has a bad microphone, then it can also be really annoying
I had these years ago and would get headaches. I returned them than got the AKG Q701 and was happy. I'm getting the tygr 300 which is the tamed version of the dt900 and Ill see if it gives me a headache too lol.
Can I use the headset with the GoXLR plus the Sm7b connected to the GoXLR?
Are the 80ohm version any good on console like Xbox? Or just 250 ohm on pc
The high impedance means that u need much more power for them to sound properly, for 80ohms just the console it's not enough. An amp could be used above 50ohms to hear the difference in sound quality.
A proper amp and/or DAC will increase soundquality regardless of impedence used.
The impedence roughly tells you how much power you need per volume. Though also sensitivity of the headphones is an important factor.
Long story short, the 80 Ohm should work with your console alone but I would recommend an USB dac/amp (soundcard) for the 990 pro to get them to sound properly
Does they work on PlayStation and are there 7.1 surround sound
can you recommend any good dac & amp for under 150$
schiit makes good shit and it's cheap
What am I doing wrong for the headphones not sound loud enough with the goxlr I hear the volume but it’s so low and I feel like I’m doing something wrong
Does the open back sound escape enough that your SM7b can hear it on stream?
Only if I wasn’t using a noise gate, you definitely need to have a noise gate setup for your mic with these headphones. Loud gunshots WILL bleed into your mic if you don’t lol
@@hammerdance yeah thats the only thing that I dont like about these headphones, because my friends are always saying, that they can hear, what I'm hearing.
I have a GoXLR Mini and just purchased these not knowing about the 80 Ohm version and don't really want to go through the hassle of returning them. Are you plugging them into the front or the back of the mixer?
lol I know i’m all over your channel but what editing software do you use?
I don’t mind at all mine I love the support! I use Adobe Premiere Pro
Otherwise great video but it is misleading. Firstly, dt990 highs are razor-sharp, you can't listen to music for an extended time with reasonable volume. Secondly, larger soundstage doesn't improve positional awareness, imagine does. These headphones have great soundstage AND imagine, it's rare to have set with both being good but is explainable by the openback design and sharp treble. Thirdly, even though these are 250ohm, they are pretty sensitive and CAN be powered with a motherboard(for example b450-f gaming). In my experience, even my phone (mi 9t) can power them. I'm not saying you wouldn't benefit from a great amp or dac, but it is false that they don't even produce soud when not plugged anything other than an amp. I'm not here to bash these headphones or the review, they are excellent for gaming and comfortable(personally, not the most).
How is the bass compared to something like DT770 or M50x?
@@Omarock I haven't personally tested dt770 but due the closed back design it has more bass than 990, frequency graphs claims this as true. I had m40x for a moment, they are like dt990 but extremely closed in. Difference in m40 and m50 is that m50 is bit more neutral(rtings.com fr graphs), even though they are both really colored. I'd go for dt770, if these were the options.
This review finally convinced me to get a pair of these. Sounds exactly like what I’ve been looking for. Thanks man!
Do you think they would fit for a 14 yo? I’m 14 and I’m really tryna buy this but I’m hesitating because I’m scared they gonna be too big
@@lauken8558 I don't think they're gonna be too big for you. Cause they're very lightweight and the earcups are super comfortable. The clamping force was a little too much for me in the beginning, but they really loosen up and sort of adjust to your head size after a few days. Plus the quality of them is really good so they're gonna last you for years (i even accidentally sat on them once and they're still fine lol). And since you're 14 you're obviously going to get taller and bigger eventually, so it's a good idea to buy something you can use in the future as well. Instead of buying a pair of headphones that become too small for you after a couple of years
From all the research I have done the soundblaster G6 is a perfect match for these headphones.
Hi! This is a high quality production! I love it!
Question: I'm looking at building a new rig during this summer and while at it, I wanted to move away from the typical gaming headsets, as I'm just not really feeling that they give the spatial awareness I need anymore. In addition, I work with some editing and music from time to time and I don't want to swap back and forth between sound outputs for different purposes. I'm looking at getting this headset, and also installing a Sound Blaster AE-7 internal sound card to be able to power it (and add potential extra virtualization regarding spatial awareness).
Thoughts?

how does the gable hold up and how are they with music
I've used these headphones for the past 3 years, can confirm they're awesome. The only problem is the foam cushion wears out fast depending on the length of your daily use. Once the foam is worn out, the headphones become painfully sore on the ears. For me, I have to replace the cushion every 9 months or so.
Have you tried the pads from Dekoni? If not, next time they need replacing give them a shot.
can u get the same cushion that comes with the headphones

Yes it does! We can push 150ohm headphones comfortably. If you get 250ohm-300ohm headphones, you can put your headphone amp behind GoXLR (do so responsibly) as those are really meant to have a dedicated amp anyways.
Thanks for the video! You earned a sub! :)
Appreciate that!
Hey, I have a goxlr mini and am looking at the dt990s
will it definitely power the headphones to a good level without having to crank up the volume alot?
thanks
Yeah the GoXLR mini will definitely have enough power to boost these and an XLR microphone at the same time with no problems (if you use an XLR mic :)
@@bigman8733 cheers mate!
Does it have a microphone????
It does not.
Hammer Dance
Can I put one?
Woww amazing review and i like bunny rabbit resting on my ears 😆
Can i ask which one would you pick if you had to choose between dt990pro and sennheiser hd58x jubilee ? I think this 2 headphones have similar price and also have open back design.. this make me confuse of which one should i pick between these 2. Could you tell me your thoughts about which one would you pick from this 2 headphones ? Thanks :)
This is actually a good review of the headset. He deserves more views and subs!!
I know you’re probably never see this comment but if I don’t have a go XLR and I have to resort to the power blaster thats linked in the description are the headphones even worth it?
Its genuinely surprising how this guy has only 8K subs, when I watch his vids it feels like he should have at least 200K...
Hey Hammer, can you recommend a headset? Audio technica m50x or these DT990? I play a lot of shooter games and relay a lot on sound.
Dt 990 all the way
@@hammerdance yeah but the issue is that I don't have sound card or amp so I stopped on DT 770 pro 80 Ohm
i’ve had a astro mix amp for a while now, would that work with these headphones?
I do not think it would.
It will but not near it's potential. You'd have to turn the mixamp all the way up and you'd get a medium volume.
no, they will barely work at all. Also the Fiio E10k that everyone recommends, struggles also. I have sold and got away from the DT990.. i found them uncomfortable, the treble is AWFUL and way way way too high in comparison to the other sounds, along with that, the positional audio that he says is good above, is absolutely tragic. My old £30 steel series siberia paired with an astro mix amp were better for gaming, by a long shot. I just purchased some sennheiser HD660s and the comfort, audio quality, sound imaging is MILES ahead of the DT990 i will literally never use them again, and ill use my £30 set before i go back to the 990's.
he also mentions the treble isnt sharp, i promise you, the treble is harsh, too loud and itll literally hurt your ears before you get the other sounds loud enough that you want to listen too
I know this video is 2 years old ! But I have a question regarding my current headset. I play fortnite competitive and I use the hyperx cloud stinger core… it’s just cause so much pressure and ear/head+side of head pain. I was thinking about upgrading to the hyperx cloud Alpha s, but I’m unsure. I don’t want to buy them and then have my ears/head hurting after wearing them for hours. Other headsets I was looking into was the steel series artis 5. The DT 990 seems like a headset perfect for me but the price will be a bit high considering I’d have to buy an amplifier. What should I do ?
They are good, the thing is the price for them isn’t worth it compared to some other headphones, they put price over quality when at the 990 price you can get slightly better headphones. I’ve used the 990 I prefer a brand like Sennheiser and their HD series
DevGambit I have never tried the Sennheisers I may give them a shot and then do a comparison vid
DevGambit as far as I know , for this price range 120-140$ these are the Best Buy (comfort, treble, bass , mid , soundstage, materials , etc..)
DevGambit I have bought the dt 770 pro 80 ohm (the ones with close back) for almost 120$
Sennheiser is garbage. Sennheisers have no bass, no soundstage, treble that rolls off completely after 6khz so remaining 14khz of higher frequencies in human hearing range (20hz to 20khz) arent even audible. Sennheisers are mids only, trash headphones.
@@teemuvesala9575 Same thing can be said for those too.
mixing Beyerdynamic dt 990 pro with an actual Realtek ALC 1220 high end motherboard will give you a high audio quality, but better using highe end amplificator to ensure to push the ohms on it max level to give you better audio quality, for gaming movies tv shows music soundfx overall use! if you can purchase AMP , if you are audiophile or critical use.

Mitzz I know dude. I’m almost 30 and this is still happening to me LMAO
@@hammerdance welp, it doesn't matter because I loved the review Gj👍
Mitzz thanks dude I appreciate it!
@@hammerdance Update... just bought them.. and i love emm!!
The tremble is very sharp, this is a warning!
Since I didn’t see it mentioned yet:
There‘s the 990 „Edition“ which for most users is probably the better choice. No sound difference, the only differences are:
Cable is straight rather than coiled
Clamping force is reduced for an even more comfortable sit, especially when wearing it for long durations.
As for most gaming contexts a non-coiled cable is probably less annoying, check out that one maybe.
You talking about these? www.amazon.com/dp/B0024NK344/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_fAIAEbJF2EGRV
@@hammerdance yeah, probably theyre branded differently abroad (I'm german) but those are the ones. I can see why some might see "premium" as part of the model name.
is it just not worth to buy these if u dont have a dac or amp? i wanna buy them and use them on my ps5 but everyone makes it seem like they are horrible wha ahould i do
Without proper power these will not be good. They will be extremely low and underwhelming.
@@hammerdance I have a focusrite scarlet for my xlr powered mic that gives it 48v of power. Do you know if the scarlet works as a amp?
You really gave a really good discription of the headset, love the content keep it up💪🏼
Thank you! Glad you enjoy the content.
I've heard the treble in this headset is like sharp daggers piecing your brain.
It’s sharp but I don’t find it being an Issue unless you’re blasting it at crazy high volume levels
check your motherboard audio spec's some motherboards already come with a amp installed with the sound card, and can power 250 ohm headphones. My z370 professional gaming i7 can power headphones up to 600 ohm with no external power needed.
Where did were you able to find this info? I have the z390-a pro and I wonder if mine can do this too.
yea man my mobo says it supports up to 600 ohm as well. I noticed they sound way better plugged into the mobo io then the case io. Only problem I'm facing is I have to physically unplug the speakers and plug in the headphones every time i switch.
Andrew then just get a dac / amp
Soundblaster G3 costs $50 guys buy it, its freaking amazing and has built in lossless eq that allows you to upsample the PS5 audio or xbox audio if your on console, being that Playstation and Xbox is limited to 16bit audio. With this dac you can force the audio to bigger heights 🥵
